Hi! My name is Joy and I’m a college student at NYU studying Economics! I am a non-smoker and CPR, AED, Basic Life Support Certified. I have a little sister who’s 12 and I have taken care of her — driving her to and from lessons, going on walks with her, and generally enjoying time whenever I am home from school. I also have experience with grade school aged children and toddlers. I love being around children and their joyful energy is always amazing. I am a flexible babysitter and will treat all kids with the utmost respect and provide quality care. Over high school summers, I was an outdoor pool lifeguard (International Lifeguard Training Program & American Red Cross trained), and I am comfortable with CPR & AED responsibilities. I am also trained in Basic Life Support. On another note, I am happy to help with homework, test prep for older kids, and basic piano/music theory. Feel free to reach out!
“Joy is a fantastic caregiver with great attention to detail. My kids are happy every time she comes!”
Hello! My name is Kasi and I’m a student at AMDA. I am offering childcare, pet care, and household services. I’ve been babysitting since I was 14, volunteered at elementary schools, and worked at a summer camp for 2 years. I am able to tutor, teach crafts, give voice lessons, and on occasion walk to and from school. I am CPR certified. I love to cook, enjoy cleaning and organization. I am able and willing to run errands and do household chores. I love animals and while I have the most experience with dogs I’m willing to learn how to take care of other animals as well.
I’m an experienced and energetic nanny and babysitter with several years of caring for children ranging from 6 months to 12 years old. I’ve successfully managed busy households with up to five children and multiple pets, keeping routines organized while creating a warm, fun environment for kids to grow and feel supported. I love engaging children through drawing, singing, and creative play, and I bring a naturally bubbly, positive personality to every family I work with. As a former camp counselor, I’m also experienced in leading groups of children, planning activities, and maintaining a safe, structured environment while making sure kids have a great time.
Hi! My name is Michelle, and I work remotely as a consultant Monday through Friday. In addition to my professional work, I’m offering reliable child care, senior care, pet care, and household services to families in need of extra help. I’ve been caring for children of all ages since I was 14, and I truly enjoy creating fun, safe, and nurturing environments for them. I also volunteered at a preschool, where I loved helping the kids learn and grow through play and creative activities. Along with childcare, I have experience caring for seniors — especially my grandparents — and understand the importance of patience, kindness, and companionship. I’m responsible, caring, and easy to work with & I take pride in providing the kind of care that you can rely on. I’d be more than happy to chat over the phone or meet in person so you can get to know me better and feel completely comfortable :)
Hi I'm Daché! I'm from the Bronx and attend at Lehman College. I offer child care and have limited availability while school is in session. What qualifies me as a great caregiver for children is that I have years of experience working in various settings (schools, camps, daycare programs) with children between the ages of 6mo-4 years. I also have personality traits that are congruent with providing great care like patience, compassion, attentiveness, and creativity. I am not currently certified in CPR but I am willing to redo it. I have also completed over 40 hours of trainings related to caring for children 0-5 years old and am happy to provide proof and references for past jobs. I am comfortable working with both dogs and cats in the home, and I can also perform light cleaning, run errands, meal prep for the child/children, etc.

"Caitlin was awesome and jumped right in to chaperone four girls (10, 9, 8 and 6) at a family wedding (they were bridesmaids) and she was very helpful with the event as well as taking them home and putting them to bed."
Lila P., parent

"McKenna was great with our 3 year old son! She came prepared with a box of fun activities and handled playing, dinner, and bedtime seamlessly... and it was all at our hotel while we were in town for a wedding. Thank you McKenna!"
