Find an after school nanny in Brooklyn, NY

Hi! My name is Akillah! I am a vocalist and artist. I've been in New York on and off for over 9 years. I was previously a Playdate Manager at Project Playdate and I have worked with dozens of families throughout Brooklyn and Manhattan. If hired, there is sure to be plenty of exploring, and creating and there will definitely be lots and lots of singing. I am also very active and know the basics of most sports (I can and will keep up!). My goal as a sitter is to assist parents by providing a safe and loving environment for their children to give them peace of mind from day to day. I give priority to families who are tolerant and great communicators! I provide sliding-scale services based on needs on a case-by-case basis.

Hello. My name is Fernanda, I am 33 years old, and I am originally from Sao Paulo, Brazil. I used to work as a teacher in Brazil. But I came here to the US in 2018, to study and work as well. Both my parents are teachers too. I have a degree in education and worked in the area for the past 11years(mostly with kindergarten and toddlers but I do have experience with older and younger kids). In the US, Ive been living in NYC for the past 3 years. Here, I worked as a live in nanny and took care of 2 kids(4,6yo). While in Miami (2[removed]), I took care of 3 kids. (4months, 9 months and 2 year old) - I can share all references!! I am patient, and nice w kids. I do not believe in time outs. For me, the best way to deal with kids is talking to them and make them understand what’s wrong and what we can do together to solve the problem and make things better. Also, I have experience with autistic kids, twins and triplets, new borns(bottle feeding, Sleep training, Change diapers and bath) and I used to give math private classes for 7-9yo I have a CPR certificate(in person2018/renewed online 2020) and I have an ESL course at Columbia University (NYC), along with a ADHD course from the university of NY. I like to do crafts, cooking and play board games with the kids, also spend time outside is my favorite! I think spending time with kids is always fun because every and each kid is different and we learn a lot of things together. In my free time I like to go to the park, the beach and, I also like watching movies. I have a dog and a cat and I love spending time with them - my dad is a biologist and so I was always around animals growing up! (: Good communication is the key for me to have a great work relationship I am more than happy to help with and whenever I can. Feel free to message me!

Dear Families, I’m Joycelyn, a certified NYS teacher for grades 1–6 and currently teaching 2nd grade. This is my second year teaching in the DOE. In 2023, I earned my Master’s in Teaching and Curriculum in Elementary Education from Columbia Teachers College. I’ve been working with children for over a decade—starting as a babysitter at 13 and later in daycares, preschools, elementary schools, day camps, and after-school programs. Along the way, I’ve gained experience with different teaching approaches, including Montessori and Cooperative Learning, and have also worked with children with special needs such as autism and ADHD. I grew up in Brooklyn and live in Park Slope. Outside of teaching, I enjoy traveling, cooking, arts and crafts, and reading thriller novels. I love sharing these interests with children, whether it’s through creative projects, problem-solving activities, or simply exploring new ideas together. Above all, my passion lies in creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where every child can thrive. ____________________ Booking Policies: *I kindly request the full fee for the entire scheduled duration, even if you return earlier. * I kindly request that for same-day cancellations, a fee of 25% of the booking fee be paid. Thank you in advance for your understanding, I look forward to working with your family.

Hi! I’m Schnell, a professional full-time nanny with extensive experience caring for infants and toddlers, including twins. I specialize in creating a structured, nurturing, and engaging environment while providing attentive, hands-on care. I love keeping children active and engaged throughout the day. I plan age-appropriate activities and outings such as trips to the park, playgrounds, museums, indoor play spaces, classes, and other child-friendly activities. At home, I enjoy reading books, doing arts and crafts, sensory play, music, and activities that encourage learning and development. I’m experienced with maintaining feeding and nap schedules, preparing meals and snacks, diaper changes, potty training, school drop-offs and pick-ups, getting children ready for activities, and helping them develop independence as they grow. I also handle children’s laundry, organize their toys and belongings, clean up after meals and activities, and help keep their spaces organized. I’m highly reliable, patient, organized, and comfortable caring for multiple children while balancing different schedules and needs. My goal is for children to feel safe, happy, engaged, and cared for while giving parents peace of mind. I’m currently seeking families who value attentive, high-quality care and a dependable caregiver. I’m also available for occasional evening and weekend babysitting.

Hi! I'm Shterna, and I'm 27 years old. I grew up in central Brooklyn in a big family of 11, with 28 nieces and nephews (ages 0-16) and over 100 first cousins. Being surrounded by kids my whole life, I naturally picked up childcare early on. *I will be graduating with a Bachelor's in Psychology in July of 2027 (My classes are at 7:30 PM twice a week so my school schedule does not impede my daytime/full-time availability)* I started working with kids professionally in middle school as a babysitter and summer camp counselor. After finishing school in 2018, I primarily worked as a nanny (with a brief stint in corporate) and continue to nanny today. I have lots of experience with newborns, multiples, classrooms (of infants, toddlers, and junior high-school) long shifts, overnights and weekends, children who are unwell, working in two-parent households, and transporting kids around the city. I also have experience caring for dogs and cats, hold a driver’s license, and am vaccinated. Outside of work, I’m an avid reader and Boggle player. I love putting on makeup, jump on any opportunity to hear live-music, and enjoy schmoozing with friends. As a religious Jew, my weekend availability can be limited, but I’m happy to work around it when possible. I’m semi-fluent in Hebrew (and Yiddish) and enjoy sharing my culture with anyone interested! I look forward to hearing from you and am happy to answer any questions or provide additional information and references.
