Natalie $30 per hour for 1 child
Hi - My name is Natalie and I currently live with my husband and two cats in Brooklyn, NY. I am offering child care, senior care, and household services. I have 12+ years experience as a nanny for children ages newborn-12 years in NYC. My responsibilities have included driving to/from school, crafts, tutoring, and even soccer practice. I have also worked as a household assistant and can cook, clean, and run errands. I have been a caretaker for my own in-laws and am comfortable with senior care. I can cook, drive to appointments, or do other tasks. I love animals and am also comfortable working with pets as I have two rescues of my own.
Jennifer $20 per hour for 1 child
Hey there! I’m Jennifer — part-time nursing student, full-time fun-bringer, and your go-to babysitter with 5+ years of experience wrangling giggles, snacks, and sibling squabbles like a pro. I’ve worked with kids of all ages, but I especially love hanging out with those 6 and up! Babysitting isn’t just a job to me—it’s something I genuinely love. Helping kids learn, grow, and have fun is what got me started and what keeps me going. I’m calm, patient, creative, and known for being the “cool babysitter” (okay, maybe I said that—but still!). I’m happy looking after up to three kiddos at once, and I love activities that keep us all moving and thinking—like outdoor games, puzzles, board games, and crafts. I always stick to the rules you set, and I’ll keep you in the loop with updates however you prefer. Bottom line: I want to be someone you can trust and your kids are excited to see walk through the door. Let’s make babysitting awesome together!
