I’m a senior at NYU with a strong background in childcare and safety. I’m a certified lifeguard trained in CPR, First Aid, and emergency response, and I bring that same attentiveness and calm presence to caregiving. I’m responsible, patient, and engaging, with experience caring for children and pets. Families appreciate my reliability, clear communication, and punctuality.
I am an NYC-based teacher, currently teaching 7th grade ELA. Next year, I will be teaching 4th Grade (all subjects). I am NYSED certified in ELA, Theatre, and Elementary Education. In addition to my experience in education, I have worked as a part-time/freelance nanny and child care provider in NYC for over ten years. I have an MA in Educational Theatre from NYU and am certified in CPR, First Aid, and Mental Health First Aid. I have also been fingerprinted/background checked by the NYC Department of Education. I am an animal lover with two cats (my former fosters). I grew up around dogs, cats, goats, and llamas and love all animals. In addition to caring for my own bbz, I have many years experience pet-sitting dogs and cats. I am on summer break and open to occasional work. Looking forward to speaking with you!
Hi, my name is Marae and I love working with kids!! I've been babysitting for about 5 years now and out of all my jobs, it's always been my favorite:) Being the daughter of an elementary school teacher I was raised with a deep appreciation for peace + love, and I love keeping that cycle going! I'm open to all aspects of care-taking for children (including any special needs for neurodivergent children), except driving and changing diapers. I am also open to house-care such as grocery shopping, laundry, tidying up, etc. I am currently in college, so I don't have my degree yet but I'm working on it!
Hi! I am a masters student and work as a community health fellow at HSS. I am looking for child care, tutoring and household services jobs. I have 4 years of experience working and tutoring students in a school district. I also have a lot of experience working with children on the autism spectrum from my time as a teacher. I’ve been around kids of all ages and I love doing arts and craft and enjoy physical activity. I have also housesat and am comfortable around most animals. I am fully vaccinated and would be willing to wear a mask :)
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.
