Hi, I’m Yulma. I’ve been a full-time babysitter for about 10 years, caring for children from newborns to age 13 (part-time and full-time). I’m gentle, patient, trustworthy, and hands-on. I love helping kids grow socially, emotionally, cognitively, and physically. I keep children engaged and active: we read, play games, do crafts, and get outside. I especially love taking kids to museums and the park, planning playdates, and creating fun routines at home. I’m happy to help with light meal prep, spanish language speaking, baths, and bedtime. I have some college coursework in Early Childhood Education, Kids on the Spectrum training, and Baby & Pediatric First Aid certification. I’m experienced with special needs and provide calm, structured, sensory-friendly care. I can share three strong references from current families. I work across the Upper East Side, Upper West Side, and Harlem, and I’m willing to travel further if needed. I will love your children like they’re my own—and keep them learning, laughing, and moving. I look forward to connecting!

“Yulma was very sweet and patient with my little boy, who was especially fussy that morning (probably has a tooth coming in). She wasn't fazed by his grumpiness and stayed positive throughout her time with him, playing, singing, and staying communicative.”

Hi! I’m currently going into my junior year of college and have several years of experience working with children of different ages. I’ve worked at a daycare since 2022, where I’ve gained hands-on experience caring for children, planning activities, keeping them engaged, and creating a fun, safe, and supportive environment. I’m responsible, patient, caring, and energetic, and I genuinely love working with kids! I enjoy getting to know each child’s personality and interests, whether that means doing arts and crafts, playing outside, helping with homework, playing games, or just spending time with them. My experience at a daycare has also made me comfortable caring for multiple children at once and handling the different routines and responsibilities that come with childcare. I’m looking forward to connecting with families and providing dependable care while making sure their children feel comfortable, safe, and have fun!

Hello! I'm a writing professor at CUNY during the academic year, available over the summer to take thoughtful and attentive care of your children. I love working with kids for the same reasons I love teaching writing: creating a compassionate and structured environment for young people to follow their interests and curiosities with joy. I approach caregiving with energy and humor, and outside of work, I love cooking new recipes, exercising, and taking improv comedy classes.

Amina $15 per hour for 1 child

Hiii ✨ My name is Mina, and I’m a 21-year-old caregiver with several years of experience working with children of all ages. I’m a former preschool teacher and currently working toward becoming a Behavior Technician (RBT), where I’m learning new skills to support children’s growth, communication, and overall development. I’m passionate about creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment while also encouraging learning through everyday activities. Whether it’s helping with routines, engaging in play, or supporting emotional needs, I always aim to make children feel comfortable and cared for. As for my availability, I’m available in the mornings Monday through Friday, and I’m fully available all day on Wednesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays, and Sundays. I’d love the opportunity to support your family and provide reliable, thoughtful care! —>> 🐾 Client & Safety Policy First-Time Walks: For large, shy, reactive, or nervous dogs, a meet-and-greet with the owner present is required before solo walks begin. Leash & Handling Policy: If a dog cannot be safely leashed or shows defensive behavior (growling, snapping, lunging, repeated close-proximity barking), I reserve the right to cancel the session for safety reasons. The full session rate will still apply, as the time slot and travel have been reserved. Health & Behavioral Disclosure: Clients must disclose if a dog is in heat, has a history of leash resistance, or has shown defensive behavior toward new handlers. Undisclosed conditions that prevent safe handling may result in cancellation with full charge. I am fully background-checked, patient, reliable, nurturing, and very accommodating to each family’s needs. I love creating a safe, fun, and engaging environment where children can feel comfortable, supported, and happy. If you live a distance away and need urgent care, I kindly ask that transportation be covered via Lyft or Uber. I do have mild cat allergies, but I don’t mind being around pets — I may just be sneezing a bit! 😅 Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions, concerns, or would like to get to know me better. I’d love the opportunity to support your family and help care for your little ones!
