Hi - My name is Monique and I work in finance and have a legal background. I am offering casual babysitting/ child care during weekday evenings and on weekends in Manhattan. I love being a babysitter (I am the eldest of three girls) and have been watching newborns, infants, toddlers, and kids (including twins!) since I was 11 years old. My responsibilities have included driving to/from school, crafts, tutoring/ helping with homework no say today it’s just been like the vibes like do the bad minimum, yeah, and preparing meals.
My name is Simphiwe, I go by Cataleya. I am 21 years of age. I have professional experience working with children since 2022. However, being the eldest daughter to two younger siblings I would say I have had experience since forever. I am a fluent English speaker. I am very respectful, clean, honest, organized, trustworthy and FUN! I have reserved personality. I am dog friendly and I am moderately good at the kitchen. ! I would appreciate any feedback. Thank you.
NYC born and raised (Lower Manhattan), I've been babysitting kids ages 1–12 for years and genuinely love it. Whether it's completing a puzzle on the living room floor, exploring the city together, or picking them up from practice or class, I'm happiest spending time with kids and keeping them engaged. I'm experienced with the full routine from meals, bedtime, baths, the works, and I take full responsibility to make sure everything is taken care of for the child. I have a very flexible schedule over the next few weeks before heading back to college, so I can work around your family's needs.
I have a lifetime of experience working with children. I’ve been babysitting regularly since I was old enough, have worked as a full-time nanny, and have extensive understanding of childcare and learning through my mother, who runs a preschool in Connecticut. I’ve worked at her school directly and have also held several long-term babysitting and nannying positions, with kids ranging from infants through 12-year-olds. I’m also a freelance designer, so my schedule is flexible! I’m high-energy, ebullient, and genuinely love to play—why shouldn’t it be fun for both of us? I’m especially interested in activities that spark kids’ curiosity while helping them build skills and a deeper understanding of the world. I’m very hands-on and love to craft, make things, and get immersed alongside kids. I went to film school and enjoy doing creative projects such as making short movies together, which can be a great way to combine storytelling, collaboration, and play. I’m also comfortable preparing meals and snacks, and enjoy putting together food that works for kids and their routines. I had wonderful babysitters growing up, and really can’t overstate how much I value the time I spent with them! I also spent part of my childhood in the city, and know how rich and engaging it can be for a developing person with the right kind of guidance. I was raised around Reggio Emilia principles (my mom is Bank Street–educated, and I went to a Reggio school myself), and those ideas have deeply shaped how I think about children, learning, and play. I aim to be someone kids feel excited to spend time with and parents feel completely confident trusting—curious, attentive, and genuinely invested in making each day engaging, supportive, and fun. I’m new to this site, but have some fantastic references should you like to speak to someone! Don’t hesitate to reach out, thanks so much :-)
Hi there! My name is Kyra, and I am a law student living and studying in Brooklyn after a recent move from Washington DC. I have babysat, tutored, coached swim team/taught swim lessons to kids of all ages, done overnights with kids, and lifeguarded for 10+ years. I have First Aid, Lifeguarding, and CPR/Infant CPR certifications. I love to bake, read, play games, spend time outside, in my free time and with your kiddos. I'm a great cook, and happy to take on light household chores if discussed in advance. Please feel free to reach out with questions or for references!
