I started working as a mother's helper at the age of 10, and have been babysitting ever since! In high school I worked as a nanny 20 hours a week for a wonderful family with two infants, and also volunteered at Mount Washington Pediatric Hospital to ensure children separated from their parents for long periods of time were receiving the critical attention needed to develop their gross and fine motor skills. During college I worked as an occasional sitter for many different families in the D.C. area. I have been living in New York for about 5 years now and work full-time as a Copywriter at a creative agency, so I just take a few babysitting jobs each month on nights and weekend :) For five summers when I was 18-23, I worked as a counselor at Camp Onaway, a sleep-away camp for girls ages 8-15 in New Hampshire. After graduating from the University of Maryland in December 2016, I worked at a Swiss boarding school as a dorm counselor, Spanish Instructor, and as a ski instructor. In short, I LOVE hanging out with kids both younger and older! I have ample experience with newborns, infants, and toddlers, and I love kids of all ages and needs. I have babysat for children with special needs and behavioral differences, and I am always happy to accommodate any communication/behavioral/educational methods that your family prefers (though I do not have any specific certifications or training for different needs). I speak Russian and Spanish and I am happy to help children learning either language by simply speaking to them or working on certain vocabulary. I am happy to tidy the house or help out in the kitchen when babysitting, help with homework, run errands, etc. Thanks for your consideration!

Hello my name is Sherley I’m 24 years old, a recent graduate from St. Francis College. I'd describe my personality as attentive, compassionate and caring. I started working with kids when I was 14, I started at a day care center and gradually started as a paraprofessional. Currently I work as a Care manager. Working with children allows you to see growth and progress in amazing, measurable ways. While there may be setbacks, you will see the joy on each child's face as they learn new things from you. Working with kids is fun, no single day is the same. Children make you a more knowledgeable person: Children are, by nature, very curious. Working with children reminds you of how amazing and exciting the world can be. My skills include being Patient, understanding and compassionate. I am comfortable with pets. No allergies!

“Sherley arrived on time and was very warm and friendly. She engaged my son in one of his preferred activities and was responsive when we texted to check in. We felt comfortable with her and would be glad to hire her again.”

Booked by 1 family in Kew Gardens, NY

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.”
