Sierra $21 per hour for 1 child

I have over 8 years of childcare experience across a variety of settings, including nannying, coaching, and working in children’s programming. Most recently, I worked as a Kids Club Attendant at the Four Seasons Orlando, where I design and lead engaging activities and games in a high-energy, luxury environment. I also spent three years working in retail at Walt Disney World, where I focused on creating memorable, engaging experiences for families and children. This strengthened my ability to connect quickly with kids and bring energy and positivity into every interaction. In addition, I have extensive coaching experience with both the Savannah Sharks and Upper Merion Allstars, where I led practices and taught tumbling classes. I also coached a cheer team for children with differing abilities, which was one of the most meaningful parts of my experience. It taught me how to adapt to individual needs, build confidence, and create an inclusive, supportive environment for every child.

High school teacher who previously worked as a life guard and swim teacher to children ages 3-15. I really enjoy connecting with children of all ages, whether it's hearing about the book they love, the new slang they're using or playing a board game with inventive rules.

Hi! I’m Lindsey – a full-time product manager living in Brooklyn and working in Manhattan. I'm currently looking for part-time nannying opportunities—ideally on weekends, though I’m also open to some evening jobs during the week after work. I have extensive experience caring for children of various ages and truly enjoy spending time with kids. I’m comfortable helping with homework, preparing meals, and managing bedtime routines. Whether you're looking for a dependable weekend sitter or occasional weekday support, I’d love to connect and see if I’m a good fit for your family.

Alexis $27 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Alexis! I’ve been babysitting for years and have worked with kids of all ages, from newborns to teens. I also spent several summers as a camp counselor for ages 2–6, planning activities, keeping everyone safe, and making sure every day was full of fun and laughter. I’m currently a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) and CPR/BLS certified, so you can trust that your little ones are in safe hands. I’m also in nursing school, where I’m specializing in women’s health and pediatrics. My goal is to build a career focused on caring for others, and childcare has always been something that feels natural and meaningful to me. I love connecting with kids, whether that means playing outside, doing crafts, helping with homework, or creating cozy routines. I’m patient, responsible, and love bringing a positive, calm energy to every home I work in. A little more about me: I grew up skiing, love being outdoors, hiking, and exploring new places. I truly love being working with families and kids, and I’d be so excited to be a trusted part of yours!
