Sophia $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Sophia :) I am originally from Orange County, CA and graduated in 2022 from UCLA. I recently moved to NYC and work in finance. I work 11-7 (since my team is on the west coast) so am available for childcare any day in the mornings or evenings! I have a huge family with lots of baby cousins and have been babysitting and tutoring since I was in high school. I am extremely organized and clean and will love any activities your child wants to participate in.

Eesha $30 per hour for 1 child

My name is Eesha! I am currently a 4th year medical student looking for an occasional/part-time job. I am offering child care and tutoring services. I have not had any formal baby sitting experience but I have volunteered with SHELL, a school organization that works with children from local orphanages to arrange activities and outings for the kids age 2-16. I spent time working as a peer tutor throughout my education and have tutored and cared for younger kids in my neighborhood while in high school. I am good with arts and crafts, board games, tutoring and homework help. I can also work as a household assistant. I am very detail-oriented and can multitask well. I am BLS certified and have been EMT certified in the past. As a current medical student, I am aware of common child safety concerns and have had hands on experience working with children of all ages in a clinical capacity. I am happy to work with families that have dogs and cats.

Booked by 1 family in Whitestone, NY

Hi there! I'm a senior in the Childhood Education program at Hunter College. I'm compassionate, patient, curious, and playful. I have extensive experience caring for children ages 2 to 11. Additionally, I have cared for newborns, infants, and children with special needs. I'm passionate about providing a safe and nurturing environment that fosters positive development for children. I also love learning about children's interests and engaging in play with them. Looking forward to connecting with you and your family!

“Julia did an incredible job. She is attentive and communicative. She demonstrated her experience caring for one of my cats who is sick. I recommend her for anyone looking for a sitter, especially longterm. ”

Myleah 1 review
$22 per hour for 1 child

My name is Myleah and I’m a 19 yo sophomore at NYU. I am so excited to work with you and your family! Child care is my passion, so any child in my care will be treated as so. I’ve been babysitting for 3 years and was a camp counselor in 2025. I have experience working with infants-14year olds, so I’m open to all! My favorite activity to do with children is play pretend, crafts, dancing, and singing! I’m also open to sports and cater to children’s special interests. I can help tutor, cook, paint, etc! I am CPR and First Aid Trained, as well as a mandated reporter.

“We have had Myleah in our family a couple times and she’s been an amazing and reliable babysitter for us. My little ones love her. She arrives on time and asks many needed questions to give my kids the best care. She is dependent and trustworthy. In addition, my kids have great time with her and she even helps around the house and helps kids with homework. Overall very great.”
