Sydni B.
- 15 years paid experience

I have been blessed to work with children for nearly two decades, and my goal is always to create a nurturing environment where your kids can learn, laugh, and explore! What makes my care extra special is that I love bringing creativity into our daily routine! I'm a big crafter, and you can often find me baking yummy treats with the kids in my care or introducing them to junk journaling—a fantastic, tactile way for children to express their feelings and document their own little adventures. When we aren't creating things at home, I love to lace up our sneakers and explore the city, turning parks, museums, and neighborhood strolls into fun, hands-on learning experiences. Your child's safety and happiness are everything to me. I am fully CPR and First Aid certified, so you can head out the door knowing your little ones are in incredibly safe, capable, and in loving hands. I would love to chat, get to know your family's unique routine, and see how I can make your daily life a little easier and a lot more fun!

Sydni was our only sons sitter from birth to 4 years old. It is so clear how much Sydni cares about the children she is entrusted with. She is reliable, trustworthy and loving- the exact person you’d want to watch your children. She is so much fun but also incorporates thoughtful play- my son was always learning a new song or strengthening a new skill over their visits. My son loves Sydni so much. Its a wonderful feeling knowing you are leaving your baby with someone they love who will take care of them as you would.

Hi there! My name is Casey. I'm a sophmore at Emerson College, but I spent summers and holidays in Rhode Island. I have three years of professional babysitting experience, though I've been babysitting for family much longer. I hope to be a positive influence in your child's life and make yours just a bit easier.

We would definitely recommend Suzanne. We had her help out primarily with a one-year-old, while the parents were around but enjoying a big 40th birthday celebration. Suzanne kept the baby safe when he wanted to explore the pool and keeping him entertained so his parents could enjoy the weekend. She was patient and attentive, and really everything we needed. Thanks, Suzanne!

Hi! My name is Priscille Chatelain. I live in Rockland County, and I’m currently a full-time college student majoring in Communication Disorders. I absolutely love working with kids! 💕 I have about 6 years of childcare experience babysitting for family and friends. I’ve also been a kindergarten teacher at my church in Congers for about 12 years. On top of that, I’ve worked as a teacher aide in special education at a school in West Nyack for the past 4 years, working with children and young adults ages 5–21, including children with different disabilities. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, and I have my own car, so I’m able to get around easily. I’m experienced in keeping kids safe, entertained, and comfortable while making sure they have a fun time! My availability is Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday mornings, as well as Fridays. I’m happy to help with childcare and would love the opportunity to work with your family! Please feel free to reach out or contact me if you have any questions. I’d be happy to chat! 😊

Hi, I’m Adama! I’m a full-time finance student and CPR & First Aid certified, currently seeking part-time or occasional babysitting (evenings, weekends, date nights, or short shifts). I have 3–4 years of childcare experience, including caring for children in both home and program settings. I previously worked as a youth mentor with So Shell Butterflies (HANAC) and provided care for a family with three children ages 3–12. I’m calm, reliable, and attentive, and I enjoy keeping children engaged through play, homework help, and outdoor activities. I adapt easily to each family’s routines and prioritize creating a safe, supportive, and positive environment where kids feel comfortable and cared for. I’m best suited for families looking for a responsible, dependable sitter rather than full-time childcare. I look forward to supporting families who need flexible, quality care.

Hello!! I am a 38 year old girl, Venezolana by profession Lawyer, I speak Spanish, I am responsible, honest, kind, cheerful, funny. I have worked as a nanny while studying in my country, also help with the children of my house, both cousins and my nephew. I can help them with their tasks, take them to their activities, playdates, teach them if they are interested in learning Spanish, orient them in the organization and responsibilities in their activities, besides I can help to maintain the order, to clean. Apply to caregiver because besides I like children, I think it is necessary that there is someone who really cares about them and wants to help them, who can provide security and if necessary help them to solve their needs while their parents are busy and A plus for parents and their schedules. I started as a nurse when I started the university, besides I wanted to acquire money by my own means, it was a job that helped me not to dwell on my tasks.
