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.
My name is Emily! I work at an art gallery in Chelsea and am looking to take a part time babysitting gig in the mornings or late afternoons. I've been babysitting since I was 14 and worked as a youth dance teacher for 6 years. I'm comfortable with kids of all ages including infants and have worked with families with as many as 5 kids under 12! My responsibilities have included school drop off/pick up, making meals, helping with homework, and coming up with activities to keep everyone entertained and happy. I love animals of all kind and am happy to assist with any housework.
Hi! I’m Breana, I’ve always loved being around kids and helping families. I’m patient, caring, and easygoing, and I try to make every day fun but still structured. Whether it’s playing games, helping with homework, or keeping a good routine, I like to make sure kids feel comfortable, safe, and happy while their parents are away. People usually describe me as reliable, calm under pressure, and great with communication. I take pride in showing up on time and giving my full attention to the kids I’m caring for. I know how much trust it takes to leave your child with someone, and I don’t take that lightly. I’d love to be someone your family can count on, whether it’s for regular help or last-minute care. I’m looking forward to meeting you and your little ones!
Hi! My name is Sofia, and I recently graduated from Syracuse University with a Bachelor of Science in Nutrition Science and Biology. I am currently pursuing my Master’s degree in Human Nutrition at Columbia University Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons, with plans to attend medical school in the next two years. I have a strong passion for women’s health and preventative medicine, and I truly enjoy caring for and supporting others. Beyond academics, I’ve grown up in a large family surrounded by children, which made babysitting second nature to me. I have years of babysitting experience throughout high school and college, and nothing brings me more joy than spending time with kids and supporting them through their most important developmental years. I am CPR certified, trained in emergency healthcare, and fluent in Spanish as a dual citizen of Spain. In my free time, I love dancing, taking long walks, spending time outdoors, traveling, and exploring new restaurants and coffee shops. I look forward to bringing energy, responsibility, and warmth to the families I work with!
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.
