Find a last-minute babysitter in Forest Hills, NY

I am a lifelong babysitter, starting as a mother’s helper at 8 years old for a neighbor and their infant. I babysat throughout high school for an infant until I moved to NYC when she was 8 years old. In college, I worked at a daycare with children aged 12 weeks to 5 years old. When I first moved to NYC I was a nanny for 3 different families with children ranging in age from 8 months to 2 years old. I am currently a 5th grade math teacher and have been a teacher to elementary and middle school aged children for 14 years. I love playing games, reading and going for walks or to the playground. I love to joke around while still have boundaries with kids to keep them safe and learn how to navigate the world around them.

Hi! My name is Margot and I'm currently a School Counseling Ed.M. student at Teachers College, Columbia University. I am offering child care, pet care, and household services. I love working with children and have experience as a babysitter, elementary school literacy tutor, camp counselor for special needs children, and recreation assistant at a children's hospital. In all of these roles, I have used my creativity, empathy, and patience to engage children in play and learning, while maintaining a safe environment. I have babysat for both neurotypical and neurodivergent kids, providing flexible care depending on their needs and developmental levels. I am also happy to assist with homework, projects, and other assignments. I love crafts, music, science experiments, and anything that involves being imaginative and having fun. I also can help with household chores and errands, and I am happy to work with families with pets, as I am a big animal lover!

I have been babysitting since I was 14years old and love kids! I volunteered in the nursery (ages 1 through 4) at my church all four years of high school. In addition, while in college I nannied for two years. I have continued to babysit post graduation as much as I can! I was an early learners tutor at Kumon and taught swimming to kids ages 2 and up. So in addition to Babysitting, I’m well equipped to help with homework and provide swimming lessons!

Hi, my name is Adriana and I am an elementary school teacher on the Upper East Side. I just finished my 6th year of teaching and I have experience teaching 3rd-5th grade. My experience with working with children ages 4-14 dates back to when I was in high school when I taught dance classes at my dance studio. I also worked as a camp counselor at a 7 week sleep away camp in Maine for three summers during college. I love babysitting and tutoring kids between the ages of 4 and 14.

Hi there, my name is Caitlin! I'm 24 and have been living in the city for the past two years, but am originally from Wisconsin. I went to university for Entertainment and Marketing, and now I work in Film and Television PR during the day, however I am looking to pick up more babysitting gigs as I just love being around kids! Growing up with three younger siblings and 14 younger cousins, I've always been surrounded by kids, so now that I live away from family, I'm missing that burst of joy. I've been a certified babysitting for 12 years (CPR certified, and Red Cross babysitting certified), and worked as a summer nanny for three summers during college. As far as age experience, I'm very comfortable with kiddos of all ages, from infants to teenagers, I love it all! Hanging out and playing with the kids I watch is always a joy, however their safety is always my number one priority! I'm so excited to meet you and am grateful you took the time to read my bio :)
