Find a last-minute babysitter in Maspeth, NY

Hi! I’m Ashitaka, a CPR-certified preschool teacher and children’s gymnastics instructor with over 2 years of experience supporting little ones as they grow, learn, and play. I specialize in working with toddlers and early childhood age groups, and I bring a warm, high-energy, and creative approach to caregiving. As a Broadway actor and performer, I love incorporating music, movement, and storytelling into everyday moments — from dance breaks to dramatic storytime. I’m comfortable with meal times, routines, transitions, and sensory play, and I thrive in environments where kids feel both safe and celebrated. Helping children feel confident, curious, and cared for is at the heart of what I do. I’d love to be part of a home where joy and structure go hand in hand!

Hi! My name is Laura and I am so excited to get to know you and your children. I have 20 years of babysitting experience, starting when I was in middle school. I also work a 9-5 job in marketing, where I’ve built a 10-year career, but miss spending time with kids! I offer early morning and evening/night care on the weekdays, as well as anytime on weekends, for kids age 1 and up. I have extensive babysitting experience with kids ranging from six months to teenagers. I also have an almost two-year-old niece, who is just the best and has taught me so much. I love watching kids learn and also have 6+ years experience as a math and science tutor from my high school and college days, so am eager to offer my expertise there as well. I am also CPR-certified. I also offer pet care for cats. I don’t have one of my own but I have taken care of many friends’ cats when they are out of town and love the chance to snuggle and play whenever I can get it! I am also happy to help out with other household duties as needed, like grocery shopping, other errands, and organizing the apartment.

Hi! I’m Emily. I grew up in New Hampshire and have lived in New York City for the past eight years. I have over 15 years of childcare experience, beginning with neighborhood babysitting when I was 11 and continuing throughout high school, college, and adulthood. By day, I work in clinical research at Mount Sinai Hospital, where I coordinate patient care and clinical trials. My work has taught me the importance of responsibility, communication, and creating a calm, supportive environment—qualities that I bring to childcare as well. I have experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to teenagers, and am comfortable supervising multiple children at once. Whether we’re doing crafts, playing outside, helping with homework, preparing meals, or winding down for bedtime, I strive to create a safe and engaging environment where children feel comfortable and parents feel confident. I am also comfortable caring for pets, have experience with overnight care, and can provide excellent references from families in both New York City and New England. I look forward to meeting your family!

Hi, my name is Lindsay and I'm a UC Berkeley graduate from Los Angeles, California who moved to NYC last May and currently works in advertising. I love babysitting and have experience independently watching kids as young as 1 and as old as 14. I worked as a summer camp counselor for multiple years where I was in charge of kids between the ages of 4 and 7. I've helped with homework, made food, changed diapers, and planned arts and crafts. I can also serve as a personal assistant and run any errands or help clean up. I grew up with dogs and would be comfortable helping take care of them as well.
