Eesha $25 per hour for 1 child

My name is Eesha! I am currently a 4th year medical student looking for an occasional/part-time job. I am offering child care and tutoring services. I have not had any formal baby sitting experience but I have volunteered with SHELL, a school organization that works with children from local orphanages to arrange activities and outings for the kids age 2-16. I spent time working as a peer tutor throughout my education and have tutored and cared for younger kids in my neighborhood while in high school. I am good with arts and crafts, board games, tutoring and homework help. I can also work as a household assistant. I am very detail-oriented and can multitask well. I am BLS certified and have been EMT certified in the past. As a current medical student, I am aware of common child safety concerns and have had hands on experience working with children of all ages in a clinical capacity. I am happy to work with families that have dogs and cats.

Booked by 1 family in Brooklyn, NY

I'm a 37 year old mostly WFH advertising writer who loves dogs, cats, kids and has plenty of time to hang out with yours! I've pet sat since I was a kid and have always enjoyed helping out owners while getting quality time with a variety of fun pets. I live in Cobble Hill and am very close to several parks and paths where I love to walk. I’ve marked that I'm fine with pets being on the furniture (because who doesn’t love snuggles!) but we’ll enforce any rules you have for consistency.

“Sarah is an absolutely incredible dogsitter! She has watched my shiba inu, Goji, for several years and he is truly obsessed with her. Sarah is kind, responsible, reliable, and highly competent at dog care. We feel lucky to have found Sarah as a sitter and always trust that Goji is in good hands with her.”
