Paulina $28 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Paulina, a caring, responsible, and energetic caregiver from Ecuador. I have experience caring for children of different ages as nanny in Wetchester, where I help with school routines, meals, activities, homework, transportation, and creating a safe, positive environment. I also have experience caring for pets, including walking dogs and providing daily care. I’m organized, patient, reliable, and enjoy planning creative and educational activities. I love spending time outdoors, doing arts and crafts, reading stories, playing soccer and swimming, and encouraging healthy routines. I always treat every child and pet with love, respect, and patience, making sure they feel safe, happy, and supported. I would love the opportunity to help your family and become someone you can rely on every day.

Paloma $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m an 18-year-old college freshman at Sarah Lawrence College studying Art History and Psychology. I’ve been babysitting for families throughout high school, and even before that, I regularly helped out neighbors and family friends. I grew up in a close-knit community in California, so I’ve always been surrounded by little ones and genuinely love being around kids. I’m excited to bring that same energy and experience to new families here in New York!

Sanaa $20 per hour for 1 child

As an experienced and dedicated babysitter, I am confident in my ability to provide exceptional care and support to the children under my supervision. I have always had a passion for working with children and have spent the past 6 years honing my skills and knowledge in childcare. During this time, I have had the opportunity to work with children of various ages, ranging from infants to pre-teens. This diverse experience has equipped me with a deep understanding of the unique needs and developmental stages of children. My approach to babysitting centers around creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for children. I prioritize their well-being and strive to foster their physical, intellectual, and emotional growth. I am adept at preparing nutritious meals and snacks, organizing educational activities, assisting with homework, and coordinating recreational outings. In addition to my practical skills, I am certified in pediatric first aid and CPR, ensuring that I can respond effectively in emergency situations. I possess excellent communication skills, allowing me to establish strong relationships with both children and parents. I believe in maintaining open lines of communication and working collaboratively with parents to ensure their child's needs are met. I am confident that my compassionate nature, patience, and ability to remain calm under pressure make me a reliable and trustworthy caregiver. I take my responsibilities seriously and genuinely enjoy engaging with children, helping them learn and grow while keeping their safety and happiness at the forefront.
