I Love Being a Babysitter in New York

December 3rd, 2008 by admin

I absolutely love living in the Big Apple. Having grown up in a rather small town in the middle of South Dakota, I was not ready for all the crazy excitement and fast-paced lifestyle of a New Yorker, but I got the hang of it after a few months. I came to this bustling city because I wanted to be babysitter in New York. What a fantastic experience it has been so far! I have hit all the main tourist attractions but I still need to see most of the museums and Broadway shows. The best part, however, is that I can actually afford all these outings because the babysitter pay out here in New York is much better than the pay back at home!

From day one, I learned that a babysitter in New York needs to figure out how to deal with the over-worked parents, cranky children, and strange eating restrictions these families have. I refused to be a live-in nanny, which I think was a good decision on my part, but I am always in need because every family’s nanny needs at least one night off a week. That’s the night I go on duty. This city is so amazing and I am glad I took a chance and moved here. I know I will not be taking babysitting jobs in New York forever but I am enjoying my time here so far!
