I'm a native New Yorker working on getting my undergraduate in Fashion Design. I have 5+ years experience in childcare, and can work with children or infants. As of recently, I have worked with toddlers and older babies. In my free time I love to sew, go to the park and make music!
Hello! My name is Phoebe, and I'm currently based in Manhattan. Prior to moving to NYC, I lived in Colorado, where I studied Sociology at CU Boulder. I love working with kids, and have experiences nannying with all ages. I've worked as a camp counselor for many years, so I'm pretty handy when it comes to outdoor games and activities! I also love to cook, and love getting kids involved in cooking, crafts, and other fun activities. I am happy to help with Travel, Housekeeping, and Cooking!
Hello! My name is Jasmine and I’m offering babysitting services for all ages. I provide the perfect balance of fun, care, and routine. I know how important it is to make sure your kids stick to their routine, and I’ll be able to do that! I’m pretty funny and great at entertaining kids. Kids usually gravitate towards me! My inner child is very much alive so whether they’re going to the park or staying home, I’ll make sure the kids are occupied with games, story time, or homework. I have no problem helping with homework! By the time you get home, the homework will be done and toys will be cleaned up…unless they’re still playing of course. I went to Barnard College where I majored in psychology. I graduated in 2015. During my undergrad I was part of the Barnard Babysitting Agency for at least 3 years (I can't remember if I joined my freshman year or sophomore year). During that time I had several consistent babysitting jobs. I mostly had toddlers, but on occasion I had young children around 8 years old. I also babysat twin teenagers for a short time. I have experience changing diapers, cooking food, heating up food in a household with no microwave, and some housekeeping (dishes, tidying up). I have experience taking kids to afterschool activities like karate, the park, and the children's museum. To show I go the extra mile, I don’t have piano training, but I once helped one of the children I was babysitting practice their piano lessons. On that day he improved and I learned how to play Ol McDonald Had a Farm. In my family, I have a baby cousin who I have babysat since she was just a few months old (she's 13 now!) I’m great with kids and also pets! If you have a cat, dog, snake, bird, hamster, I’m a lover of all animals and I’m not allergic to any!
“Jasmine Ruiz has babysat my 13-year-old daughter, and I cannot say enough wonderful things about her! Jasmine is kind, caring, responsible, and very personable. She has a natural ability to connect with teenagers and understands their language, interests, and personalities, which makes such a difference. My daughter feels comfortable, happy, and, most importantly, safe in Jasmine’s care. Jasmine is not someone who simply supervises children; she genuinely engages with them, plays games, interacts, and makes sure they have a great time. She is also a great cook and wonderful with animals, which is an added bonus! One of the qualities I appreciate most about Jasmine is her communication. At the end of each day, she provides thoughtful feedback about how everything went. She is very observant and vigilant, and if she notices any concerns, she makes sure parents are informed. As a mother, having someone who is trustworthy, attentive, nurturing, and genuinely enjoys spending time with children gives me tremendous peace of mind. I highly recommend Jasmine Ruiz to any family looking for a dependable, compassionate, and engaging babysitter. She is truly a gem! ❤️”
Hi! My name is Anaya and I am a Sophomore at Purchase college but I am based in Brooklyn, New york. I am offering child care as well as the occasional pet care.

Although I cannot cook, I can help kids with their homework, keep them company, play with them, keep the house nice and tidy, and run errands via public transportation. Im available every day except for the weekends (Friday Saturday and Sunday)and work mainly in the afternoon/evening. Feel free to reach out!!
Hi— my name is Ava and I’m a current graduate student studying at Columbia University. I am offering childcare and household services. I love kids and have been working with them for the past 4 years. I have 3 years experience of teaching toddlers survival swim, and 2 years of teaching and camp counselor experience with elementary aged children. I have also been a babysitter for my own younger siblings, one of which has a disability. All of this experience has given me patience needed to work well with kids :) I enjoy doing outdoor activities, arts and crafts, and reading to kids. I can also clean and run errands. The one thing I cannot do is drive, but hopefully that is not too much of a problem in the city.
