Hello! My name is Haley and I work full time for planned parenthood as a staff attorney. I live in the Astoria neighborhood, and have been providing childcare for family, friends, and some wonderful families I’ve met for over 10 years. I’ve worked with children infant aged up to teenagers and am comfortable around pets.
“Haley was prompt and professional. She was great with my over tired little one and quickly got her to sleep. ”
Hi! My name is Miel, and I am a 20-year-old student at the University of Texas at Austin, where I study Health and Society on the pre-med track. I have been babysitting for several years and have experience caring for children of different ages, including helping with homework, preparing meals and snacks, organizing activities, managing bedtime routines, and ensuring children feel safe and supported while their parents are away. In addition to babysitting, I worked with first graders through The GO Project, a nonprofit educational program in New York City. In this role, I helped students with reading and math, supported classroom activities, encouraged positive behavior, and built meaningful relationships with children from diverse backgrounds. This experience strengthened my patience, communication skills, and ability to connect with young children in a fun and engaging way. I am CPR-aware, highly responsible, organized, and dependable. As a pre-med student with experience volunteering in pediatric healthcare settings, I am comfortable remaining calm under pressure and attentive to children's needs. I love arts and crafts, reading, outdoor activities, games, and helping children learn and build confidence. Families describe me as warm, mature, trustworthy, and someone who genuinely enjoys spending time with kids. My goal is always to create a safe, positive, and nurturing environment where children feel happy, supported, and cared for.
“Excellent babysitter.”
Hi! My name is Hanna, and I’ve always had a passion for working with children and I hope to be an elementary school social worker one day. I’m currently a college student studying Forensic Psychology at John Jay College, and I’ve spent the past few years supporting kids in both classroom and program settings. I’ve worked one-on-one with first graders, led small group activities in after-school programs, and even helped coordinate summer activities for children with autism and learning differences. I’m fluent in both English and Spanish, and I bring a lot of patience, energy, and creativity to every job. I’ve also taken care of toddlers in the past and love helping little ones learn, play, and feel safe. Whether it’s helping with homework, playing games, or simply keeping things calm and fun at home, I’m here to support your family however I can!
“She was professional, showed up on time, and followed all the instructions I had. My kid warmed up to her really quickly and she even got my kiddo to sleep on her nap! ”
Hi! My name is Lois. I am nanny/babysitter with 10+ years of experience. I have worked with a wide range of families and age ranges from infants to pre-teens. This has equipped me with a quick mind and adaptability for any situation. I love to combine my love of theater and knowledge to create engaging activities for kids that allow them to not only learn but expand their sense of self expression . I have some prior experience working with kids with on the spectrum, and I am CPR and First Aid Certified. Excited to meet you!
“Our family was so lucky to find Lois! During a 6 month project Lois came in and provided my two children (6 and 9) with after school care. Lois is prompt, kind and efficient. She was flexible with my evolving schedule and able to accommodate us during the random days off during the school year. Lois is incredibly fun, energetic and full of fantastic imaginative ideas. Always ready to run in the sunshine with both kids at the park, she was equally adept at making a rainy day fun. She played with both my creative story loving younger child, and could effortlessly flip over to a fun competitive game of pokemon or chess with my older child. There was always music and laughter. They never wanted her to leave.”
