Maya $15 per hour for 1 child

Hi- My name is Maya and I am currently a junior at NYU. I am offering childcare, pet care, and household services. I have always loved being a babysitter and spending time with kids and have taken care of mostly 4 year olds and older and a 1 year old since being in high school. I also worked as a summer camp counselor for 3 years with loads of different aged children. I also tutored young children in high school and have worked with high school children since being in college. A fun fact about me is I am fluent in French if any children happen to be needing language help. I am mostly looking for childcare opportunities as I absolutely adore looking after children and watching them grow and experience all the energy and joy they have to offer. I am a responsible, attentive, and energetic caretaker, am very patient when need be, and will be able to communicate with children and parents about anything that may come up. I can also work as a household assistant and can run errands, as well as love caring for all sorts of animals and would also be interested in pet care services. *I will be out of town June 19-29 my schedule is very clear and flexible before and after that

Mary Ellen $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Mary Ellen (M.E. for short). I’m a warm, compassionate, attentive caretaker and graduate student. I’m looking for part-time to full-time opportunities while I complete my degree. I have experience with infants, toddlers, pre-teens, special needs adults, and pets. I currently provide community habilitation services to young women with autism and intellectual disabilities, including remote job coaching, mentorship, and executive functioning support. With years of reporting, interviewing, and managing complex workflows as a journalist, I bring strong communication, patience, and problem-solving skills to caregiving.

I’m organized, dependable, and skilled at creating structure while encouraging independence and creativity. My experience collaborating with diverse communities has strengthened my ability to connect with individuals from different backgrounds and build trust quickly. Above all, I’m empathetic and committed to fostering a safe, positive environment where each individual feels heard, supported, and engaged.
