Hi there! I’m Madeleine, and I’m attending NYU at the moment. I am a Psychology major, and find working with kids fascinating as you can really see skills and proficiencies develop.

Hello- My name is Absa and I am currently a graduate student at New York University. I am offering child care, senior care, and household services. I first began babysitting professionally at the age of 14 for a few families in my neighborhood but since that have developed a lot of experience working in the California Bay Area, Washington, D.C., and NYC areas. I have cared for infants, toddlers, and kids; my responsibilities including crafts, tutoring, even teaching beginner/intermediate level gymnastics. I am comfortable with household services and cooking as well if necessary. I have worked with families with pets in the past, and am happy to again.

“Absa was such a great baby sitter! She was friendly, punctual, communicative, and played really well with my 2 year old. Will hire again :)”
