Hi there!
My name is Chantal, and Iām a recent graduate of NYU Wagner currently working part-time at a nonprofit organization. Because I work remotely and have a flexible schedule, Iām available for part-time, occasional, evening, and weekend babysitting.
Working with children has always been one of the most joyful and meaningful parts of my life. I love building trusting relationships with children, encouraging their curiosity, and creating spaces where they feel safe, supported, and free to explore the world around them.
My experience includes:
⢠Nannying children from 3 months to 12 years old, with most of my experience being with children ages 2ā6. I have worked long-term nanny positions as well as one-time babysitting, school pickups, evening care, and overnight care.
⢠Working as an English-Spanish bilingual tutor in an elementary school, supporting children ages 6ā8.
⢠Serving as a sleepaway camp counselor for 5ā6-year-old girls, where I completed training in CPR, First Aid, and water safety.
I enjoy creating engaging experiences tailored to each childās interestsāwhether thatās trips to the park, museums, libraries, or neighborhood adventures, as well as imaginative play, arts and crafts, reading, and sensory activities at home. I highly value outdoor time and believe childhood should be full of joy, creativity, wonder, and opportunities to learn through play. āØ
Iām also happy to provide:
⢠Homework help and tutoring
⢠Snack and meal preparation (omnivore, vegetarian, and vegan)
⢠Pet care and assistance around the home
⢠Support with public transit and practicing age-appropriate safety skills
I am fluent in English and Spanish, conversational to near-fluent in Italian, and conversational in American Sign Language (ASL).
Iām comfortable working in homes with pets of any kind and would love the opportunity to learn more about your familyās needs. Please feel free to reach out with any questions or to set up a meeting!
I look forward to meeting you and your little ones. š«¶š¼š
āChantal regularly babysits our son after school. She's super trustworthy, communicative, and easy going. I'm usually busy at work when she's with our son out and about in manhattan, sometimes on the subway. I'm able to to focus on work and not worry about our son during this time, because he's always in great hands with Chantal!ā
