Hi there! It’s great to meet you, I’m Valentina, a former NYC nanny and long-time NYer who is coming out of nanny retirement while I figure out next steps in my career. I recently moved to North Jersey and am looking to meet new families in the area! I am a very caring and proactive nanny in terms of safety and avoiding tantrums, I love kids, and am so happy to have a niece and nephew now! I have an excellent track record and recent /additional references available upon request. I speak Spanish and love to do crafts and games with kids, and have extensive experience with multiple kids at once, infants and kids of all ages. I am happy to take kids on any adventures, to museums or to the pool or ferry. I also have experience teaching kids and people of all ages how to swim, if that is of interest as well! I taught swim lessons at the Peddie School in NJ for many years, and was a former lifeguard. I am looking forward to connecting and meeting your family! -Valentina

Hi! My name is Laura, and I’m a caring and responsible nanny based in New Jersey. I have experience working closely with children of different ages, and what I truly love about it is how naturally they connect to movement, creativity, and play. I bring a calm, attentive, and positive energy, creating a safe space where kids feel comfortable, seen, and engaged. I have a background in dance and body awareness, which allows me to connect with children in a more intuitive and playful way — whether it’s through movement, creative activities, or simply being present with them. I’m reliable, patient, and very mindful of each child’s unique personality and needs. I also understand how important it is for parents to feel at ease, so I always prioritize clear communication and trust.

Hi! I’m Ari! I am a high energy, patient and loving caretaker! I have 10+ years of experience working with infants, children and teens of all ages! I also have experience working with people that have been diagnosed with Autism and ADHD. I most recently worked at a local school as a teachers aide during the day for students ages 4-12. And after school as a high school boys and girls club counselor. Additionally, this past summer, I was also employed at a local day care for babies from 3mos- 3year olds in Riverdale, NY. During the school year, I can help work on school work with school aged children just as much as we can go to the park and play! I am open minded and always communicate my ideas with parents/guardians. I also have experience taking care of seniors, going to doctor’s appointments and accompanying seniors to day care facilities in the past as well as medication weekly distribution, glucose daily analysis (pinching finger to measure blood glucose levels.) I am an animal lover with experience walking, sitting and caring for animals( cats, dogs, frogs, turtles, fish, iguanas). I know how to keep a tidy home, wash laundry, cook and manage household errands as dry cleaning, booking appointments, grabbing groceries, post office errands and prepping for religious observances. Book me for your next vacation, work day or night off from the day to day hustle and bustle of NY!

Hello! I’m a dedicated, nurturing, and highly experienced childcare provider with over a decade of experience in children’s education and caregiving. My background combines classroom teaching, arts education, and at-home family care. I have a BFA and have spent over a decade working professionally on Broadway, which deeply informs my creativity, playfulness, discipline, and ability to meaningfully engage with children at their level. I have experience working with children across a wide range of ages, from 5 months to early teen years. I come from a large, close-knit family in Ohio and played an active role in helping raise my nieces and nephews, which shaped my natural caregiving instincts from an early age. My hobbies I would love to share with your children are tennis, chess, reading, writing and singing.
