Meet college nannies and sitters from Pratt Institute Main

Having worked in Youth Development for six years and as a DPS before & after care director for three years, I understand the impact of positive adult relationships with children and hope I can bring this experience and love to your family. I can promise safety & supervision, engaging age-appropriate activities, play-based learning, youth leadership & autonomy and a general philosophy of caring & respect. I am CPR/First Aid Certified with proof of 6000+ hours of public daycare experience and am also director Certified for School Age Childcare by the State of Colorado. I've nannied since 2018 and have infant, toddler, pre-k, potty training and sibling experience as well! Comfortable with medication administration and also have supported kids with disability needs. I am an artist, activist, socialist feminist, writer, foodie and bicyclist. Born & raised in Denver. Kids think I'm silly, smart, fair, caring and always there for them! I have Mondays & weekends available right now and 27 hours a week with my nanny family of 3 years.

Hi, My name is Jaya and I am a recent college graduate! I am offering childcare, pet care, and household and errand services! I have five years of experience with working with kids. I even taught kids art for a summer! I would love to meet you and your little ones! Maybe even teach them some fun art and craft classes :)

Hi there! My name is Carley, and I am a recent master's graduate in art therapy. My education has given me a strong understanding of children’s unique needs, including how temperament and developmental stages (including creative development!) can shape the way a child experiences the world. I would love to bring along age-appropriate art materials to nurture your child’s self-expression and budding curiosities! My favorite part of caregiving is engaging with children’s imagination, along with the limitless questions and humor that often arise. I also enjoy approaching childcare with creative problem-solving. On multiple occasions, I have successfully distracted a child from a screen by drawing their favorite character and inviting them to color it. I have experience caring for children from infancy through the pre-teen years. I have lived in NYC for a decade and am also comfortable commuting with children on public transportation. My approach is collaborative — I want to work within your parenting style while taking the time to understand your child’s individual personality and inner world. I bring a warm presence, a playful spirit, and a genuine enjoyment of following children’s interests and seeing where their curiosity takes them.

Hi! My name is Irine and I'm a graduate student at Pratt Institute. I'm offering child care and tutoring. I've done childcare work, as well as worked with NYC elementary and middle school students, and in creative summer camp settings. My responsibilities have included helping with homework, making snacks, arts and crafts, creating activities and more.

Hello! I'm a warm, dependable childcare professional with over 30 years of experience caring for children of all ages, including extensive experience with infants. As a former Kindergarten Teacher and Children's & Teen Librarian with the New York Public Library, I've dedicated my career to helping children learn, grow, and thrive in safe, nurturing, and engaging environments. I bring a unique blend of education, creativity, and nurturing care to every family. I create engaging, age-appropriate experiences through stories, arts and crafts, music, imaginative play, outdoor adventures, and hands-on learning that inspire curiosity and confidence. I'm patient, attentive, organized, and highly reliable, with a strong commitment to each child's safety, happiness, and development. My goal is to provide exceptional childcare and give parents peace of mind, knowing their children are genuinely cared for. I'd love to help make your child's day fun, safe, and full of smiles!
