Booked by 37 families in Whitestone, NY

Hi! I'm Morgan and I have almost two decades of childcare experience. I've lived in New York for the past 9 years and currently based in Bed-Stuy. Originally from Orlando, Florida, I made my way north by way of UNC-Chapel Hill, where I graduated before ending up in Brooklyn. Over my nearly decade in NYC, I've worked with several families long-term, and I've also spent time as a long-term substitute teacher in Florida. Families tell me they appreciate that I'm reliable, calm, and genuinely enthusiastic about being there. Right now I'm taking a break from my career in the design agency world, which has given me the chance to do what I love most-- working with kids. I'm currently nannying for a 13-month-old and two 4-year-olds. I'm available for occasional nights and weekend hours.

Booked by 8 families in Whitestone, NY

Hi! My name is Lily, I work and live full time in New York, and I went to Virginia Tech for school. I love being a babysitter and I’m trying to find opportunities to continue baby-sitting here. I have been baby-sitting since I was about 14 years old. I’ve sat kids 9-11, and my younger cousins who are 3, 7, 10, and 13. I am a kind, thoughtful and creative person who likes to craft, knit, read and play board games in my free time. I love kids and I am a patient, responsible, and caring individual. I can also work as a household assistant who cleans, runs errands, house sits or pet sits. I grew up with 3 cats and a dog and I just adore pets. I miss my chocolate lab back at my parent’s house. :)

Hi there! I’m Madeleine, and I’m attending NYU at the moment. I am a Psychology major, and find working with kids fascinating as you can really see skills and proficiencies develop. I have worked as a babysitter for children from 5-12, and as a summer camp counselor for children from 4-13. I have also worked in temporary childcare for children from 6 months to 12 years. I am a former STEM school student, where I volunteered as a tutor for Math, Science, and SAT prep. I am able to assist with homework or skill building in these areas.

Booked by 2 families in Whitestone, NY

Hi! I’m a college student in my junior year The New School in NYC studying Culture and Media Studies with a minor in Fashion Communications at Parsons. I’m responsible, friendly, patient, and dependable, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids. I’m comfortable helping with things like playtime, homework, meals and snacks, bedtime routines, and keeping kids entertained and engaged. I’m also happy to help with light household tasks, errands, pet care, and general tidying when needed. I’m organized, attentive, and easygoing, while still being responsible and able to follow a family’s routines and instructions. I have a busy school and internship schedule during the week, so I’m especially interested in part-time, occasional, date-night, Friday, and weekend opportunities that I can build a consistent relationship with a family through. I’d love to connect with families looking for someone reliable, caring, and flexible to help make their lives a little easier!

“Artemis helped us with a last minute babysitter scramble and was so lovely to have. She was early and eager to know all the details of the girls routine. Our daughters, 10 and 7.5, had a great time with Artemis and are already asking when she will be back. Highly recommend! ”

Booked by 5 families in Whitestone, NY

Hi! I’m Tanha, and have been babysitting for most of my life. I grew up as one of the oldest, with tons of littles around at any given time, I still have little cousins under 5 years old to watch. I also have little nephews that I absolutely adore. Holding a college degree, I'm experienced in caring for children aged 0-11, and comfortable with up to three children at a time. I'm patient, creative, and always approachable. I enjoy engaging children with board games, puzzles, and educational activities, and reading together. I prioritize open communication with you, using your preferred method to discuss your child's day. I'm also comfortable following your household rules. Ultimately, my goal is to provide a safe and enriching environment where your children can thrive, and I look forward to the possibility of becoming a part of your family's support system. I love cats and dogs and am comfortable being around them, I have 2 of my own sweet kitties. I am also very clean and tend to tidy up when I have downtime

“Tanha was a great fit for us! She and my daughter hit it off instantly. She was pleasant and attentive to my daughter and helped her with her bedtime routine. They bonded over their love of animals. Would def book her for childcare help again. ”
