Chloe $19 per hour for 1 child

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.

Tova $22 per hour for 1 child

I have a lifetime of experience working with children. I’ve been babysitting regularly since I was old enough, have worked as a full-time nanny, and have extensive understanding of childcare and learning through my mother, who runs a preschool in Connecticut. I’ve worked at her school directly and have also held several long-term babysitting and nannying positions, with kids ranging from infants through 12-year-olds. I’m also a freelance designer, so my schedule is flexible! I’m high-energy, ebullient, and genuinely love to play—why shouldn’t it be fun for both of us? I’m especially interested in activities that spark kids’ curiosity while helping them build skills and a deeper understanding of the world. I’m very hands-on and love to craft, make things, and get immersed alongside kids. I went to film school and enjoy doing creative projects such as making short movies together, which can be a great way to combine storytelling, collaboration, and play. I’m also comfortable preparing meals and snacks, and enjoy putting together food that works for kids and their routines. I had wonderful babysitters growing up, and really can’t overstate how much I value the time I spent with them! I also spent part of my childhood in the city, and know how rich and engaging it can be for a developing person with the right kind of guidance. I was raised around Reggio Emilia principles (my mom is Bank Street–educated, and I went to a Reggio school myself), and those ideas have deeply shaped how I think about children, learning, and play. I aim to be someone kids feel excited to spend time with and parents feel completely confident trusting—curious, attentive, and genuinely invested in making each day engaging, supportive, and fun. I’m new to this site, but have some fantastic references should you like to speak to someone! Don’t hesitate to reach out, thanks so much :-)
