Alexandra $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi my name is Alex and I’m currently a college student at the New School. I have been babysitting for the past three years for children around the ages of five to twelve. I also have experience in tutoring children in reading and writing. I’m also an art student so if your child has any interest in art I’d be more than happy to nurture their interest in teaching them and taking them to art museums. I also have experience in caring for cats and reptiles. So if you have either I’d be willing to care for them in anyway they need.

Tate $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! I am 23 years old living in NYC working in advertising, looking for babysitting opportunities. I have extensive babysitting experience with children whose ages range from infants to teenagers. I am CPR certified and majored in Human Development and Family Science at Syracuse University where I focused on child development and worked at an afterschool program for underprivileged children for the entirety of my senior year. During my time at Syracuse I was also a member of the division 1 women’s lacrosse team. I love to bake, read, run, and I love kids!

Kat $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Kat! I’m 28 years old and based in Manhattan. I was born and raised in Manhattan and currently live in the financial district. I have an undergraduate degree in Psychology from George Washington University and am a former Division I athlete. These experiences have shaped the way I care for children, with an emphasis on patience, empathy and consistency. I have been nannying throughout my life, with my most recent position lasting four years. I worked part-time, five days a week, with a family of three children ages 6, 8, and 10, and became a steady, trusted presence in their daily lives. From helping with homework and daily routines to offering emotional support and encouragement, I truly enjoyed being part of their growth. The family has since relocated, and I am now excited to find a new family where I can build a similar long-term connection! In addition to childcare, I’m a music producer and songwriter, which allows me to bring creativity, joy, and calm energy into the home. I’m someone who leads with kindness, listens closely, and values creating a safe, supportive, and loving environment where children feel seen and cared for. I am currently open to either a full-time or part-time nanny position and would love the opportunity to become a dependable and caring support for your family.

I’ve helped care for my three nieces my whole life and have babysat for multiple families, both long- and short-term, since I was 14. I’m patient, loving, and compassionate, and I truly enjoy kids’ company. I’m a strong leader who’s fun while keeping your child safe, happy, and supported.

Lucia $25 per hour for 1 child

My name is Lucia, I'm 20 years old, soon to be 21! I'm from Colombia, my first language is Spanish. I went to the French school in Bogota, Colombia, so I can also speak fluent French. I've been working with kids since I was 16. I worked multiple times at a very prestigious summer camp in Colombia. Children were between 6 and 17 years old. I know multiple activities to entertain children and love having fun with them! I love cooking, I'm super nice, I'm calm and patient. I've taken multiple courses about handling stressful/complicated situations with children. I did gymnastics most of my life so I love doing motricity activities! I'm currently doing my bachelor in Fashion Design, so everything that has to do with art and creativity, that's also my game!
