Sitter / Nanny
I grew up with 1 younger sister and brother. I was pretty much my brother's caregiver growing up, and he even called me Mommy. After high school, I started doing childcare and was lucky to develop long-term relationships with a lot of families I also did a bunch of occasional sitting with families of lots of different backgrounds. It was a fun and exciting learning experience. I have worked with children for over 20 years, from ages newborn to fifteen. I have worked with kids of all needs and abilities, and have vast experience working with neurodiverse children. I have done everything from meal prep, bath time, after-school pickup/drop off, supervising play dates, art projects, trips - you name it, I think I've pretty much done it all! I really enjoy being outdoors with children, and I love that New York City has so much to do. I love taking kids to new places and giving them fun experiences. Child growth and development are extremely interesting and important to me, and I love watching children learn and grow as they play. I especially enjoy playing a part in their learning experiences. I have a variety of interests that I enjoy sharing with children. I engage in a lot of mutual aid work and use my experiences and learnings to teach children about the importance of caring for and being cared for by others. I love to sing and try to impart some of that love to the children I work with. Family is also incredibly important to me, and I love working with children to help them understand the importance of being involved in the family structure and activities. I love animals and enjoy learning more about them with children. The biggest motivation for me to continue with childcare is that I recognize that children ARE our future - this generation could very well be the generation that saves us, and I want to take part in educating and helping that generation thrive. I also sincerely enjoy the time I spend with kids - they are much wiser and kinder than we often give them credit for!! It's so fun to see a kid's perspective on the world, and I learn just as much as they do from each interaction.

I have been babysitting for 3 years. I am in school for early childhood education. I work as Teachers Assistant. I would often babysit some of my students after work. I would feed, take them outside. Other students I would help with homework. My passion is working with kids. I have two boys that are 6&10. The families that I have worked in the past would say I am very friendly and always on time.

A professional nanny, I'm happy to do things your way, I am a mom myself. My hope is my service will be valuable to you. As a baby nurse my objective is to provide parents with the loving assistance they need and deserve. Here are many things I can do in the home. I help bathe, diaper love and stimulate each infant. I assist with establishing a feeding and sleeping schedule. I am responsible for the baby's laundry and maintenance of the baby's room. I will make the mother comfortable as possible and even help with light meal preparation. I'm knowledgeable and supportive for nursing mothers and extended family.

My experience ranges from caring for infants as young as six weeks to children of four years old . I am CPR/First Aid/AED certified.I prioritize creating a nurturing environment that encourages children to express their feelings , all while following established schedules that the parents may have . This balance not only supports the child's development but also instills confidence in parents, knowing their little ones are in capable hands.

Sitter / Nanny
Having over 10+ years experience, I have worked with families ranging from 3 months to grade school. From bottle feeding to solids, sleep training to potty training, tummy time to first steps, toddler classes to preschool. I have been there to help along the developmental stages. Being a mom of a twin and also working with twins my experience extends to multiples as well. It is important to be a calm within the storm for parents by listening, supporting, reassuring and advising where and when needed. Pls note I have a 4-hour minimum requirement for bookings.
