Anya $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Anya! I’m a New York City native offering child care, dog-sitting, and house-sitting services across the city. I know every neighborhood and train line like the back of my hand! I hold a BFA with a minor in Business Marketing and currently work a corporate 9-to-5, but I’ve always loved caring for kids. I babysat throughout college and grew up as the eldest of two younger brothers. I also frequently babysit my 12-year-old niece. I work in digital media, so I know all about the latest kid trends - huge fan of K Pop Demon Hunters! I’m responsible, creative, and patient, and I love keeping kids engaged with fun activities like art projects, games, or chess. I cook healthy meals, speak two languages, and am great with dogs (but allergic to cats). I also played volleyball throughout high school, so I'm familiar with sports and a huge advocate for fitness. Also happy to help with homework! I excelled at math, English, and history. Reliable, nurturing, and upbeat. I live in the city, so open to last-minute babysitting needs!

Caley $25 per hour for 1 child

I am 31-years-old with over 15 years of experience working with children! I just completed my MFA in Theater Directing at UT Austin and relocated back to Brooklyn, NY. I am passionate about reading, love art and music, and I am kind, calm, fun and reliable. Currently, I'm looking for part-time, occasional, and date night sitting in the Brooklyn area. I've worked as a long term babysitter for a family with three young children - 6-year-old twins and a 2-year-old - and as a date night sitter for children from 3 months to 10 years. Most recently, I worked for as a part-time afterschool nanny for 4-year-old twins in Brooklyn. In college, I worked as Preschool teaching assistant and have experience with Early Childhood Education and Development coursework. I've also spent three summers as a camp counselor for kids entering Kindergarten. I am CPR & First Aid certified.

John $25 per hour for 1 child

I am a recent graduate from Wesleyan University, where I studied Sociology and Italian. I successfully coordinated and taught my cherished after-school enrichment program—Cardinal Kids—where I worked with students age 5 to 12. Not only was this program enrichment-focused, but I learned what it means to make an impact and be a role model for younger minds. I have always wanted to be a big sibling-esque person to someone—I am the youngest in my family, and adored having all my older siblings and cousins as role models for me. During my teenage years, I lived with my single mom, who is the most caring woman ever. She taught me everything I need to know. She cared for my Gram in her final years, and I assisted with a lot of her healthcare needs—driving to and from appointments, administering medicine/diabetes shots, cooking, cleaning, assisting mobility, etc. All that said, I am well-experienced across many areas of care. It would be my pleasure to make a difference for you, however I can. I can also offer writing and language tutoring—as well as basic science and math principles.
