Imani $19 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! My name is Imani. I’ve worked in childcare for about five years and am currently studying Early Childhood Development to further my expertise. I’m also a summer camp counselor, which has taught me how to keep kids engaged and active. I’m known for my sweet, patient nature and my drive to successfully navigate any challenge that comes my way.

Maddie $25 per hour for 1 child

A little bit about me— my name is Maddie and I am 24 years old living on the Upper East Side. I am a full-time data analyst for the National Hockey League. I’ve played sports my entire life and continued to play club lacrosse through college. When I’m not working or being active, I absolutely love cooking! I have over 10 years of experience with children of all ages and needs. I have cared for infants, middle schoolers, and volunteered at special needs camps and after school programs. Some of my responsibilities have included: cooking, running errands, house chores, homework, zoo trips, science experiences, and (my personal favorite) pillow forts. Also, I am very pet-friendly (my family just got a puppy named Robin). I’m looking forward to getting to know your family!

Tameah $28 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Rego Park, NY

As a dedicated nanny, my primary goal is to create a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for children. I am actively working with 2 babies but I have several years of experience working with many age groups, which has equipped me with the skills to handle their diverse needs, from infants to older children. I am comfortable working in homes with pets. My commitment extends beyond basic childcare; I am eager to assist with household tasks and be a helpful part of the family. I pride myself on preparing healthy meals, organizing fun and educational activities, and assisting with homework to support their development. Safety is my top priority, and I hold CPR and First Aid certifications to ensure I can respond effectively in emergencies. I thrive on building strong relationships with both the children and their families, fostering creativity, and encouraging a love for learning.

Mama Rokia $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Rokia! I am 19 years old and an upcoming junior in college studying Public Health to become a midwife! My previous babysitting roles solidified my desire to positively impact children's lives and to support families in any way I can. I have 5 years of experience caring for children, I offer a patient, creative, and friendly approach to childcare. I care for a wide range of age groups starting from infants to school-age. I am comfortable caring for up to three children and enjoy engaging them with outdoor sports, board games, and educational activities. I am comfortable doing overnights, occasional babysitting for date nights, lending extra hand if you need to get work done, or if you just need some solo time! Feel free to message with any inquiries!

Camira $21 per hour for 1 child

Hello everyone. My name is Camira and I’ve been around babies and animals my whole life. I’ve also worked in both a daycare and elementary school as a teachers aid. I love to connect with children through play, music, and laughter. I also enjoy being able to create safe and loving environments for them as well. I’m also a huge cat lover. I recently rescued two kittens, I’ve fostered two kittens, and grew up with my first cat Lucky. I’d love to add to your village and ease your mind during busy schedules.
