Lillie $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Lillie, a college student here in the city! I am offering many services from pet care and childcare to cleaning and household tasks! I have previously worked multiple customer service jobs which have required communicating with people of all ages. One of these jobs was at a bakery where my responsibilities also included a lot of cleaning and organizing. I have younger cousins and neighbors who I have babysat from time to time, and have spent the past two summers caring for my elderly grandmother. This care (for either/and children and the elderly) has included reading and writing, word and board games, and cooking and cleaning. As far as pets go, I have had dogs, cats, and rabbits my whole life, as well as petsit for friends and family.

Annie $14 per hour for 1 child

Low rate to get my first reviews! I have a Neuroscience degree from the University of Michigan, and I'm hoping to build a bigger babysitting network to supplement the income from my part-time job, which involves social media and live comedy. Don't let my lack of reviews scare you away! I'm quite normal and definitely not creepy, and I'm happy to have a quick videochat before you take the plunge and book the unreviewed (but not inexperienced for the record!!) babysitter. I have babysat and nannied extensively over the past 12 years, and am comfortable with infants up to teens. In the past I've worked as a full time fifth grade math support staff in a public school, a preschool swim instructor, and nurse aide in a dementia facility for covid lockdown. I'm very attentive! I'm rarely on my phone when I'm with kids unless it's for something that matters, like to take a cute pic of them or to call a pediatrics MD about a nonurgent health issue—which is actually quite convenient for me because my mom is one. Once I get a handful of reviews, I'll start charging more like $30-40/hr depending on the number of kids. So send a message soon—you don't want to miss these Black Friday deals!

Marchia $35 per hour for 1 child

Hi- my name Marchia. I’m offering childcare, senior care and household services. I am a very humble person, I have a special love for children and the elderly. I am very clean and organized and I enjoy cooking. In my experience working with babies I wholeheartedly enjoy being apart of their formative years and witnessing their personalities coming together. I have approximately 2.5 years experience working with children professionally but almost 20 years in total babysitting and looking after my own brother and cousins. I work really well with seniors and enjoy conversations with them as well.

Bayla $21 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Bayla. I offer childcare, pet care, and household services. I love working with kids! For the last year, I have been working for Reading Partners at an elementary school in Brooklyn, providing extra literacy support to students in grades K-5. This summer I am an assistant teacher at Wonderforest Preschool! I have experience with all age groups. I always center patience, enthusiasm, and understanding when working with kids. I love to allow kids to explore their natural curiosity and better understand who they are. I am looking for a role as an after-school nanny this school year, with flexibility in the afternoon hours. I also have pet care experience and can support with household work where necessary. I am happy to support your family in any way that I can!
