Anisa 1 review

Hi! My name is Anisa. I work evenings and take classes part-time in Midtown. I am offering child care services to families. With my current work/class schedule, I am generally available Wednesdays until midday (around 3:30p) and on weekends (Saturday/Sunday). I’ve been babysitting for my family since 2024. I have experience watching an eight-year-old child (now a preteen) and a toddler (three years old). I enjoy the arts, acting, dancing, singing, playing all kinds of games, going for walks outside in nature, and anything that stimulates the imagination. I am familiar with tasks such as homework help, managing medication, bathroom hygiene and potty maintenance, feeding, changing, bathing, and picking up/driving from school. I am not currently Adult/Child/Infant CPR & First Aid certified but am willing and actively looking into getting my certification asap. I can also help with basic household chores if necessary. And I grew up around dogs, cats, birds (parrots) and fish, so I am comfortable working around or with common household pets if there are any in the house with your kids. I am Pet First Aid & CPR certified as well.

“Anisa is one of the most thoughtful and caring people I've ever worked with - consistently kind, considerate and even-tempered.”

Hi my name is Angela and I am currently a stay at home wife. I am offering childcare in your home and household services. I love being a sitter to children of any age group. I enjoy singing lullabies to newborns as much as counting numbers and things to coloring and reading books with toddlers, the joy I get from reading to children 😊 I have cleaned many homes, from vacuuming to laundry to organizing and also run errands (walking distance) because I don’t drive. Most importantly I am very loving towards children and trustworthy and respectful to the children as well as their parents and household. Thank you, Angela

“We hired Angela to substitute for our regular nanny when she took six weeks leave. Angela stepped in and immediately made our kids feel comfortable and safe. They took to her right away and even after six weeks they are always glad to see her. She has a handle on them at all times - her guidance and nurturing of them has been impeccable. She did art projects with them, played on the floor with them, read with them, and was completely focused on them at all times. We feel so much respect and affection for Angela. We will miss her very much.”

Hi Families! I'm Ella, I'm 22 years old, and a recent graduate from the University of Connecticut. I moved to NYC from Charlotte, NC this past August to pursue my career in publishing at Penguin Random House. I used to be a swim coach working with lots of children ranging from ages 3-17 for a summer swim team! I also have plenty of experience providing private and group swim lessons. I have babysat for multiple families and am comfortable running errands, pet sitting/ dog walking, prepping meals, pickups and drop offs and helping with homework for afterschool! I used to be an English major and now work all the time with books and would love to share my love for reading with your kids! I also am very comfortable with dogs and cats! I have two cats and grea up with dogs. I am very responsible and a hard worker. New York is very difficult to afford, I want to babysit or petsit for an additional income. Because I work a 9-5, my hours are limited, but if you have any consistent or inconsistent babysitting needs that aligns with this, please let me know!
