Find a last-minute babysitter in Middle Village, NY

Hi! I'm a nurse who's currently looking for intermittent baby-sitting for date nights, errands, emergencies, etc. I've been a NICU nurse for 4 years and prior to that was a full time nanny for 5 years. I also babysat throughout most of middle school, high school, and parts of college. Most of my recent experience is from newborn to three years of age, but I do have experience with older children as well. I love infants and toddlers because they have such wonder and awe for the world around them and it's a special experience to watch and engage with their development and growth. I'm gentle, engaging, empathetic, and sympathetic in my care and avoid screen time when with the children. I love taking children to parks, museums, play dates, etc., but also just as happy to play games and read stories at home. I won't be able to have regularly scheduled gigs as my work schedule changes week by week, but would love to find a family or families to develop a longer term baby-sitting relationship with, as I feel continuity is better for both the children and the carers. I am also BLS and NRP certified. Thanks!

Hello, my name is Leesie! I’m currently a student attending St. John’s University pursuing my undergrad in health & human services. After college I plan to work with children with special needs - my inspiration for this is my dear brother Lincoln whom has autism. He’s my super star and I’ve helped my mom raise him up since I was 10 until leaving home to pursue my education. I hope to be able to help families out there that need assistance with their children from a wide range of ages; struggling work and home life which I know can be super stressful. My interests are out door activities, painting, sports and reading. I have no problem with cleaning after kids/ keeping things tidy also helping with homework if needed… however if you require me to cook I am working on my skills but I’d say I have a moderate ability to do so as a young adult and open to learning more through out this experience.

Hi! My name is Willow and I am a recent grad from NYU. I have some babysitting experience for other families in high school, but most of my experience is with my younger brother from the ages of 0-4. Responsibilities include running errands, outdoor time, crafting, cooking, cleaning the house, and bedtime. I am flexible, warm and patient. Right now I am working part time at Brooklinen, where much of my focus is on making sure people feel welcome. I love meeting new people, and work great one-on-one. Outside of customer service, my job is to maintain a clean and comfortable space. I am calm, flexible, and comfortable balancing interaction with organizational tasks. I also have dog and cat sitting experience. I have had pets my whole life- I love animals and am very comfortable with their care. I have experience with nannying for senior cats over an extended period, and am comfortable with feeding, changing litter, giving medication and playing. With my own dogs, I am comfortable walking them daily, and taking care of hygiene such as teeth brushing and hair brushing.

Hi! I’m Laura, a 35-year-old bilingual (Spanish/English) caregiver with over 10 years of experience working with children ages 4 to 13. I hold a degree in Early Childhood and Elementary Education, and I’m both CPR and First Aid certified. With a strong background in child development and classroom structure, I create safe, engaging, and age-appropriate experiences — whether it’s helping with homework, organizing creative play, or supporting routines like bedtime or mealtime. I'm patient, responsible, and truly enjoy supporting each child’s unique personality and learning style. I’m available Monday through Friday, mornings to evenings, and also some weekends as needed. I’d be happy to provide references and talk more about how I can support your family. Looking forward to connecting!
