Francesca Snyder

Francesca Snyder
New York, NY

My name is Frankie, and I’m a rising sophomore at NYU studying Vocal Performance! I have prior experience babysitting, but mostly, due to COVID-19, I would support parents working from home and watching over their children so they could get work done in the home. I have worked with children aged 2 to 17 as a volunteer at my hometown’s library, a volunteer for a musical theatre summer camp for children, and as an employee at Albright College's Total Experience Learning Summer Program. Additionally, I planned art and music-based programming and events for toddlers and elementary-aged children while I was in high school because I was the President of National Art Honor Society, President of Drama Club, and a prominent member of my school’s music program.

I’m extremely passionate about children’s education and programming, and I approach each child as an individual who I get to help grow and teach.

Dear Amazing Families,

My name is Yvonne , I am American Caribbean, I am writing to introduce myself as a reliable and experienced babysitter who is excited about the opportunity to work with your family. I have been caring for children for over 15 years as a nanny, babysitter, newborn care specialist and have experience with children ranging from infants to teenagers.

Currently, I am available, Monday to Friday. Weekends by a discussion first and am flexible for occasional babysitting needs beyond those hours. During babysitting sessions, I am happy to assist with meal preparation, bedtime routines, and light housekeeping.

If you would like, I can provide references from other families I've worked with. I look forward to the opportunity to discuss how I can support your family and ensure a safe and fun environment for your children.

Why hire a babysitter

In this section we look at what services babysitters typically provide, how they're different to other carers, and the many benefits your family can enjoy when hiring a babysitter.

When to hire a babysitter

How to find a good babysitter

Often the biggest challenge with hiring a babysitter is finding good candidates, to begin with. In this section, we reveal many secrets that you can use to attract the best local babysitters, we also explore alternatives to hiring babysitters that you may not have considered.

How to vet babysitting candidates
