**Please Note: For all jobs that begin before 7am or end 10pm and later, I do require compensation for cab fare. This ensures my safety during travel time when public transportation may not be the safest or most reliable option. Thank you for understanding.** **Early Arrival: I do request to be paid for the full amount of time booked even if parents should arrive home early** 2 HOUR/$50 BOOKING MINIMUM for one time bookings I am more than happy to discuss my policies with you. Hi! My name is Nisa. I am currently working as a part time nanny, but I have been a babysitter for over 15 years and I have loved every minute of it. I am a recreational ballet dancer, gymnast, and painter. I am also extremely creative and I love coming up with new and fun adventures for kids to enjoy. I hate for children to be bored, so I like to do arts and crafts projects, read to them, play card and board games, bake with them, and go to the park. I even have a recipe for homemade play dough! I have also been an after school teacher for children, grades K-5 and I am currently studying to become a Newborn Care Specialist. I have worked with infants, toddlers, and pre-teens and I love connecting with each child on their level. I am naturally drawn to children which is why I love to spend time with them and be a part of their lives. I formerly worked as a cook and baker so I don't mind cooking and baking for/with the kids as well. I am currently CPR/First Aid certified and I have excellent references. Hopefully, I will be a great fit for your family. I look forward to meeting you! ** Please message me for my rates for any HOUSEHOLD SERVICES. Feel free to reach out to me for kitchen and bathroom cleaning, laundry, as well as pantry, closet, and general home organization. Thank you!**

Nisa was great. She was kind, caring, and professional. I would recommend her to anyone. She stepped right up to care for our daughter, who has a lot of profound needs. Not every caregiver is able to easily figure out how to relate to her, but Nisa had no problem with that.

I’ve idone baby sitting as well. In June of 2025 i obtained my associate degree in Early childhood education. I love working with kids because of how rewarding it is- they teach me as much as I teach them! I also a mother to two beautiful baby girls and I understand how exciting it is to watch children learn and grow from both the parent and sitter perspectives! For any reason a booking gets cancelled or you come home early I still charge for the entire time. I also require cab fare back home once a booking ends after 11:00pm.

Booked by 6 families in South Richmond Hill, NY

Hi, my name is Bahia (pronounced ba-ya) and I’m a film major at Pratt Institute! I’m originally from Oakland, California and moved to New York to pursue my education! I am offering child care. I am CPR certified. I have EMSA Health and Safety certification (requirement for working at a school/daycare in CA). I also have gone through the process of having a daycare license in CA, it is not currently active as I now live in NYC! Every summer I work at a french immersion daycare in Oakland called Les BouTchou. I worked there full time from January-August 2024. I worked with babies ranging from 3months to 2 years old both within the daycare and as a babysitter! Additionally I worked as a substitute preschool teacher for kids 2-4yrs also at Les BouTchou. We learned songs, did many creative projects, and had so much fun while doing it! I’ve also worked as a counselor at a sleepaway camp in Tahoe, CA/NV. The age range was 8-15yrs. We led activities, hikes, and daily traditions for the entire summer, while keeping kids safe and guiding them through their emotional needs while being away from home. I was a lifeguard and swim instructor from 2[removed]. I taught ‘Baby and Me’ swim classes, as well as individual lessons for kids 6months-14yrs. I am fully fluent in French, and am always open to tutoring/homework help on all school subjects! I absolutely adore kids, of all ages and have really valued my time with them!
