A little bit about me

My name is Drayton Ford, and I am an experienced babysitter with roughly ten years of experience caring for children of all ages.

Since I was fourteen, I worked for the same family in downtown Charleston- caring for their daughter (age 6), and two twin boys (age 4).

I graduated from Southern Methodist University in Dallas, TX with a B.A. in English and a concentration in International Studies. Throughout college, I babysat part-time for the same family with two very sweet little girls (age 7, newborn) in Highland Park.

After graduating college, I moved back home and landed a full-time job babysitting the cutest 6-month old until I moved to NYC in December of 2021.

I've lived in Manhattan for 3-years now, and I absolutely love kids. Some of my favorite NYC activities include: going to Central Park, visiting museums, cooking, reading, listening to music, and arts & crafts.

If you think I'd be a great fit for you and your family, please don't hesitate to reach out!

Victoria M. - Seeking Work in New York

Babysitter Available in New York, NY: Victoria M.

I love being a sitter because caring for others has always come naturally to me. I grew up helping care for my older sister, who has special needs and required 24/7 support — helping with her dressing, feeding, and bathing taught me patience and how to anticipate someone's needs before they ask.

Over the past three years, I've dog sat and potty trained a puppy, and I nannied for a two-year-old for a summer, so I'm comfortable with toddler energy and the responsibility of training a young pup. That, plus growing up helping raise my sister, taught me to stay calm, patient, and reliable no matter what a day brings.

I'm CPR and First Aid certified, regularly cook with my nieces so I'm safe and comfortable in the kitchen with kids, and speak some Spanish. Whether it's a child, a puppy, or a family member who needs care, I show up dependable, warm, and ready to help.
