Hi! I’m Georgia, a graduate student at Columbia university. I’m offering child and pet care services. I have been professionally babysitting for ten years, but as the second oldest of six children, I have been caring for kids my entire life. My experience ranges from picking up children from school, supervising outdoor activities and outings, preparing meals, putting to bed, and occasionally overnight stays (the longest being one week). I also have many years of experience as a summer camp counselor and a children’s surf camp head counselor. Im comfortable taking care of kids of any age, however I have the most experience from ages 2 and up. I’m patient, energetic, and love keeping kids active and engaged, while also being comfortable setting clear boundaries and expectations when needed. I love any and all animals (except spiders) and would be more than willing to work with families with pets.
“Georgia is fabulous. She cared for our daughters (now 5 and 7) on multiple occasions and we trust her completely. She is professional, reliable and loved to play and create with our girls! We wish she still lived near us (we are in California) and we miss her!”
Hi! My name is Ana, and I am currently a student of International Affairs and I have several years of experience working with children! My childcare journey started when I helped care for my nephews for over two years, including one with autism. I later worked as a teacher’s assistant and became an elementary school teacher in Brazil, supporting children’s learning basic English, development, and daily routines. I have experience with children of different ages and backgrounds, including children with special needs. I also gained valuable childcare experience as an Au Pair in the United States, where my responsibilities included school drop offs/pickups, preparing meals, helping with homework, organizing activities, and creating a safe and positive environment for children. I am patient, reliable, energetic, and passionate about helping children learn, grow, and have fun. My goal is always to make children feel safe, supported, and happy while giving parents peace of mind.
Hi my name is Charity but I go by Ms Harmony. I have over 20 years of experience working with young children. I was an infant and toddler preschool teacher for 15 years and a professional Super Nanny for 10years. I majored in Early Childhood Education and Child Development and became a Certified Newborn Care Specialist, Postpartum Doula, Peer Breastfeeding Support Counselor and a Professionally Certified Parenting Coach. Caring for young children and supporting parents is my passion and it brings so much joy into my life. I have a very special gift for comforting and connecting with newborns, infants and toddlers. I am very patient and can handle a crying, frustrated or difficult baby with the ability to respond to their needs in an affectionate and nurturing way. Keeping children safe is so important to me that I became a certified instructor through the American Red Cross to use and teach Adult, Child and Infant CPR/AED and First Aid to new parents and caregivers. Please feel free to contact me if you think we would be a good match. I look forward to hearing from you soon. Warm Regards, Ms Harmony
“Charity was very professional and kind. ”
I’m a 20 year old college student looking mainly for weekend work/ part time to help pay for school. I don’t have much paid experience but I have lots of personal experience. When I was younger my mom was a nanny and I was always her little assistant helping out with the kids she looked after ranging from ages 1-8. I also have a niece that I look after every now and then who just turned 4. Lastly throughout the week I work as a pediatric dental assistant so caring for kids comes naturally! If you have pets I have experience on caring for reptiles, cats and dogs. Cpr/ first aid/BLS certified: ✅ Meals and light housekeeping: ✅ Own transportation:✅
