I have always enjoyed babysitting and have gained plenty of experience caring for younger children in my family. I am responsible, patient, and attentive, making sure that kids are safe, happy, and engaged. I enjoy planning fun activities, helping with homework, and creating a positive environment where children feel comfortable and cared for. Babysitting has taught me to stay calm in any situation, adapt to different needs, and be a reliable helper for both kids and parents.

Hi, I'm Elektra! I'm a Biotechnology and Mathematics undergraduate with a passion for working with children and helping them thrive. With over five years of childcare experience caring for younger family members and two years of professional babysitting experience, I've learned that every child deserves a safe, supportive, and fun environment where they can be themselves.
I love staying engaged with the children I care for, whether that means helping with homework, reading stories, playing games, doing creative activities, or simply being a patient and encouraging presence throughout their day. As an author and avid reader, I enjoy fostering curiosity, imagination, and a love of learning.
Parents can count on me to be dependable, attentive, and caring. My goal is not just to provide childcare, but to be someone children feel comfortable with and someone parents can trust with confidence.

Heyy Parents, my name is Khadijatou Baragi and I am 20 years old. I started my babysitting journey in 2021, caring for kids of all ages both in the Bronx and in The Gambia. Over the years, I’ve loved creating a safe, fun, and supportive space where children can learn and grow. From helping with homework and planning creative activities to making meals and keeping up with daily routines, I enjoy being there to make life a little easier for families. This experience has taught me so much about patience, communication, and the joy of seeing kids thrive.
I am currently still attending my last year of high school and I am passionate about working with children and animals more in a professional setting :)
