Melissa $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Melissa, a 27 year old longtime babysitter, newly back in the U.S. after three years in London. I’ve been babysitting for over 10 years, with experience ranging from toddlers to early teens. I first became the go-to sitter in my neighborhood growing up in Philadelphia, and word quickly spread - my parents’ coworkers started calling on me too! Over the years, I’ve also taken on pet-sitting duties for both dogs and cats, sometimes for a few days and other times for several weeks at a time. I’m responsible, communicative, and deeply respectful of the routines and values that matter to each family. Whether it’s about technology rules, food habits, learning styles, or anything else, I believe it’s important to honor the tone and philosophy of the household I’m stepping into. Outside of babysitting, I’m a young professional who recently moved back from London to pursue a career pivot from a finance job into music (one of my lifelong passions). I am also currently getting ready to move into my first solo apartment (big milestone!), and I’m looking to make some extra income doing something I genuinely love: supporting families and spending time with kids. If you’re looking for someone warm, reliable, and adaptable with a global perspective (and a big appetite for fun!) I’d love to connect.

Yaritza $21 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Yaritza, and I’m currently a sophomore at NYU. I’ve had hands-on childcare experience since I was 14, caring for my nieces, which helped me develop a genuine love for working with children. I’m comfortable picking children up from daycare or school, assisting with homework, and engaging them in fun and age-appropriate activities. I’m also happy to help with light cleaning and running errands when needed.

Andria $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! I have over 5 years of paid experience in babysitting. I have a Bachelor’s Degree in Speech Therapy and am currently working on my Master’s degree. I’ve always loved working with children from a young age and would volunteer at daycares which is when my interest first began. Growing up in a big family, and becoming an aunt at an early age I’ve always been surrounded by young children and the love of working and caring with children only continued to grow. Which led me to pursue a career in speech therapy, where I could continue to foster and help children grow. I know sign language in addition to English, and could help with all homework types. I’ve worked with children with varying developmental needs, such as children on the spectrum, children with learning disabilities or those with speech delays. I am great with play time, crafts, and overall entertaining the children in things they might enjoy. I’m happy to answer any questions and see if I’m the right fit for your family!

Sonia $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Sonia! I am recent college graduate with a BFA in Musical Theatre, and I have a lot of experience working with kids. I started in middle school as a Counselor in Training (CIT) at Girl Scout Camp to learn how to best work with kids and help them thrive. In 2018 I started work as a camp counselor at San Diego Junior Theatre, monitoring/Overseeing up to 20 children at a time (ages 5 - 10), preventing incidents and/or managing and reporting incidents as needed, keeping campers safe and engaged throughout the day, and working well with other counselors to ensure a safe, positive experience for campers and staff. Along with working as a camp counselor, I also have done a lot of babysitting for kids ages 5 and up since highschool. Having a younger sibling, I am proficient in helping with homework and engaging in conversation with children of all ages. I also have experience providing care for children under 5, helping to run childcare at a church that watched the very young children during services. I was a part of a group that provided Anti-Bullying education through theatre to children in schools throughout High School as well, so I can help navigate friendship problems if/when they come up. Along with all of that, I also love to cook and bake and would love to help with food prep if needed! Let me know if you have any questions, and I hope I will be a good fit for you and your family!
