Rac-Khyla $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Rac-Khyla, I’m a 22 year old pharmacy technician. On my off days I’d babysit my younger cousins that used to live with, a 1 year old and a 3 year old. I’m a reliable and caring babysitter who loves working with kids. I’m patient, attentive, and always focused on creating a safe, fun, and positive environment. I enjoy helping with homework, playtime, even bedtime routines, and I treat every child as if they were my own siblings or cousins. Parents can count on me to be responsible, respectful, and trustworthy.

Paloma $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m an 18-year-old college freshman at Sarah Lawrence College studying Art History and Psychology. I’ve been babysitting for families throughout high school, and even before that, I regularly helped out neighbors and family friends. I grew up in a close-knit community in California, so I’ve always been surrounded by little ones and genuinely love being around kids. I’m excited to bring that same energy and experience to new families here in New York!

Damali $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Damali, and caring for children has been one of the most rewarding parts of my life. I have experience working with children of all ages in a variety of settings, including as a private nanny, an early childhood educator, a dance instructor, and a summer camp leader. For a year, I had the privilege of supporting a single mother by providing dependable, compassionate childcare and creating a safe, loving environment where her child could thrive. I've also worked in early childhood education at Brightside Academy, where I partnered with teachers to support children's learning, social development, and emotional well-being while maintaining strong communication with parents. One of my greatest passions is using creativity to help children grow. As a Dance Instructor and Event Coordinator with the YMCA, I taught dance to children of all age groups and coordinated large performances that brought together multiple grade levels. Those experiences taught me how to build confidence, encourage teamwork, celebrate each child's unique personality, and create an environment where every child felt included and valued. Families often describe me as patient, dependable, nurturing, and positive. I genuinely enjoy helping children learn, explore, and build confidence while ensuring they feel safe, respected, and cared for. Whether we're reading books, dancing, completing homework, exploring creative activities, or simply sharing laughs throughout the day, my goal is to create meaningful experiences that support both the child and the entire family. I would be honored to care for your little ones and become someone your family can trust and depend on.
