Meet the founder
👋 Hi, I’m Ellie (and that’s Bug). I started Brooklyn Babysitters after my own experience as a NYC babysitter and as a start-up veteran. I knew there had to be a better way to find work as a sitter and to give my parent friends a few hours off from being called mom or dad. I’m passionate about making connections between sitters who love taking care of kids and parents who are just looking for a break.
