Hi! My name is Xarializ, and I’m a warm, patient, and reliable caregiver with a genuine passion for supporting families. I have 1–2 years of hands-on experience working with infants as well as toddlers with special needs and disabilities. Those experiences have taught me to be attentive, nurturing, and adaptable to each child’s unique needs. **Services I Offer** I provide child care, senior companionship, and pet care. My goal is always to make life easier, safer, and more enjoyable for the people (and pets!) I work with. I’ve cared for infants, helping with feeding, soothing, developmental play, and establishing routines. I also have meaningful experience working with toddlers with special needs, where I’ve supported sensory play, communication development, and gentle structure. I enjoy activities like creative play, reading, outdoor walks, and simple crafts. I’m comfortable helping with homework, basic tutoring, meal prep, and providing a calm, structured environment. I also stay informed about safety practices and child-development approaches, and I take pride in being a dependable, supportive presence for little ones. I have experience offering non-medical senior care, including companionship, meal prep, light housekeeping, and driving to appointments or errands. I enjoy providing support because I genuinely value kindness, patience, and helping seniors feel safe, respected, and cared for. I absolutely love animals—especially cats! I have experience caring for a variety of pets and I’m comfortable with different breeds and temperaments. I can help with walking, feeding, playing, litter box cleaning, and giving your fur babies lots of attention. I’m also comfortable with larger animals and pets that shed. Cat sitting is something I especially enjoy because I love their personalities, their routines, and the calm, cozy energy they bring to a home. Overall, I bring compassion, responsibility, and a positive attitude to every job. I genuinely enjoy building trust and making sure the families and pets I care for feel supported and understood.
Hi- I’m Michaela. I’m 29. I’ve been working with kids since I was 16, and over the years, I’ve had the chance to work with children and teens ages 3 to 19 in all kinds of settings. I’ve worked as a teacher, in early intervention, in elementary schools, and as a school social worker, including with autistic children. No matter the role, my focus has always been on creating a supportive and engaging environment where kids feel safe, understood, and encouraged to grow. Right now, I’m pursuing my Doctorate in Social Work at LIU because I want to deepen my understanding of child and family well-being. I do this work because I love it—helping kids thrive is incredibly important to me, and I bring patience, experience, and a genuine passion for working with children to everything I do.
Hi there! My name is Katie, and I am a graduate from the University of Chicago and Masters student living in Williamsburg. I have 4 years of experience caring for children ranging from toddlers to teens, as well as pets. I am also very skilled in cleaning, cooking, organization, and general proactive tidiness. I’m known for being energetic, caring, and proactive, and prioritize being punctual and highly communicative. Whether it’s a creative craft afternoon, help with homework, or navigating a busy playground, I prioritize safety, engagement, and compassion above all else. Regarding pet care, I am incredibly passionate about loving and caring for our pets who give us love unconditionally. I recently lost my childhood dog of 17 years to kidney disease, and know exactly what it feels like to want to give your pet the world. I will make sure to do everything in my power to give that love to your pet. Quick Facts: • Safety: CPR & First Aid Certified. • Logistics: I live near the L and G trains and am very comfortable navigating the city. • Specialties: Homework and schooling help, mentorship (in academics, leadership, and sports), activities (athletics, crafts, reading, walking, games), meal prepping, cleaning, laundry, proactive organization • Availability: Open for mornings Mon-Sat, all afternoons excluding Sat, all early mornings Mon-Fri, evenings excluding Fri and Sat I am passionate about spreading joy and compassion with all that I meet - adults, children, and pets alike - and most importantly, helping people.

Hi! Thank you for taking a look at my profile! I graduated from NYU with my bachelor’s in Biology on the premed track. I now currently work as a research technician at MSK. I’m pretty new to this app, however I’ve had several years of experience caring for my younger sister along with other family members. I’m mostly open to part time/date night positions. I’m also available for tutoring and homework help particularly in the areas of math and science. If you think we’d be a good fit, please don’t hesitate to reach out!
