Charlotte has been watching my toddler for almost a year and we couldn’t be happier to have her! My daughter gets so excited to see her and feels very comfortable with her. I also am happy with her work. She cleans up before she leaves, follows schedules, and ensures that my toddler is safe. Definitely would recommend to anyone that’s looking for a good sitter who cares about children!

Yaya supported our family for a year as both a nanny and driver for our 2-year-old son. She was incredibly responsible, communicative, dependable, and caring. We always felt confident knowing our son was in her care. We are very grateful for the time she and her son spent with us and would highly recommend Yaya to any family looking for a trustworthy and caring nanny.

Catherine G., Babysitter in Averill Park, NY 12018 with 7 years of paid experience

Hi! I am a recent graduate of Albany College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences and will be beginning medical school later this summer! Babysitting was my first job as a pre-teen and actually began my pursuit of medicine, I find a lot of value in taking care of others! I work as an EMT and have had my license for nearly 5 years. In the past, I have also worked as a lifeguard/swim instructor, and more recently, a Medical Assistant in a Pediatric Primary Care office. I love working with children and am great at meeting them at their level! I am very patient, calm, and love to have fun too! I play both soccer and track at my college so rest assured I can keep up with even the most active kids!

Melissa C., Babysitter in Averill Park, NY 12018 with 30 years of paid experience

My name is Melissa and I have over 30 years experience caring for children of all ages (newborn - 14 years). I have had the privilege to care for children in private homes as well as in daycare and after school settings. I truly enjoy creating fun and creative activities that encourage individuality and imagination. I am also a licensed veterinary technician in several states and have been first aid, CPR, and MAT certified. I do not have a background check on here since I am licensed in NYS. This allows you to look me up on the NYS Office of Professions which is updated regularly and will show any misconduct or criminal activities if I were to have them. I currently have the pleasure of helping to care for my 1yr old grandson and my 2yr old autistic nephew.

Anya S., Babysitter in Averill Park, NY 12018 with 10 years of paid experience

Hello there! My name is Anya and I am here to help lighten your load, helping to make your busy schedule a little easier. I'm energetic, responsible, reliable, kind, compassionate, and caring. I have always loved and enjoyed working with children. My experience starts when I was 13 watching not only my niece but my mom’s friends kids. When I turned 17 I started working for the YMCA at an after school program, I worked with the YMCA for 2 years till they unfortunately closed due to the pandemic. During the pandemic I went to school for childhood education. I worked as teaching assistant which included my 7 years of working experience with children. I most recently was a nanny for a family who had an 8 month old and was with them for almost two years. It is something I love to do and am passionate about. Not only do I love caring for children, but I also love helping with things that need to be done around the house. I am willing to help out in anyway I can to make things easier for you and your family.

Isabella V., Babysitter in Averill Park, NY 12018 with 6 years of paid experience

Hi there! My name is Bella. I have been working with kids since I was 15, so about 6 years. I have spent months working as an academic and art teacher, as well as a summer camp counselor. I have my own car, plenty of gas and a car seat if needed! I have worked as a nanny for 3 years, and baby sat all ages across all the time I have been certified for babysitting. My specialty lies in numerous children, but I also love having 1 on 1 time! Again, I have extensive experience with all ages, from infant all the way up until High School! Throughout my years of working with children, I have received over 200 hours of explicit child development training. This includes: - solving conflict between kids - bullying prevention/handling - calm down methods - child safety and monitoring - developmental activities and play - working with kiddos with special needs …and much much more. I am an artist by trade, as well as a student at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute studying Computer Science and Cognitive Science, with a minor in Business. I have been a tutor and teacher for a few years, so homework is my specialty. I love teaching kids skills as well as art. I am very comfortable with pets, and driving. I am also CPR certified and first aid certified, as well as an ex lifeguard. On top of that, I have a mental health first aide certification for all ages. Working with kids is my true passion, and I look forward to meeting you and your family!

Bella is a warm, attentive, reliable, and fun babysitter! She has an arsenal of games and songs up her sleeve and always has something creative to contribute to the day. My 3-year-old daughter absolutely adores her and frequently asks for her when she’s not sitting! I highly recommend her :)

Montana W., Babysitter in Averill Park, NY 12018 with 15 years of paid experience

Hi! I'm Montana (they/them). I started babysitting when I was very young and have worked with kids of all ages for over 15 years now, including newborns and toddlers. Spending time, making friends, and learning with babies and kids may be one of the things that gives me deep fulfillment. I’ve spent the last year nannying for a baby from 5 months to 20 months and it’s been such a fun and profound experience getting to support and explore this world with him as he grows into the incredibly smart, sweet, silly, inquisitive person he’s becoming. I love creating space that’s safe, attuned, consent-centered, creative, and fun to play and learn in. I do laundry, clean, cook, run errands, homework help, and go on outings. Besides working with kids I’m also a trained consent-educator, as well as a Massage Therapist and Craniosacral Therapist. I’m needing a bit more flexibility in my schedule as I build these practices but do want to keep kiddos & babes in life and would love to support your family!

I cannot recommend Montana enough! Montana worked for my family as a nanny starting in May 2022 until May 2026 (when they moved from Los Angeles to New York City). They started watching our first child at 5 months old. I was incredibly nervous at the time about letting someone watch him outside of my husband and I, but that all melted away with Montana’s calm, grounded presence and expert childcare skills. They easily adapted to his shifting schedule, cared for him, playing, reading, diapering, handling naps and feeding, and as he got older, going on outings to the playground using the car and carseat. He had severe food allergies and Montana was incredibly responsible in keeping him safe and helping with food prep. Montana also helped around the house with cooking, laundry, and other light housekeeping (always much appreciated). Communication with Montana was always good and clear, and they easily took feedback. Also they were proactive in helping solve issues as they came up (like baby going through sleep regressions, and as he got older, the challenges of toddlerhood), and was always reliable and impressively punctual. When our 2nd child was born in November 2024, Montana would watch both kids and I was always impressed at their calm demeanor as they balanced the two of them. I recommend Montana wholeheartedly and feel very lucky they're in our lives, and can confidently say any family would benefit from their nannying!

I’ve been caring for children for many years, starting with my younger family members, including my nieces and nephews. I later gained professional experience working in a daycare, after-school program, and summer camp, where I cared for children of different ages. I’m patient, dependable, and love creating a safe, fun, and engaging environment for children. I also have experience caring for infants and understand the importance of following each family’s routine and preferences. I’m very comfortable with pets as well! I currently work with dogs and have three of my own, so I’m happy to care for families with pets. If it works better for your family’s needs, babysitting at my apartment may also be an option. I look forward to getting to know your family!
