I grew up in a large Haitian family so I've been babysitting for as long as I can remember. When my studies brought me to Hamilton College, I continued to babysit for professors and administrators alike. There I pursued an interdisciplinary major in Genetics & Social Justice with a focus on reproductive health. As part of my major, I got the opportunity to study maternal and child health in the U.S., Vietnam, South Africa, and Argentina. Living and learning in such different environments exposed me to children of all ages and backgrounds and taught me that in the absence of a shared spoken language, games are a universal language that can create a genuine connection with children all over the world. For the past 8 years, I've worked as a private tutor with elementary school-aged children and provided academic support in a variety of subjects. In addition to this, I provide semi-regular and occasional childcare services. If you'd like to book me, send me a message and I'll respond as soon as possible. Policies 1. I require a minimum of 48 hours notice if you’d like to cancel or reschedule a booking. Otherwise, I expect 50% of the payment for the booking. 2. I request a car service home for bookings ending after 8 pm. 3. I am willing to care for sick children as long as they’re not contagious, but please notify me in advance so I can plan accordingly. 4. I expect payment for the full booking even if you return home early. 5. My booking minimum is 3 hours. 6. My pricing for babysitting and private tutoring are distinct. Feel free to inquire, however, if you're interested in my pricing for tutoring services. Best wishes, Joany

Hi! I'm Olivia. Thanks for visiting my profile. A little about me: I have 15 years of experience as both a full-time and part-time babysitter. Currently, I work as a full-time Lower School teacher at a private school in NYC, so I can babysit during weekday evenings and weekends. **Note: I live in both NJ and NYC, so I can work in either place.** A brief history: From 2012 to 2017 (before I left NYC temporarily for grad school), I babysat for 10-40 hours each week. From 2[removed], I worked as a substitute elementary/middle teacher while attending grad school. From 2020-2021, I was a full-time teacher at a private school in Florida, where I taught fourth grade reading, writing and science. In late 2021, I returned to NYC and to NYC/NJ babysitting! My experience ranges from newborns to 14-year-olds, with every age in between. I have an M.F.A. in fiction writing, and I especially enjoy sharing my love of books & reading. I also love simply chatting with kids, answering their (hilarious/profound/thought-provoking) questions, and playing their favorite off-screen game. I am skilled in social-emotional learning (SEL) and working with children with ASD (autism spectrum disorder), Levels I, II, and III; OCD; and ADHD. I am also skilled in helping kids cope with anxiety, anxious thinking, or anxiety-related behavior patterns. My hobbies include reading, spending time with my friends, and kayaking. I was born in Manhattan, and I grew up in North and South Florida. Some other helpful info: I am comfortable with pets and light housework/pet care. I’m comfortable babysitting sick children as long as you let me know in advance.

Booked by 256 families in Cliffside Park, NJ

Hello and welcome to my profile! My name is Carolina, I’m a 31 year old dog lover and passionate about fashion and beauty. I’ve always loved babies and kids, and have been a babysitter for 14 years, started with local families in my hometown when I was in High School, and continued doing it for families around New York since I moved to the city in 2018. I am CPR and First Aid certified (willing to provide proof) and have 16 years of experience with all ages from newborns to teenagers. I always decide and adapt the activities I do with them according to their age and interests, but some of my favorite things to do with the kids are: - Teaching them Spanish - Spending time outdoors at parks or playgrounds - Drawing, crafting, and reading - Building legos, blocks, or puzzles - Baking and cooking IMPORTANT: - I was a preemie baby and I catch viruses and colds easily, so I cannot babysit sick babies/kids. BOOKING POLICIES: If the booking starts later or ends earlier than expected, I still expect the payment for the original booking agreed. CANCELLATIONS: For cancellations with less than 48 hours notice, I require 50% of the original booking amount and for the ones with less than 24 hours notice, 100% of the original booking amount, which can be paid via Zelle or Venmo. Feel free to send a message if you have any questions. I am very much looking forward to meeting you and your children.

“Carolina was very nice and sweet for our little one, highly recommend her!”

Hi! My name is Samantha and I am looking forward to meeting you and your family! I am originally from the UK but I have lived in the city now for 15 years. I am a college Graduate with a degree in Education and I have been a regular babysitter for family and friends since the age of 16. I have fantastic experience caring for children of all ages. My current 9-5 job is as the Director of a program for children aged birth-21 with developmental disabilities in the foster care system so I also go into their homes regularly. It is my responsibility to assess their needs and ensure they are getting the services they need. I am available evenings after 5pm and weekends. Any questions please feel free to reach out. I also have background checks from my current job which I can provide to families upon request and I am certified in CPR and First Aid.

“Great job thanks so much!!”

Hello Families, My name is Angela, and I am from Colombia. I am a graduate student in Public Health. I have been caring for children for the past 18 years. I am CPR/First Aid certified and possess a California driver's license. I am current on all my vaccines. I am also a certified Postpartum Doula with over 13 years of experience. My philosophy is to support the baby, the mom, and the family in creating a balanced and loving environment. I am highly dedicated to my work and take it seriously. I enjoy activities such as engaging in art projects, visiting parks, museums, and zoos, going for walks, and baking with children. I appreciate parents who provide clear instructions for their children's routines, set boundaries, and communicate effectively. One preference I have is that children usually stay away from screens while with me, except on weekends, although I respect if parents prefer otherwise. Please feel free to contact me if you have any further questions!
