Booked by 4 families in Brooklyn, NY

Hello! I am currently a full-time therapist and per diem family support specialist. I am looking to earn extra income to help with my student loans. I have many years of experience with and a passion for helping children of all ages and developmental stages. I can provide child, senior, and pet care. I have been a babysitter for over 12 years, starting when I was in early high school. Additionally, I was a camp counselor for four years (children from 1st grade to juniors in high school), a YMCA afterschool counselor for one year (for 26 pre-K and 1st graders), and a teacher's aide (for 3 pre-K classes) for one year. I have worked with children from pre-K to high school. I have experience working with children and teens who have intellectual and developmental disabilities, existing on a range of verbal and nonverbal capacities, as well as children in foster care. I also helped care for seniors with chronic health conditions for a year too. I have provided these populations a range of services, including but not limited to safe supervised play, arts and crafts, tutoring, prepared snacks, and social skills. I was an executive assistant for a year so I can help with any administrative assistance. I can also help with household chores, errands, grocery shopping. I have been a pet (both dogs and cats) sitter, boarder, and walker for five years. I walked (two times per week for an hour), sat, and boarded one dog specifically regularly for one year. Overall, I have a passion, experience, and the care for working with children, seniors, and pets of all ages. I am kind, fun, detailed, and genuine.

Katrina 2 reviews
$26 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Katrina! 😊 I’ve been the go-to babysitter for my family and friends for many years, and I’ve been caring for children ranging from about 5 months to 9 years old since I was a teenager. I’ve always loved being around kids, and honestly, working with them has always just come naturally to me. I’m patient, caring, dependable, and I really enjoy making kids feel comfortable, happy, and understood. I currently work as a Paraprofessional with the NYC Board of Education in Williamsburg, where I work closely with children in special education. I’ve worked one-on-one with children with ADHD, autism, developmental delays, speech disorders, and different sensory and behavioral needs. I’ve also worked with children from Pre-K through 2nd grade, so I’m very comfortable with different ages, personalities, routines, and learning styles. When I babysit, I don’t want kids to feel like they’re just being “watched.” I love keeping them busy with fun, age-appropriate activities while still giving them structure and following their normal routines. Depending on your child’s age and interests, we might: • 🎶 Sing songs and play movement games • 📅 Practice days of the week, months, letters, numbers, etc. • 🎨 Color, do crafts, and other hands-on activities • 🔢 Play counting and early-learning games • 💃 Dance, listen to music, and have a little fun • 📚 Read stories and have story time • 🧁 Bake or do simple kitchen activities (I’m actually a baking & pastry graduate!) I’m especially comfortable working with children who may need a little extra patience, structure, reassurance, or help communicating their needs. I always try to meet each child where they are and make sure they feel safe, respected, and comfortable with me. ✨ Availability: Pickups, summer days, occasional weekends, school/DOE days off, and other occasional babysitting needs. I currently have availability for Wednesdays through Fridays ! I’d love the chance to get to know your family and hopefully become someone you and your little one feel comfortable having around. 💜

“Katrina has been an amazing sitter to our two kids (and dog!) for many years. She's so sweet, very reliable, engaging and fun with the kids. She's thoughtful and comes up with fun activities, the kids love her and we consider her family. She is bright, warm and tidy.”

Hi! My name is Kayley, I am a part time college student & I’ve been working with children for about five years. I truly enjoy spending time with kids and creating a safe, caring, and fun environment where they feel comfortable being themselves. My experience includes working as an afterschool group leader, volunteer teacher, and neighborhood tutor/babysitter where I’ve worked with children of different ages, helped with homework and learning, led creative and recreational activities that supported their everyday routines and development. I’m patient, dependable, and nurturing and I love making each day a little more fun and meaningful. I have a Pediatric CPR/AED certification and am eager to continue building meaningful relationships with families and the children I care for.
