Hi! My name is Jasmin, and I am a responsible and caring babysitter with 14 years of experience working with children of all ages, from infants to preteens. I am passionate about providing a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for your little ones. I believe in engaging children in creative activities such as arts and crafts, outdoor play, and educational games. I am also comfortable helping with homework, meal preparation, and light household duties as needed. I am not CPR and First Aid certified, but I am willing to get certified. I understand the importance of clear communication, so I make it a priority to work closely with parents to meet the unique needs of their families. I expect payment for the full time of the original booking. If a booking is cancelled within 24 hours of the start time, the full rate will still be due. Cancellations made within 48 hours of the start time will require a 50% payment, as it can be difficult to secure alternative work on short notice. I look forward to meeting you and your children!
“Jasmin came early and was very nice, attentive and responsible. My daughters said they liked her and looked forward to seeing her again. I definitely recommend her. Jasmin did a wonderful job. She texted me updates as needed and was able to keep my girls engaged during a long day together. She is reliable, professional and fun; An absolute pleasure to work with.”
Hi! I’m Chris, a Cornell University graduate and Youth Engagement Specialist with over 10 years of experience working with children of all ages, from infants to teens. I also have younger siblings who are over 10 years younger than me, and I helped care for them throughout their upbringing. I specialize in evening, weekend, and date-night childcare, and I enjoy creating a calm, safe, and engaging environment for children while parents are out. I’m dependable, easygoing, and comfortable with bedtime routines, meals, playtime, and light household support as needed. I’d love to connect and see if I’d be a good fit for your family. Feel free to view my intro video to learn more about me, and don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions!
Hi! My name is Hanna, and I’ve always had a passion for working with children and I hope to be an elementary school social worker one day. I’m currently a college student studying Forensic Psychology at John Jay College, and I’ve spent the past few years supporting kids in both classroom and program settings. I’ve worked one-on-one with first graders, led small group activities in after-school programs, and even helped coordinate summer activities for children with autism and learning differences. I’m fluent in both English and Spanish, and I bring a lot of patience, energy, and creativity to every job. I’ve also taken care of toddlers in the past and love helping little ones learn, play, and feel safe. Whether it’s helping with homework, playing games, or simply keeping things calm and fun at home, I’m here to support your family however I can!
