Hi, I’m Lucia! Brooklyn has been my home for over a decade, though I’m originally from California. As the eldest of three and the first grandchild among 30 cousins, I’ve been caring for children of all ages for as long as I can remember. Over the years, I’ve had the joy of looking after wonderful kids, ages 1.5–16, and many families have told me I became their child’s favorite sitter—the highest compliment I could hope for! I love getting to know each child’s unique personality and tailoring activities to what excites them most—whether that’s baking cookies, arts & crafts, reading stories, or spending time outdoors. My focus is always to keep little ones safe, happy, and engaged. Families describe me as punctual, kind, patient, fun, and fully present. Please feel free to check my references—they’re filled with kind words from families I’ve had the privilege to work with. I would be honored to care for your child and create a nurturing, playful space where they can thrive. I look forward to connecting! Warmly, Lucia

“Lucia was awesome! Super sweet and punctual. We will hire her again!”

Hello! My name is Shelley - I’m an experienced sitter/nanny and communications professional with a master’s in creative writing from Oxford. In my free time, I am a singer, performer, and avid fan of classic film. I've been involved in childcare from a very young age, including as a daytime nanny when I was working as an actress full-time, and an evening and weekends babysitter throughout college and beyond. I have experience with all ages, from infants to teens, and I have frequently worked with multiple children. I look forward to meeting you and your family!

Hello! Thanks for visiting my profile. I am new to the NYC area and at this time am only available for occasional weekends or weekday evenings. I have caregiving experience with ages 1-7 as well as many years of teaching & sports coaching experience with elementary and middle school aged students. When guiding children, I am genuine, kind, and patient. I study Montessori methods and my style is gentle yet firm. I enjoy being around kids of all ages as well as dogs and cats, and am comfortable caring for pets. I also enjoy tidying and organizing.

Booked by 2 families in Maspeth, NY

Hi! I’m a happy, loving, fun, and outgoing mom to a curious and energetic 3-year-old boy. I’m also an Early Childhood Education and Special Education major, as well as a paraprofessional with the NYC Department of Education, with hands-on experience working with children in both classroom and childcare settings. Throughout my college program, I complete approximately 120 hours of supervised fieldwork each semester, working with children of different ages in early childhood centers and classrooms. These experiences have helped me learn how to support children’s development while creating an environment where they feel safe, comfortable, engaged, and cared for. Caring for children has been a part of my life long before college. I grew up in a large family and began helping care for my younger brother when I was 10 years old. As a teenager, I also worked through Summer Youth Employment at his daycare. Throughout adulthood, I’ve continued caring for children in a variety of roles, schedules, and family situations. As both a mom and future early childhood special education teacher, I understand how important it is to find someone you can genuinely trust with your child. I enjoy playing, talking, reading, exploring, and keeping children engaged while also respecting each family’s routines, expectations, and parenting preferences. I’m currently looking to connect with families who need occasional childcare, including date nights, appointments, events, school/work obligations, or an extra helping hand when needed. I’m always happy to discuss your family’s needs and see how I can help! A quick note: I have allergies to cats, dogs, dust, and certain foods, so I appreciate discussing pets and household considerations beforehand. I look forward to getting to know you and your little one(s)! :)
