Hello! My name is Lina and I am currently seeking a childcare position (30-35 hours/week) starting January 2026. For two years, I was an Au Pair, with an amazing family taking care of their two girls (ages 2 and 6) and my most recent experience was taking care of a 4 year old girl for one year. As a full-time caregiver I took care of everything related to the girls, a role that envolved in time: I have experience following sleep schedules, nap and bedtimes, changing diapers and potty training, Bottle and meal preparation, meal schedules, bathtime and taking them to classes and scheduling playdates with other nannies. I also enjoy cooking, and I’m able to prepare nutritious and balanced meals for the kids if needed. I have additional experience with various families taking care of children of all ages. I am a patient, responsible, and trustworthy person who enjoys working with children, learning about them and helping them grow. I pride myself on being committed to my work, I am punctual and reliable, creating a nurturing and safe environment for the children. I am also CPR certified and I am happy to provide references as needed. Please feel free to reach out with any questions. I look forward to the opportunity to work with a new family!

Hi! I've been a nanny and babysitter for over 14 years, caring for children from just a few weeks old up to age 12. What started as helping out a co-worker occasionally has grown into something I've done alongside my professional life for over a decade-and I genuinely love it. Most recently, I spent 7 years with one Brooklyn family, caring for their son from age 5 through 12. I've also worked with babies, toddlers, and sibling combos, including kids with autism and mood-related challenges. I'm confident juggling different needs, ages, and personalities-whether that's helping a toddler through potty training or guiding a 10-year-old through homework frustration. I'm comfortable with: -Infants, toddlers, and older children (including multiples) -Special needs (including mild autism and mood disorders) -Doctor visits -Daytime outings, pickups/drop-offs -Cooking, light cleaning, bedtime, bath time, homework help -Pet-friendly homes (I love animals!) I freelance & work remotely in sales and marketing, which gives me a flexible schedule. Whether you need regular care or backup support, my goal is to make your life easier and help your child feel safe, supported, and seen.

Hello Parents! Thank you for visiting my profile. Note: I am currently available to provide childcare on Halloween, Indigenous Peoples Day, Veterans Day, and Christmas break My name is Amanda! I am a currently a freelance pet sitter, and babysitter of 10 plus years. As a New York Native I know how to navigate through the MTA system and the neighborhoods of each borough. I am CPR/First Aid Certified and a non-smoker. I am currently available to provide care on school holidays, school breaks, weekends, and weekday evenings after 7 pm. One of my passions is caring for children, and animals. I have over 10 years of babysitter/nanny experience with children of all ages. Caring for children is a passion I will continue for as long as I can. I love getting to know children, watching them grow, and supporting their important milestones. Along with my childcare experience, I have 10 years of experience working as a pet sitter. My dream is to open a pet care, and babysitting company. Why not both! I have been caring for children since the age of 12. I started babysitting my younger brother at a young age, as I grew older I transitioned into caring for my younger cousins, and working as a babysitter/nanny. In addition, I have experience caring for children with ADHD, ADD, & Anxiety. Since 2019, I have worked with Camp Shiloh as a Counselor in Training, Mentor, and Volunteer. I was also a Camper there for several years as a kid, and it’s one of my the few places I call home. A fun fact about me, I love Harry Potter, and comic books. Some of the fun things I love to do with children are making art, building blocks, engaging in activities around the city, read books, dancing, baking, playing board games, going to parks, playing sports, playing with toys & more. In my free time I like to swim, skateboard, listen to music, learn new things, write, and ground myself in nature. Children love me as their babysitter because I’m empathetic, open minded, committed, and pretty funny. Your child’s safety is my upmost importance, and of course having fun. References can be provided. I wear masks at all times, and I carry hand sanitizer with me. Note: I am aware I have a two star review, if you would like to know more about why that review is on my page I am more than happy to explain the situation. Unfortunately, the parent never had the chance to meet nor interview me.

Its been a long pandemic, I am fully vaccinated and boosted. I am your weekend backup to help you reset after a long week of being a superhero aka parent. I began working with children at the age of 15. I was a Counselor in Training at a sleep away camp. The following two years I worked as a Camp Counselor at the same camp. I began babysitting at the age of 18. I have worked with multiple families with multiple children. I currently work at a Dance Studio as the manager and instructor. The Dance Studio mostly caters to children between the ages of 2 through 14. I am currently certified in First Aid/CPR/AED for both Adult and Pediatric. My experience makes me qualified but my personality is why I have such a great relationship with the kids. Babysitting has always been fun for me. Children are true little sponges that soak up everything. The things they say or do always manage to make my day brighter. Being younger allows me to truly enjoy my time with families. I love to go outside with kids play a little soccer, baseball, or basketball. Kids always love that I can teach them some dance moves. Although usually most kids just prefer me to read to them. I try to give every character in a book their own voice. I haven't had a bad experience sitting. The occasional meltdown is expected and I'm prepared to handle whatever is thrown mine way. References, a resume and a professional background check are available upon request.

With only 3 years of experience in child care, I feel like I’ve been doing this for a decade. I recently worked at a daycare so I have a lot of experience watching multiple children of different ages at once, as well as having experience nannying 3 foster siblings with learning and behavioral disorders. My approach with children is to always be kind and try and to see things from their perspective, while also being stern and making sure they are safe, learning something and having fun. I am adult and pediatric first aid, CPR, and AED certified (certified through Red Cross, you can verify my validity by checking my certificate ID, which is 01VNC1Q), and love doing house work like cooking, cleaning and laundry. I also walk dogs for wag! , and have 3 cats myself so good with pets and can assist with caring for them as well :)

Hello, my name is Lisa! I have worked as a career nanny in NYC for nearly 10 years and have been babysitting for over 20. My academic background is in Ancient Greek and Roman history and language, and some of my personal passions are drawing, film, gallery exhibits, and live music! I am currently available for daytime or weeknight babysitting jobs with school-aged children, including days that there is no school due to conferences, holidays, etc. I am also available to provide backup care in the event that your typical childcare is unavailable. I am seasoned and confident navigating the city with a child, whether by subway, walking, or car, and would be a valuable asset to you for camp pick-ups, taking kids to classes and appointments, or just safely transporting them home to do homework and have fun. I am skilled at implementing and maintaining age-appropriate sleep and eating schedules. I love to laugh and smile, am very energetic, motivated, friendly, and affectionate. I love going for walks and adventures, hanging out at the playground, reading books, doing art projects, working puzzles, and playing games. I am always up for a dance party! I genuinely have a blast with kids, learning about their interests and hearing their anecdotes. I am happy to help with homework if needed and am a capable cook with the right supplies and clear expectations. I am a team player and follow instruction well. I have wonderful references and a formal resume, and I hope that you will consider me for your family’s new sitter! Please note: I am currently not offering toddler care due to a disc injury.

I’ve been caring for children for as long as I can remember! Growing up with three younger siblings, two nephews, and lots of cousins, I naturally developed strong childcare skills from a young age. I’ve gained experience with kids of all ages — from infants to teens — and truly enjoy helping them learn, play, and grow in a safe and positive environment. In addition to my family experience, I’ve worked as a lifeguard for almost two years. This role has strengthened my sense of responsibility, attention to safety, and ability to stay calm under pressure. I’m dependable, patient, and passionate about making sure children are well cared for and have fun while staying safe. I am CPR and first aid certified.

Hi families! I’m Ella — a caring, fun, and warm sitter with a genuine love for working with children and a Bachelor of Science in Developmental/Child Psychology. I grew up in NYC helping care for my two younger brothers (2 and 8 years apart) and doing competitive gymnastics, which sparked my passion for child development and supporting kids as they grow.

I am CPR and First Aid certified, and also hold concussion and other sport-safety certifications. I’m patient, playful, and highly attuned to children’s needs, and I love creating a safe, encouraging environment where kids feel understood and confident. Whether it’s active play, creative activities, or supporting daily routines, I always meet children where they are and make the day fun and meaningful. I pride myself on being diligent, timely, and organized. I love to cook and clean, and truly find joy in helping families however I can.
