Nyah $30 per hour for 1 child

I am a thoughtful, calm, and adaptable individual with a genuine passion for working with young children. For two years, I worked at an Early Learning Center at a private school in NYC, with a focus on early childhood ages 2-5. My background also includes an internship at Headstart and experience at a pediatric dental office, providing me a well-rounded foundation in child-focused environments. I am currently pursuing my MSW at NYU with the goal of becoming an elementary school social worker.

Emily $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm 28 years old and currently an MSW student at Fordham University with over 10 years of experience working with children of all ages. I've worked with families in their homes, in after-school programs, and in child advocacy. I truly enjoy building relationships with the families I work with and creating a fun, safe, and supportive environment for kids. I'm happy to help with whatever makes your day a little easier—whether that's keeping your children engaged, helping with homework, preparing simple meals, getting them safely to and from activities, or pitching in with household tasks like dishes, laundry, and light tidying. I also offer pet sitting and house sitting and know how important it is to have someone reliable caring for your home and pets while you're away. I'm dependable, organized, and easy to communicate with, and I always treat your home with respect. I know how much trust goes into finding the right caregiver, and I don't take that lightly. My goal is to make sure your children, pets, and home are well cared for so you can have peace of mind. I have references available upon request, and I'd love the opportunity to get to know your family!
