I’m a 17-year-old high school student who’s worked hard to build strong communication and academic skills. I've earned the New York State Seal of Biliteracy, which demonstrates my proficiency in reading, writing, and speaking English and Spanish, and I'm currently working on my Civil Literacy Seal! In school, I’ve helped friends and classmates study and spent time supporting younger students with their homework. Those experiences taught me how to be patient and be able to explain things in a way that actually makes sense. I meet people where they’re at. Everything I’ve learned so far helps me show up as someone reliable, understanding, and ready to help other students feel more confident.

I am a responsible, caring, and dependable individual who enjoys working with children and creating a safe, positive environment for them. I recently graduated from high school, where I developed strong communication, time management, and problem-solving skills. Through my experience caring for younger siblings, relatives, and family friends, I have learned how to supervise children, keep them engaged with fun and educational activities, prepare simple meals and snacks, help with bedtime routines, and ensure their safety at all times.
I am patient, attentive, and able to remain calm in different situations. I understand the importance of building trust with both children and parents by being reliable, respectful, and following family routines and instructions. I am eager to continue learning and growing as a babysitter, and I am committed to providing dependable, compassionate care that gives parents peace of mind.
Hi! My name is Noemi (no-eh-mee), and I'm approaching my senior year of high school. I'm a caring student who is involved in student life and sports. I love kids and caring for them, and I'm a flexible, engaging, and fun teenager who would love to babysit your kids! I live in the Bronx, but I'm willing to travel to different boroughs and Westchester area to babysit. I know NYC very well, as I've grown up here my whole life, so screen-free activities are never a challenge! I'm well-versed with public transportation, and I am willing to walk any and everywhere! Once my school year starts, my availability will change. However, beginning August 1, 2026, I am essentially available whenever is necessary for you (I am in my basketball season until July 27, 2027, therefore I do not want to promise unlimited availability until it is over. I am still available during this time, but practices and away-games impact when I am home/free).

I'm going into my senior year of high school, and I have and will continue to take difficult courses. I also was on track to be a competitive swimmer (I now play basketball), so I'm reliable for children safety at beaches or pools. I also have a younger niece who I've taken care of alone multiple times, who is currently six. I have worked with children creatively at my school, keeping them engaged and building relationships. I'm a big learner who is flexible and compliant.
