I am a fourth year college student studying at Stevens Tech and live in Jersey City. I have babysat toddlers for a couple of years now and last summer I worked at a summer camp with kids ranging from 4-7 years old. In the past I have brought kids to the park, done crafts, tutored/help with homework. I am available for babysitting as well as pet care. I used to have two cats and I know the responsibilities for taking care of cats!
Kennedi $20 per hour for 1 child
My name is Kennedi and I’m located in the Harlem area of New York. I have experience working with children in both childcare and customer-facing roles where patience, attentiveness, and communication are really important. I genuinely enjoy working with kids and creating a safe, positive environment where they can play, learn, and feel supported. I’m very dependable, organized, and comfortable helping with routines like school pickups, activities, meals, and keeping children’s spaces tidy. I’m known for being calm, attentive, and engaging with kids, and I’m happy to provide references if needed. I am also CPR/AED/FIRST AID Certified as of 3/16/2026. Proof of certification can be provided upon request!
