Hi! My name is Brianna, and I’m an enthusiastic, responsible, and caring babysitter who loves working with children. I recently graduated from Kellenberg Memorial High School and will be attending the University of Michigan this August.
Over the past year, I’ve worked as a dance assistant and assistant cheer coach, where I’ve helped children build confidence, learn new skills, and have fun in a safe and encouraging environment. I’ve also spent years caring for my younger sister, giving me hands-on experience with daily routines, playtime, homework help, and keeping kids happy and engaged.
I believe every child deserves a safe, positive, and fun environment where they can learn and grow. Whether it’s helping with homework, playing games, reading stories, or assisting with bedtime routines, I’m committed to providing dependable, attentive care that gives parents peace of mind. I look forward to getting to know your family!

I am 18 however I am a great caregiver being the oldest of 4 siblings. I've been trusted to and proven I can care for children of various ages as well as dogs and cats. I have had lots of responsibility my whole childhood as well as lots of practice with housework, meal prep, etc.
Hi! I’m a toddler mom looking to get back to working
Hi! I’m Lizbeth R. I’m a mom living in Sunset Park looking to help out a family with childcare.
I grew up the oldest of three, so I’ve been taking care of kids my whole life—from my two little brothers to volunteering at elementary schools back home. I’ve worked a bunch of different retail / hospitality jobs, but once I had my son, Max, I realized I’m at my best when I'm in a nurturing role. I am currently working on getting CPR certified also!
Max is my world, and honestly, we’re a package deal right now since I don’t have family in the city to watch him. He is super social, friendly, and just loves being around other kids, so I’m looking for a situation where I can bring him along as a little playmate. Our days are usually filled with library, beach, park trips, reading, drawing and dancing!
I’m a reliable consistent and very responsible person—I'm available M-F, 8am-8pm, and can do weekends too if you need. I’m based in Sunset Park and don’t mind a commute. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your little one like family, I’d love to connect!

I am currently getting CPR certified! I’ve worked with elementary aged children every Friday when I was in high school and it was so much fun! I graduated high school in 2021 and due to personal circumstances was not able to continue my education (I am wanting to go back eventually though!)
I am Isabel, a recent college grad, originally from the suburbs of Chicago.
Until mid September, I will be in NYC and would love to babysit your child(ren)! I have been a babysitter for the past 8 years and I have even run my own childcare camp before. I have experience with kids of all ages and accommodations.
I am willing to help in whatever areas you need; cooking, cleaning, changing diapers, putting kids to bed, and more. I am kind, responsible, and have good communication skills. Please reach out if you are interested :)
I’m Assefash, I love gardening, running, cooking and baking, crocheting, and knitting! I have been a volunteer at a garden for two years and love working with children!
