I have a tutoring background, am able to drive to and from activities (and stay/participate if needed), and always do some light cleaning of what we made a mess of that day.

Hi, my name is Yennifer! Caring for infants and toddlers is something I truly love and have years of experience with. From newborn snuggles to toddler giggles, I enjoy every stage of their growth. I believe children deserve a safe, warm, and nurturing environment where they feel loved and supported, and that’s exactly what I provide. I am patient, attentive, and caring, always making sure little ones are not only safe but also happy and comforted. Whether it’s helping with feedings, nap time, playtime, or simply giving them love and attention, I treat every child as ifthey were my own. Babysitting is more than just a job for me — it’s a passion that brings me joy, and I take pride in being dependable and trustworthy for the families I work with. I am also CPR and AED certified, so you can feel confident knowing your child is always in safe and capable hands. Families can trust me to provide not only care, but love, comfort, and peace of mind every single day.

My name is Markisha. I have experience with kids of all ages. I am a college student looking for work. My major is social work and I think this would be a great opportunity for me. My previous job I was working at a dsp agency helping kids with autism, But I've also had previous jobs where I was babysitting or nannying. I currently watch another child mon-wed in the late evening but they no longer need child care so I'm looking to find another nice family to help, whether it's permanent, occasional , or a one time thing. I would love to be of help to you. I have more references apon request I look forward to hearing from you.

Hi! I’m Kelly, originally from the San Francisco Bay Area, and I’ve been passionate about caring for kids for as long as I can remember. I earned my bachelor’s degree in Biology from Saint Mary’s College of California, completed my master’s in nursing at Columbia University, and I’m currently pursuing my doctoral degree in nursing there as well. Throughout high school and college, I built years of childcare experience, including working as a nanny for the same wonderful family with four kids during my undergraduate years. I also have experience caring for children with autism through both babysitting and my nursing training. I’m certified in CPR, BLS, ACLS, and PALS, so safety is always my top priority. I love creating fun, engaging activities for kids — whether it’s exploring outdoors, doing arts and crafts, or helping with homework — and I bring a caring, patient, and reliable approach to every family I work with.

Hello!My name is Aasha and I live on the Upper West Side. I am a graduate student at Columbia University studying creative writing (nonfiction) and literary translation (specializing in Twi, French, Spanish) in search of a full time or part time position starting as soon as possible. I only have one class on Mondays and Tuesdays afternoons. I can work mornings, afternoons Wednesday-Friday, and evenings.I was previouslya full time baby nurse and nanny to the toddler 12 hours a day. I also cook (and enjoy doing it!) and clean. I have an Honors BFA in Literature and I can commit long term or on temporary basis. I have a child led learning- Montessori approach and I encourage pretend play. I'm a lover of languages, music, the arts, and creativity! I'm a warm and gentle person but definitely firm when need be, when it comes to discipline I like to maintain what the parents have already started. I personally follow gentle and respectful parenting techniques of discipline and communication. I also cook and clean for the entire family. I can speak some Mandarin, German and I'm still learning French(A2 level)!I was also an au pair in Bordeaux). I believe I'm the perfect fit because I'm proactive, well trained and very gentle. I have the professionalism to keep up with a busy household (and keep everything clean!) and the tenderness to help raise gentle, kind and curious children. I have eleven years of experience as a nanny with children ages 0-14 years. I'm an amazing cook and can get picky eaters to eat just about anything! I can also teach your children the instruments I'm classically trained in (viola, violin, cello) . I hope to meet you soon.
