**ACTIVELY SEEKING GIGS - SUMMER 2026** HEY! I'm Harrison. I’m actively looking for all sorts of work over the summer and beyond— open to regular, intermittent, and anywhere in between. My schedule is fairly flexible, and I’m up for logistic-satisfying hangs, orchestrating grand adventures, date night coverage, and more. If you think I may be a good fit for your family, would love to connect! A little about me— I moved to Brooklyn ~4 years ago to manage a giant rock climbing gym. I've worked with kids a ton in climbing gyms over the last 10 years, from running summer camps to making birthday parties awesome. After leaving my role last year, I transitioned to sitting/nannying in an attempt to reclaim joy in my work life-- and it's been a blast so far. I like climbing, games (video, board, word, active, other), telling riddles + jokes (ask me about street sweepers!) building things, cooking, soccer, swimming, and riding my bike excessive distances. I went to school for film, and I used to be a producer on a PBS show-- I still love filming/editing fun videos with the kids I sit for (*movie magic*)! I'm CPR / first aid certified and generally skilled at balancing fun and safety in childcare settings. I'm a skilled driver, though I do not currently own a car. Beyond just sitting, I'm happy to support with: -homework help! I used to student teach / tutor English back in high school, and I am generally math-proficient. -meal prep! I chef 95% of my apartmenthold's meals right now, and I love to cook. -climbing! Wanna learn the ropes or just give it a try? I'm your guy. -pet care! I live with 3 cats (1 mine, 2 my girlfriend’s) and I care for dogs of friends & clients regularly. Hope to hear from you!

Hi! I'm Georgia, and I'm passionate about caring for kids and families in a thoughtful and creative way. I'm a career nanny—getting to care for children as they change and grow is an incredibly joyful and rewarding experience. I love my job! I have 2.5 years of experience as a pediatric respiratory RN at Seattle Children's Hospital, where I cared for patients ranging from newborns to 18+ years old. After moving to NYC in 2023, I worked as a night nurse for a newborn. I then cared for a 5-year-old boy for a year, and I’ve since been caring for the same child (from 18 months to 3.5 years old) for the last two years. I've also been working as a Studio Manager at a design school for the last two years, but I've decided to care for children full-time now. Quick overview: I live in Park Slope, Brooklyn, and in my free time I like to knit, walk my dog around Prospect Park, and try new coffee shops with my partner. I have a quiet and calm demeanor, but I'm an energetic caregiver. I don't overstimulate kids, but I encourage silliness, play-based exercise, and letting kids be kids. I am comfortable working with children who have medical diagnoses or needs. I think that being outside is great for our mental and physical health, so I like to bring kids outside to play in all weather (as long as it’s safe and they’re enjoying it!). I have a driver's license, but I don’t have a car and don’t feel comfortable driving such precious cargo around NYC. I view my job as a family support role and as you paying me for my time. That means that if there are multiple kids sometimes, I don't charge extra—bring on the playdates! This also means that I'm happy to run errands, help with housework (laundry, tidying, organizing), etc. Just let me know what you need! I'll be available to work 30+ hours per week starting August 31, 2026, but can interview and do part-time work before then. Please note that I prefer not to work weekends (but can absolutely do weekday evening date-night hours), and I would like to keep working for my current nanny family on Friday afternoons from 1:30–6:30 p.m. Please feel free to message me—I’d love to talk!

Hello, I’ve been babysitting children between the ages 2-13 for 5 years. I am currently an occasional babysitter for three families. I work at an afterschool program at an elementary school where I help with homework and overall just have fun with the children. Working at the after school program taught me how to handle lots of children at one time and patience. I have been a combat medic in the Army National Guard for three years and I’m a certified EMT. I’ve always loved children, working with them has taught me that they aren’t just tiny adults but they’re unique and I’m fully aware of that distinction. Being a biology major at DePaul University, I have always been interested in the medical field. It wasn’t until I worked at a summer camp for special needs children that I decided that I wanted to do medical research on those children, to improve their quality of life. I haven’t narrowed down my specific focus but all I know is that I want to help children.

🌿 About Me I am originally from the beautiful island of St. Lucia and love returning whenever I can. Being outdoors is one of my greatest joys—I enjoy gardening, planting, and making the most of fresh air. 👩‍👧 Family & Background I’m a proud parent of two children who graduated from Rutgers University (New Brunswick). My passion for creativity inspired me to pursue studies in Child Development at Penn Foster, though I had to defer my certification for personal reasons. 🎨 Childcare Approach As a childcare provider, I enjoy sharing my love of nature, creativity, and art with children. I believe in creating a fun, enriching environment where kids can learn, explore, and grow. 🍼 Experience Since 2021, I have worked as a nanny for three families, caring for children ranging in age from 5 months to 5 years old. Most recently, in 2025, I cared for a 5‑month‑old, providing attentive supervision, preparing light snacks, and assisting with light housekeeping. These experiences have strengthened my ability to adapt to different family needs while ensuring children feel safe, loved, and engaged. I look forward to meeting your family and providing reliable, caring support for your little ones!

Hi, I'm Seun! Fair warning — if you hire me, there's a good chance your kitchen may become a culinary lab. We once recreated edible dirt using crushed Oreos and gummy worms, and it was a hit. I've been working with children since high school and have loved every moment of it. I believe kids see the world with a curiosity and wonder that is truly special, and I feel privileged to play a role in their growth into their own autonomous selves. This work has taught me the rewards of being present, the value of play, and the power of creativity — lessons I carry with me every day. I believe the best moments with children happen when you lean into their interest, and I've built my entire approach around that idea. I've been working with children since high school — starting with families of teachers and growing through word-of-mouth ever since. I'm experienced with toddlers through preteens, comfortable with multiples, and tend to build long-term relationships with the families I work with. Day-to-day I can help with morning and nighttime routines, meal prep, homework, driving to activities, and keeping kids engaged with screen-free games, outdoor play, and playdates. I'm currently in medical school on a scholar's Year for research, which means I bring a clinical understanding of child safety, health, and development to every family I work with — and I have genuine flexibility in my schedule for the foreseeable year. I also volunteer as a tutor supporting students from elementary school through the college application process. I'm available to start immediately and would love to meet your family. Feel free to reach out!

With a background as an art and music teacher, preschool and toddler educator, nanny, and literacy instructor, I bring over a decade of experience supporting young children’s growth in creative, nurturing environments. I am deeply passionate about helping children reach key emotional, social, and developmental milestones through engaging, play-based learning and consistent, patient care. My approach is rooted in kindness, attentiveness, and adaptability—qualities that allow me to work smoothly with families and meet each child where they are. Whether we’re painting, reading stories, making music, or exploring nature, I love incorporating creativity into daily routines to keep kids curious, entertained, and learning. I value strong communication and always strive to create a warm, collaborative relationship with parents and caregivers.
