Karolynne 2 reviews
$28 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Corona, NY

Hi! My name is Karolynne born and raised in Jersey City with a Honduran background. I am fluent in both english and spanish. Offering services for Childcare, Senior care and household services. With children I enjoy many activities and keeping them busy and entertained but also assist them in learning while having fun and being safe. I love to get creative with activities during the childcare. I enjoy doing arts and crafts, assisting with homework and going to the park. I tutored during my high school and college years. I love cooking and baking and a hobby is trying new recipes. For Senior Care I can provide driving and cooking assistance. I enjoy senior care because I love long conversations and keeping seniors company. For Household Services, I can cook, assist with cleaning and laundry. I have a very bubbly personality and enjoy being around children and people!

“Karolynne was a God send on late notice (less than 24 hours!) to provide childcare assistance to my husband with our 4 year old and 1.5 year old as we were in town (and I was out for 2 days) at a conference. The kids warmed up to her almost immediately including our 1.5 year old who is typically shy, and she was a dream to work with - going the extra mile to tidy up when my husband was prepping food or when she had a free moment. With her help we were able to get the kids out to a nearby playground and spend the days with enriching activities. We could not ask for someone better and wished we could bring her back home with us to be our permanent nanny. We are so grateful to have found her and will be keeping in touch for future visits!”

Carley 5 reviews
$30 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! My name is Carley, and I am a recent master's graduate in art therapy. My education has given me a strong understanding of children’s unique needs, including how temperament and developmental stages (including creative development!) can shape the way a child experiences the world. I would love to bring along age-appropriate art materials to nurture your child’s self-expression and budding curiosities! My favorite part of caregiving is engaging with children’s imagination, along with the limitless questions and humor that often arise. I also enjoy approaching childcare with creative problem-solving. On multiple occasions, I have successfully distracted a child from a screen by drawing their favorite character and inviting them to color it. I have experience caring for children from infancy through the pre-teen years. I have lived in NYC for a decade and am also comfortable commuting with children on public transportation. My approach is collaborative — I want to work within your parenting style while taking the time to understand your child’s individual personality and inner world. I bring a warm presence, a playful spirit, and a genuine enjoyment of following children’s interests and seeing where their curiosity takes them.

“I’ve known Carley for more than 10 years, since we met while studying abroad, and I’m so happy to recommend her as a caregiver. Over the years, I’ve always known her to be thoughtful, responsible, warm, and incredibly creative. While I haven’t personally seen Carley in a caregiving role, I know she has extensive experience working with children of all ages and has put a great deal of thought and care into building her skills in this area, including through her master’s degree in art therapy. One thing I know for sure is that a child in Carley’s care would never be bored—she is incredibly creative and would be the kind of sitter to come up with fun activities, make art together, and really engage with a child’s imagination and interests. Carley is someone I’ve trusted and valued as a friend for more than a decade, and I would feel completely comfortable recommending her to families looking for a kind, responsible, and genuinely fun caregiver.”

Booked by 1 family in Corona, NY

Hello!! I live in Midtown East!! I’m a mom. I’m very active! I’ve raised an incredible young woman who is living in England. I have spent years taking care of babies, toddlers, kids, tweens, teens. Being a mom is a hard job but I love it! I love spending time with kids/babies and playing and teaching them. I can email you references from jobs that I had before and after this app if you’d like. Looking forward to meeting your family.

“Gaby has been a great addition to our family. Within minutes of meeting our 6 month old, she was sitting on the floor, playing with him. She talks to him throughout the day and keeps him happy and entertained. She's incredibly aware of his needs for sleep, food, and fun. She's also respectful of my wishes for caring for him. Gaby is also a tremendous help around the house, helping with keeping our counters, tabletops, and floors clean! She's easy to communicate with and flexible with start times. She's always on time and very dependable. So happy we have her!”
