Hi! My name is Ariana and I’m a responsible and energetic caregiver with years of hands-on experience working with kids in a variety of settings. I’ve spent summers at a relaxed arts and crafts camp for children ages 7–13, leading creative projects, outdoor games, and group activities. I’ve also coached youth soccer for kids ages 3–12, focusing on teamwork, fun, and skill-building. During high school, I worked as a certified lifeguard for four years, which taught me strong safety awareness and emergency readiness — qualities I bring to every caregiving role. In addition to my professional experience, I’ve regularly cared for younger family members and love connecting with kids through creativity, sports, and play. I’m currently finishing my degree at Barnard College of Columbia University, where I’ve continued to nurture my love for learning and teaching. Whether it’s helping with homework, organizing fun activities, or just being a calm and supportive presence, I aim to make kids feel safe, seen, and engaged. Above all, I strive to be as helpful as possible to the families I work with. I’m dependable, patient, and always ready to support in whatever way I can.
Hi, I’m Mia. I graduated from Rutgers University, and as the oldest of five siblings, caring for others has always been a big part of who I am. I’ve helped care for my younger siblings since I was young, and I’ve spent years caring for children of all ages, from newborns to school-aged kids. My siblings even call me their second mom, which is one of the greatest compliments I could receive. I’m comfortable with feeding, nap and bedtime routines, homework help, activities, transportation, and creating a safe, positive environment where children can thrive. What I love most is building genuine connections with kids, celebrating their milestones, encouraging their growth, and being a dependable, caring presence in their lives. I also had the privilege of helping care for both of my grandparents, who lived to 90 years old. That experience taught me patience, compassion, and the importance of providing thoughtful support. I’m comfortable assisting with companionship, meal preparation, errands, and day-to-day senior care needs. In addition to childcare and senior care, I have experience as a household assistant and enjoy helping families keep their homes running smoothly. Whether it’s cooking, organizing, tidying up, grocery shopping, or running errands, I’m happy to help make daily life a little easier. I’m allergic to cats, but I’m very comfortable around dogs and would be happy to work with families who have them. I pride myself on being reliable, attentive, and easy to communicate with, and I look forward to supporting a family in whatever way they need most.
Hello! I’m bilingual (English/ Spanish) and nannied for 3 years, throughout college. I have also babysat children of all ages for >10 years. I love arts and crafts, cooking, and being outdoors. I can help with light household chores if needed. When I’m not babysitting, you can find me at my day job, volunteering at my community garden, or hanging out with friends. My rates are negotiable and depend on the level of care / responsibility needed. I’m happy to answer any questions you may have!
Hi! My name is Kayley, I am a part time college student & I’ve been working with children for about five years. I truly enjoy spending time with kids and creating a safe, caring, and fun environment where they feel comfortable being themselves. My experience includes working as an afterschool group leader, volunteer teacher, and neighborhood tutor/babysitter where I’ve worked with children of different ages, helped with homework and learning, led creative and recreational activities that supported their everyday routines and development. I’m patient, dependable, and nurturing and I love making each day a little more fun and meaningful. I have a Pediatric CPR/AED certification and am eager to continue building meaningful relationships with families and the children I care for.
Hi ! My name is Jessica, I am very outgoing and would love to provide my services where needed. I have good experience with kids, I tend to help family members with taking care of my cousins. As well as taking care of my niece, picking her up from her designated bus stop and helping her with homework. I love working with pets as well, I have a cat and dog of my own, so there will be no issue with shedding. Activities that I do enjoy are painting, running, reading, dancing and talking.

"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!"
