Hi, my name is Mariam and It's a pleasure to meet you. I have 7 years of experience caring for infants, toddlers, and older children. In addition to babysitting, I offer drop-off and pickup services for school and other activities. As your babysitter, you can expect me to be responsible, dependable, patient and kind. My passion for childcare was sparked by my previous babysitting experiences, where I honed my ability to foster a safe and stimulating environment for children. As a babysitter I have had the wonderful opportunity to positively impact children's lives. I pride myself on being patient, calm, and creative, always striving to turn each day into a fun-filled learning opportunity. I believe in maintaining open and honest communication with parents, providing regular updates, and following their preferred methods of contact. I respect household rules and take my cues from parents to ensure consistency and alignment with your parenting style. My educational background includes a high school diploma, certification for Patient Care Assistance and some college. Currently, I am a college student pursuing, a degree in psychology. I am comfortable caring for children of all ages, from infants to preteens. If you have any questions or would like to chat further, please don't hesitate to reach out.

Hello- My name is Absa and I am currently a graduate student at New York University. I am offering child care, senior care, and household services. I first began babysitting professionally at the age of 14 for a few families in my neighborhood but since that have developed a lot of experience working in the California Bay Area, Washington, D.C., and NYC areas. I have cared for infants, toddlers, and kids; my responsibilities including crafts, tutoring, even teaching beginner/intermediate level gymnastics. I am comfortable with household services and cooking as well if necessary. I have worked with families with pets in the past, and am happy to again.
“Absa was such a great baby sitter! She was friendly, punctual, communicative, and played really well with my 2 year old. Will hire again :)”
Hi! My name is Andrea and I would be happy to help you care for your children. I am 28 years old and a current university student at Baruch College studying business with a flexible schedule. My experience with children begins from 2[removed]. I have worked with a 14 month old, and two brothers ages 6 and 9 throughout the years. I have also worked as a Teacher's Assistant for after-school religion classes (CCD), and tutored children from low-income groups. Working with your children would be a great opportunity for me and I'd be happy to help you! I am able to provide you my recent reference to further support my qualifications. Hope to hear from you! Thanks
“Andrea helped watch my daughters (11 and 12), and they loved her. She’s calm, sweet, and communicative with them. They enjoy their time with her.”
Hi, I’m Kyundra! I’m 27 and have been working in and out of childcare since 2016. I’ve lived in NYC for the past five years and have loved every minute of getting to know families across the city. Since moving here, I’ve worked in several childcare settings including 4K classrooms with the DOE, after-school programs, and as a trusted babysitter for families with children of all ages. What I love most about working with kids is getting to know their unique personalities and finding ways to connect with each one. Whether it’s through creative play, helping with routines, or supporting learning and independence, I always strive to make children feel seen, supported, and safe. I’m also comfortable around pets (I have a sweet cat named Viola who keeps me company at home!) and I’m open to light household help. While I don’t have a personal car, I do have my license and am happy to travel by public transportation anywhere I’m needed. In my free time, you’ll usually find me hanging out with friends, watching movies, or spending time with Viola. I truly love what I do and would be so excited to get to know you and your family. Please feel free to message me with any questions, I’d love to connect!

"Caitlin was awesome and jumped right in to chaperone four girls (10, 9, 8 and 6) at a family wedding (they were bridesmaids) and she was very helpful with the event as well as taking them home and putting them to bed."

"McKenna was great with our 3 year old son! She came prepared with a box of fun activities and handled playing, dinner, and bedtime seamlessly... and it was all at our hotel while we were in town for a wedding. Thank you McKenna!"
