Priya 1 review
$21 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Priya and I’m 18. I don’t have any paid babysitting experience yet, but I really love being around babies, especially infants. I’m super gentle, patient, and I’m happy to help with things like feeding, diaper changes, or bath time. I’m also totally fine following whatever routine you already have. I’m just here to make things easier and keep your baby happy and comfortable. I’m available part time, and I’d love to help out if you need someone!

Priya is very good with kids especially babies. She babysit a friend’s baby once and did a very good job. The baby was feed, cleaned and in a good mood.

Nicole $21 per hour for 1 child

Experienced and reliable 21-year-old babysitter with over five years of hands-on childcare experience. From a young age, I’ve been the go-to babysitter for family, friends, and neighbors, caring for children of all ages. I officially started babysitting at 16 and have since worked extensively with pre-school and elementary-aged kids, providing attentive, engaging, and nurturing care. Whether helping with homework, organizing fun activities, or ensuring a smooth bedtime routine, I strive to create a safe and enjoyable environment for every child I look after. Currently a senior at Adelphi University, I will be starting dental school at the end of the summer. I have my own car for reliable transportation, making pick-ups, drop-offs, and last-minute scheduling easy. I’m fluent in both English and Russian and also comfortable around pets, as I have two dogs of my own. My experience, patience, and genuine love for working with children make me a dependable choice for any family in need of a caring and responsible babysitter.

Hello everyone. My name is Camira and I’ve been around babies and animals my whole life. I’ve also worked in both a daycare and elementary school as a teachers aid. I love to connect with children through play, music, and laughter. I also enjoy being able to create safe and loving environments for them as well. I’m also a huge cat lover. I recently rescued two kittens, I’ve fostered two kittens, and grew up with my first cat Lucky. I’d love to add to your village and ease your mind during busy schedules.
