Djane M.
- 6 years paid experience

Hi Parents, My name is Djane. I have experience caring for both infants and toddlers, and I truly enjoy supporting children’s growth and development in a safe, loving, and engaging environment. I’m responsible, organized, patient, and easygoing. I bring a positive and energetic attitude to my work, and I value creating a calm, nurturing space where children feel comfortable, secure, and happy. Being around kids genuinely brings me joy. I love planning fun and age-appropriate activities, spending time outdoors, going to the park, and encouraging curiosity through play and exploration. I’m also very comfortable with pets and have no restrictions or allergies. I’m looking for a family where I can build a strong, trusting relationship and become a reliable and supportive presence in your daily routine.

Djane worked full time for us watching our 1 year old son. She was very caring and listened to what our family needed and integrated into his routine smoothly. She took him out, made playdates, and kept our house organized by putting things away and cleaning up during naptime. I'd highly recommend her.

Hi, my name is Kiara but I go by Kiwi! I'm a native New Yorker from Brooklyn and I have over 4 years of childcare experience. I worked at a daycare in Queens (Future Sunshine Daycare) part-time, and went full-time after about 6 months as the owner is also a foster mother and needed help with her 3 foster children. I started living-in 4 days a week for about a year while still working for the daycare, thus caring for 8 kids (2 infants aged 4-6 months, 1 toddler aged 3 and 5 older children aged 6-9) along with 2 other alternating workers. I worked there for 2 years alternating between part-time and full-time after the foster children moved on. This passing summer I worked as a camp counselor at a summer camp in Plymouth, Vermont. I worked there throughout the whole summer as a camp counselor monitoring kids ages 4-11. Since then I've been babysitting for different families and providing occasional coverage for workers at the daycare. I am CPR and AED certified for both adults and children, my red cross certification ID is 10VNC1Q.

Kiara (aka “Kiwi”) is wonderful! She's been helping with my son's afterschool care and has been incredibly reliable. Our toddler absolutely loves her. She brings creative activities, keeps him engaged, and brings such a positive energy into our home. We’re so grateful to have found her and couldn’t recommend her more highly!

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.

Lauren helped us out babysitting last minute when we were visiting NYC and was AMAZING! She was easy to communicate with, understanding, and most importantly, wonderful with our child. We would hire her again in a heartbeat.

Lisa W.
- 21 years paid experience
- 14 miles
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, travel, gallery exhibits, and live music. I am currently looking for summer jobs with school-aged children, including camp pickups, activity shuffling, or just having fun. I am also available to provide backup care in the event that your typical childcare is unavailable. I place an enormous emphasis on safety, both in the home and in public. I am seasoned and confident navigating the city with a child, whether by subway, walking, or taxi, I am skilled at implementing existing routines as well as developing new. I am sharp, energetic, motivated, friendly, and affectionate. I enjoy spending time with kids 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 or imaginative play. I genuinely have a blast with kids, learning about their interests and hearing their anecdotes. I am happy to help with summer homework if needed and am a capable cook with the right supplies and clear expectations. I am a team player and seek to accommodate the morals, attitudes, and values that are most important to the parents to have instilled in their children. I aim to be a true asset to any family that employs me. I am punctual, honest, respectful, and professional; I follow instruction well and take gentle criticism with ease. 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.

We were so glad to find Lisa when our regular afternoon babysitter had to be away for several months. Lisa filled in seamlessly -- picking up our six-year-old daughter from school, taking her to playdates and appointments, and bringing her home at the end of the day. Lisa was always punctual, communicative, playful, and fun to be around -- and, most of all, my daughter really enjoyed spending the time with her. She became a part of the school community of parents and caregivers, and knew all my daughter's friends. She was cheerful, thoughtful, and a wonderful caregiver. I'd be happy to act as a reference for any families looking for a great, highly responsible, and caring nanny or sitter!

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. Please note: Multiple children and/or combined pet care and other duties influence rate. Minimum & Cancellation Policy: • 3 hour shift minimum unless otherwise discussed • Cancellations within 24 hours: • Under 7 hour shifts: 3 hours minimum paid • 7–9 hour shifts: 4 hours paid • 9+ hour shifts: 50% of originally scheduled hours paid

Wendy came to babysit our 3 month old twice in a hotel room for dinner. She was great! Fantastic communication, punctual, was able to resettle our baby to sleep (no small feat!) and very trustworthy. We will definitely ask her again next time we visit.

Hello everyone , name is Jheanelle, and I’m a 27-year-old single mom to a wonderful 6-year-old daughter. I’m currently a nursing student at BMCC and have only two semesters left before graduating. I’ve always had a passion for caring for children. I started babysitting over 10 years ago by watching my nephews, nieces, and neighborhood kids, and eventually began babysitting for other families in my community. Kids naturally gravitate toward me because I’m patient, energetic, and love creating a fun, safe environment where they feel comfortable and supported. As a nursing student, I bring medical knowledge along with years of hands on childcare experience. I’m experienced caring for children of all ages, from newborns to teenagers. I’m comfortable with diaper changes, bottle feeding, potty training, bedtime routines, homework help, preparing simple meals and snacks, arts and crafts, outdoor play, and keeping children engaged while limiting screen time when requested. Your child’s safety is my top priority. I am CPR, First Aid, and BLS certified, and I remain calm and attentive in any situation. As a parent myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your child. I will always care for your little ones with the same patience, kindness, and attention that I give my own daughter. I would love the opportunity to meet your family and become someone your children look forward to seeing while giving you peace of mind whenever you’re away.

My name is Nicole. I am a dedicated, professional nanny with well over 10 years of experience providing exceptional care for children of all ages. I am currently a full time nanny to a one year old child whom I have cared for since she was a newborn, giving me extensive experience with infant routines, developmental milestones, and attentive, nurturing care. I have completed formal coursework in childcare and child development and hold current certifications in First Aid, CPR, and AED. Additionally, I have advanced childcare training and water safety certification, allowing me to maintain the highest standards of safety while supporting each child’s emotional, physical, and developmental growth. As I prepare to purchase a home in Washington DC, I am seeking an opportunity to continue working with a family that values professionalism, trust, and high quality care. I pride myself on being reliable, and deeply invested in the well being of the children entrusted to me.

We hired Nicole in March ‘25 and she currently still Nannie’s for us. She was a gem we stumbled on! We were so lucky to find her. She started taking care of our babygirl at 3 months and now she’s a toddler. Nicole is compassionate, caring, nurturing and amazing with our little girl. She has read to her from day one and has worked with us for her to achieve her milestones; from helping us to teach her to roll, to tummy time, to her drinking from an open and straw cup, Nicole has helped us without crossing boundaries. She is also in tune with our girl and learned her cues which has been helpful for our babygirl too. She’s respected our schedule and followed it as well, even with the changes we make. Nicole is not just a typical nanny, she truly cares for the intellectual development of a child and we have benefitted greatly from it. I highly recommend her. I always love the updates throughout the day and the final check in when I come home. I highly recommend her!

She is always on time, rarely ever takes days off, and is willing to take on additional tasks in the home such as meal prep and light cleaning.

I have 5-6 years of experience caring for children from infancy through age 9 and am dedicated to creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where children can learn, grow, and thrive. My background in early childhood development and education has given me a strong understanding of age-appropriate care, learning, and developmental milestones. I enjoy planning activities that encourage creativity, independence, and confidence while providing the structure and consistency children need to feel secure. I genuinely love what I do and value building positive, trusting relationships with both children and their families. My goal is always to provide dependable, compassionate care that gives parents peace of mind and helps children feel supported, happy, and loved.
