Shaam $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Shaam, and I bring over five years of hands-on experience as both a babysitter and pet sitter. I’m someone families can depend on calm under pressure, naturally nurturing, and highly organized. I’ve cared for children of all ages, from toddlers to teens, as well as family pets, ensuring their safety, comfort, and happiness while maintaining structure and consistency. I recently earned my degree in Interdisciplinary Studies with a focus in psychology and criminal justice, which has given me a strong understanding of child development, emotional regulation, and conflict resolution skills that I apply every day in caregiving. My background allows me to connect with children in meaningful ways, whether it's supporting their emotional needs, helping with homework, or simply being a positive, consistent presence in their day. Organization is one of my strongest traits. I’m excellent at creating smooth daily routines, planning educational and fun activities, managing multiple responsibilities, and keeping homes tidy and efficient. I’ve also coached and mentored youth in sports, which has strengthened my patience, leadership, and ability to motivate and uplift others. Above all, I truly care. I show up with kindness, respect, and a willingness to support families however they need. Whether I’m helping a child with their bedtime routine, keeping pets active and happy, or maintaining a calm household environment, I always give my best. I’m here to make life easier and more joyful for the families I work with

Bernarda $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, My name is Bernarda and I am 25 years old. I am currently working at a part time legal assistant position while also building my career in the wine industry. I have been working with kids since the age of 15, where I started coaching tennis to a 10 and under group with The New York Junior Tennis League. My experience working with kids is not something I learned at my job. Growing up at home my mom was a babysitter, and I always helped her take care of the children, from toddlers to kids in elementary school. I grew up with these children in my house and I learned to love them, help them with homework, and even take them out on small trips with my mother. Ever since I have helped my mom with babysitting , children have always been part of my life. Eventually,I was able to continue to work with children teaching them and making tennis a fun game for them to learn. I love to read, play tennis, and dance as well. I also speak Spanish and I would gladly be able to teach your son or daughter. I promise to take care of your child like they were my own. Make each day with me fun and exciting !

Paulina $28 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Paulina, a caring, responsible, and energetic caregiver from Ecuador. I have experience caring for children of different ages as nanny in Wetchester, where I help with school routines, meals, activities, homework, transportation, and creating a safe, positive environment. I also have experience caring for pets, including walking dogs and providing daily care. I’m organized, patient, reliable, and enjoy planning creative and educational activities. I love spending time outdoors, doing arts and crafts, reading stories, playing soccer and swimming, and encouraging healthy routines. I always treat every child and pet with love, respect, and patience, making sure they feel safe, happy, and supported. I would love the opportunity to help your family and become someone you can rely on every day.
