Find a last-minute babysitter in New York, NY

Hi, my name is Marae and I love working with kids!! I've been babysitting for about 5 years now and out of all my jobs, it's always been my favorite:) Being the daughter of an elementary school teacher I was raised with a deep appreciation for peace + love, and I love keeping that cycle going! I'm open to all aspects of care-taking for children (including any special needs for neurodivergent children), except driving and changing diapers. I am also open to house-care such as grocery shopping, laundry, tidying up, etc. I am currently in college, so I don't have my degree yet but I'm working on it!

Originally from Buffalo, NY, I moved to Manhattan in 2024 to continue my education. I’m 25 years old and hold a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology with a focus on Childhood Development from Nazareth College. After graduating in 2022, I spent two years working in a psychiatric facility supporting children with mental health needs, working with kids as young as 5 and up to 17 years old. Caring for children has always been something I genuinely love. During my earlier years in school, I also nannied for several families, gaining hands-on experience with infants as young as 2 months old as well as families with multiple children. These experiences have helped me develop patience, empathy, and a strong understanding of children at different developmental stages. In my free time, I love staying active and engaged with kids by playing soccer, exploring parks, and visiting museums. I’m also a big dog lover and am very comfortable around pets. I’m passionate about creating a safe, nurturing, and fun environment where children feel supported and cared for.

Hi! I'm Haneen — a product designer with a background in architecture, and someone who has genuinely always loved being around kids. I grew up looking after younger siblings and cousins, and have helped out friends and family as a babysitter over the years, so I'm comfortable with the rhythms of caring for little ones even if it's not my full-time world. I'm creative by nature and training, and I'd love to bring that into time spent with kids, teaching them to draw, paint, work through a puzzle, or just make something fun with whatever's around. I speak Arabic fluently too, which kids tend to find pretty exciting. I'm available part-time and happy to work with most age groups, I don't have a specialty, but I'm attentive, patient, and good at reading what a kid needs in the moment. One small thing: I'm allergic to cats, so homes with cats aren't a great fit, but dogs are totally fine by me! If you're looking for someone reliable, warm, and a little creative to spend time with your kids, I'd love to connect.

Hi, my name is Renée! I have national and international experience in childcare, teaching, and mentoring children to young adults. For each job, I’ve dedicated myself to the child’s well-being. I’m willing to work in any capacity, and I look forward to meeting you :)

Hi! My name is Sarah, I’m an LA-raised NYC dweller and lover of kids. As the oldest of 7 close cousins, I’ve been babysitting pretty much since I could hold a bottle. After moving to New York for school, I majored in Creative Writing and minored in Child and Adolescent Mental Health Studies. I have babysat for a few families in the city (some for several years) for kids ranging in age from 18 months to 12 years. I’m seasoned in putting restless toddlers to bed, whipping up fun arts and crafts and making excellent after school snacks!
