Hi! My name is Ellie and I am a senior at Fordham University majoring in psychology and English. I have been babysitting since I was 15 and would love to take care of your kids :)) In the past, I've made simple meals for kids, picked them up from school, walked them to parks, playdates, and restaurants, and have spent all day hanging out with them! I'm also happy to help organize your home or run errands. I (sadly) have no pets at school, but I have a dog at home and LOVE cats, so I'd be more than happy to meet and care for your pets too!
Hi- My name is Mercedes. I have a Master Degree in Early Childhood. As a toddler teacher, I spend my days singing silly songs, reading animated storybooks, building block towers, and turning everyday moments into fun learning adventures. I’m very familiar with routines (and how important they are!), whether it’s snack time, clean-up time, or winding down for bed. My personality is warm, patient, and playful. I’m the kind of caregiver who will happily sit on the floor to play, love story time, and celebrate even the smallest accomplishments. At the same time, I’m calm, dependable, and confident when handling big feelings or tricky moments. I have experience caring for multiple children at once, planning engaging activities, and creating a safe, nurturing environment where kids feel comfortable and happy. Most importantly, I treat every child like they are my own.
“Mercedes was great! She was timely and responsive and everything is alive still! Would hire again. ”
Compassionate, patient, and highly attentive caregiver with a deep love for children and extensive hands-on experience in childcare within a church community. Currently preparing for motherhood, which further strengthens my understanding of children’s emotional and developmental needs. Dedicated to creating safe, nurturing, and engaging environments for children of all ages.
NYC born and raised (Lower Manhattan), I've been babysitting kids ages 1–12 for years and genuinely love it. Whether it's completing a puzzle on the living room floor, exploring the city together, or picking them up from practice or class, I'm happiest spending time with kids and keeping them engaged. I'm experienced with the full routine from meals, bedtime, baths, the works, and I take full responsibility to make sure everything is taken care of for the child. I have a very flexible schedule over the next few weeks before heading back to college, so I can work around your family's needs.
I am a college student at Fordham University at Lincoln Center majoring in Business and minoring in theater. I am from New Jersey but live in New York during the school year. I have babysat for 8 years with CPR certification. I have been working as a camp counselor for children ages 3-11 for since 2019 to present. I am also a lifeguard since 2023. I love playing with kids and keeping them entertained. I also know New York very well and know my way around safely. I know how to manage accidents and tantrums as well as soothe them when upset. I am also good with young children with special needs if needed.

"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!"
