Hi! My name is Savannah! I recently moved to NYC from North Carolina, where I grew up, after graduating from business school at UNC. I’ve always loved working with kids and have several years of experience doing so. Before and during business school, I worked as a professional tennis coach at a club in Chapel Hill, where I worked with kids of all ages and loved getting to know them and their families. I also babysat regularly for a family for a little over a year. I now work in marketing for a corporate company and work from home, which gives me some flexibility with my schedule. I’m responsible, energetic, and easygoing, and I’d love to help out with babysitting, whether it’s an occasional date night, after-school help, or something more regular.
Hi! I'm a nurse who's currently looking for intermittent baby-sitting for date nights, errands, emergencies, etc. I've been a NICU nurse for 4 years and prior to that was a full time nanny for 5 years. I also babysat throughout most of middle school, high school, and parts of college. Most of my recent experience is from newborn to three years of age, but I do have experience with older children as well. I love infants and toddlers because they have such wonder and awe for the world around them and it's a special experience to watch and engage with their development and growth. I'm gentle, engaging, empathetic, and sympathetic in my care and avoid screen time when with the children. I love taking children to parks, museums, play dates, etc., but also just as happy to play games and read stories at home. I won't be able to have regularly scheduled gigs as my work schedule changes week by week, but would love to find a family or families to develop a longer term baby-sitting relationship with, as I feel continuity is better for both the children and the carers. I am also BLS and NRP certified. Thanks!
I am a second-year student at the Fashion Institute of Technology, offering dedicated childcare, pet sitting, and household management services. My background comes from years of hands-on experience caring for local families, looking after young children, and managing pet-friendly homes with cats and dogs. I hold a formal babysitting certification and excel at establishing trust, safety, and joy with kids. As a caregiver, I combine a patient, energetic personality with strong organizational skills. I act as an encouraging role model, an attentive companion to pets, and a reliable manager for busy households. My services cover structured daily routines for kids, alongside dedicated feeding, walking, and care for domestic animals. Additionally, I excel at household assistance, keeping living spaces spotlessly clean, organized, and clutter-free. My blend of warmth, responsibility, and detail-oriented efficiency makes me a well-rounded, dependable helper for any family.
I started babysitting at 14 and have worked in childcare since then. I worked at a summer camp for five years, and have also have been a full time swim instructor for children ages 2-12. I have done private lessons and continued babysitting throughout. I love working with kids and enjoy watching them learn with a smile on their face!
Hello! My name is Clara, and I am a caring, dependable, and patient caregiver with a passion for helping others. I am a proud mother of four wonderful children, who are now between the ages of 19 and 42, and a loving grandmother. My experience raising a large family has taught me compassion, responsibility, organization, and the importance of creating a safe and nurturing environment. In addition to my personal caregiving experience, I have worked as a teacher’s aide supporting children with special needs, where I developed strong communication, problem-solving, and caregiving skills. I am bilingual in English and Spanish, which allows me to connect with more families. I enjoy helping with daily routines, meal preparation, light housekeeping, companionship, and providing attentive, respectful care. Families describe me as trustworthy, calm, reliable, and compassionate. My goal is to make your loved one feel comfortable, valued, and cared for while giving your family peace of mind.
