Sittercity helps Rochester families find the best babysitters

Hi! I’m Tamika Lavrich. I currently work full-time at the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard, but my heart has always belonged to working with children. I’ve spent over two and a half years working with preschool-aged kids, and I’ve had the joy of caring for children ranging from infants to 12 years old. Though I’ve recently started a new career path in February, I still look for ways to stay connected to children’s growth and learning—it’s something I truly love being a part of. I’m a naturally warm-hearted, empathetic, and nurturing person who enjoys creating fun, meaningful experiences through arts and crafts, play, and connection. I don’t have children of my own yet, but I do have a sweet cat named Lucky who keeps me on my toes! Whether it’s through creative activities or simple moments of encouragement, I believe in supporting children as they grow into confident, kind individuals. I’m always excited to be part of a caring, family-centered community

Hi! I'm Payton. I am currently a high school teacher but I'm looking to be a sitter during the summer. I have experience working with children of all ages! I would love to make this summer one to remember for your kids!

Why I love being a sitter… I love being a sitter because I genuinely enjoy spending time with children and watching them grow, learn, and explore the world around them. Every child is unique, and I take pride in being a positive, caring presence in their lives. Whether it’s helping with homework, playing games, or simply being someone they can trust, I find it incredibly rewarding to support both kids and their families. What experience do I have….. I’ve cared for children of all ages, from infants to pre-teens, in both personal and professional settings. I’ve worked with multiple families over the years, managing routines like meal prep, bedtime, school pickups, and fun educational activities. I’m comfortable handling multiple children at once and always prioritize safety, patience, and kindness. What skills and training do I have? I’m certified in CPR and First Aid, which gives me the confidence to respond quickly and calmly in any emergency. I also have strong communication skills, a natural ability to connect with kids, and a dependable, organized approach to caregiving. I understand the importance of structure while also making sure children feel supported and heard. Whether it’s keeping a toddler entertained or helping with middle school homework, I’m ready to help!

Hello! My name is Sagia. I am in San Francisco right now. I am a senior in college at UNH. I have many years of babysitting experience, mostly between the ages of 1 and 12. I have also worked at the child development center (usually in the 3/4 year old classroom) and toddler classroom for the past 2 years. I am also CPR certified and fluent in Spanish. I am happy to have a phone conversation and answer any questions you may have. I have experience with pets as well :)

Hi my name is Oriah and I am very passionate about kids. I love kids of all ages but especially love babies. I have recently graduated from UNH with a degree in Human Development & Family Studies and a minor in Anthropology. I have an array of experiences working with children. I have newborn experience, and have had long term nanny positions with multiple families. I also have experience working at a preschool. I am patient, energetic and goofy. I love art and being creative as well as the outdoors. I think it is extremely important for children to develop a loving relationship with nature and the outdoors. I think the most important factor for a babysitter and a family is to have open communication. I hope you consider hiring me as your babysitter because I truly enjoy working with children. Please message me if you need help! I am currently looking for 30 hours a week this fall.
