Katelin $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Kate, and I’m a certified educator with a strong background in Montessori education, early childhood and elementary education, special education, general education, and family support. I hold dual certification in Early Childhood Education and Childhood Education, with training and experience supporting children across both general and special education settings. My background includes working in Montessori school environments, supporting student programming, partnering closely with families, and serving as a trusted point of communication between parents, children, teachers, and school leadership. What makes me stand out is the combination of warmth, structure, and professionalism I bring into a home. I understand child development, routines, emotional regulation, independence-building, and the importance of meeting each child where they are. I’m calm, patient, highly organized, and intentional about creating an environment where children feel safe, respected, and engaged. I also love language learning and cultural curiosity. I have studied Spanish, Italian, Chinese, and music, and I enjoy incorporating songs, conversation, reading, creative play, and age-appropriate learning into my time with children when families are interested. Professionally, I’ve worked closely with busy families, school communities, and executive leadership, so I understand the importance of trust, discretion, reliability, and clear communication. I’m especially comfortable with school-aged children and can support homework, reading, routines, creative activities, after-school transitions, bedtime, snacks/meals, and child-related tidying. I’m available for flexible evening and weekend babysitting, including date nights, occasional care, homework support, and family coverage. My goal is to provide care that feels warm, thoughtful, and dependable — so parents can feel fully at ease and children can feel genuinely cared for.

Gemma $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi neighbors! My name is Gemma, and I’m an 18-year-old senior at The Brearley School. I have experience babysitting for local families with children ages 5+, and I’m certified in CPR for infants, children, adults. I am also certified in First Aid. I have worked as a camp counselor and have babysat children ages 4-11 before. I also foster kittens, and have lots of experience with cats. I have owned dogs before as well. I’m warm, reliable, and love keeping kids engaged, whether that’s helping with homework, playing games, or reading together. Please feel free to reach out — I’d love to connect with more families in the neighborhood!

Charlet $27 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Charlet! I’m originally from Portland and now a student at Fordham University here in NYC. I’ve spent the last five years caring for children from infants to age 16 through babysitting as well as some full-time nannying. Caring for kids comes naturally to me, I love to help create a warm, clean, calm, and fun environment where young people feel safe, encouraged, and excited to explore. I’m confident with daily routines, including cleaning, meals, naps, school pickups/dropoffs, bedtime, and playtime. I value clear, consistent communication with parents and always strive to support whatever rhythm works best for your family. I’m CPR certified, reliable, and truly enjoy forming long-lasting, trusting relationships with the families I work with. I’d be happy to provide references, and I’d love to connect with you and your family.

$18 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 3 families in Maspeth, NY

Hi! My name is Gracie, and I’m a current law student at Harvard University and a recent graduate of the University of Wisconsin–Madison. This summer I have an internship in the city and lots of free time compared to the school year! I have over nine years of babysitting experience, plus a lifetime of practice as the oldest sibling (my little sister is ten years younger than me!). I’ve truly grown up around children and care for every child as if they were my own younger sister. I love playing dress-up, building fairy houses, kicking a soccer ball around, reading stories, and spending time at the park. I’d love to meet your family and look forward to connecting!

“Great communicator, reliable, and punctual! All you could want from a sitter.”
