Find an after school nanny in Jackson Heights, NY

Hi! My name is Yaskara, and I have over 10 years of experience caring for children of all ages — from infants and toddlers to school-aged kids and teens. I truly enjoy helping children learn, play, and feel safe in a positive and loving environment. I’m known for being responsible, patient, and reliable, and I always treat every child like my own child with care and respect. I can help with homework, meal prep, bedtime routines, and light household tasks to make parents’ lives a little easier. I’m comfortable with pets, have my own transportation, and I also use public transit around the city when needed. I speak both English and Spanish, which helps me communicate easily with families and kids from different backgrounds. I’m available for part-time, after-school, weekend, or date-night babysitting anywhere in NYC. Families who’ve worked with me describe me as dependable, caring, and easy to work with.

Hi families! My name is Lulu, and I’m a Montessori-trained early childhood educator with a deep love for nurturing curiosity, creativity, and confidence in young children. I recently spent several years in London working in both hospitality and family environments before moving to New York, and I bring a warm, calm, and thoughtful approach to caregiving. Most recently I worked as a Lead Guide in a Montessori Young Toddler classroom, supporting children 15-24 months through independence-building activities, emotional development, and hands-on learning. I love creating environments where children feel safe to explore the world around them while developing their own sense of capability. Alongside childcare, I’m also a trained yoga and meditation practitioner, and I enjoy bringing elements of mindfulness, movement, and calm into the day—whether that’s through breathing exercises, stretching, or simply creating peaceful moments in a busy toddler schedule. Creativity is a big part of my life as well. I work in floristry and love incorporating nature into activities with children—flower arranging, nature walks, seasonal crafts, and sensory play inspired by the outdoors. I believe children thrive when they can engage with beauty, texture, and the natural world. I also volunteered with 240 Wellbeing, supporting community mental health initiatives, which has deepened my understanding of emotional care, empathy, and supporting both children and families through life’s ups and downs. Families often describe me as calm, attentive, and deeply engaged with children. I value building trusting relationships with both parents and little ones, and I strive to create a nurturing environment where children feel seen, respected, and joyful. I’d love to connect and see if I might be a good fit for your family!

I am currently a third grade teacher holding two Masters, one in Elementary Education and the other in Literacy. I have worked in schools, camps, volunteering, and coaching.

Hi! I’m 24 years old looking for a part-time job in babysitting, pet sitting, and assistance with errands and/or cleaning the household. I’m super dependable, proactive, friendly, and love children and pets. I have a niece who is 8 months old that I babysit on a weekly basis, and have experience teaching in a classroom with kids ages 3-5. I’m comfortable with all ages and am always open to meeting families before sitting to make sure we’re set up for success.

Hi families! My name is Faith, and I’m a proud Puerto Rican who genuinely loves working with children. I currently work as a paraprofessional in the NYC Department of Education, where I support children with autism. This experience has taught me the importance of patience, compassion, communication, consistency, and understanding that every child is unique and may learn and express themselves differently. I’m a very nurturing, hands-on, and attentive caregiver. When I’m caring for your child, they will have my full attention, I love being present, listening to them, encouraging them, and making sure they feel comfortable, valued, and heard. I’m also big on building confidence and self-esteem while encouraging positive behavior, independence, and good habits in a way that feels supportive rather than strict. One of my favorite things about working with children is using my imagination! I’m naturally creative and love coming up with fun activities that keep kids engaged, whether that’s arts and crafts, dancing, reading, imaginative play, or creating our own little adventures. I love to read myself and would be excited to help children discover books and develop a love for reading too. I’m also a very resourceful person and love cooking. I can make a great meal even when I’m working with very little, and I enjoy getting children involved in age-appropriate activities when possible. I’m warm, humble, encouraging, and naturally nurturing I may even spoil your little ones with lots of love! At the same time, I understand that being a caregiver means setting appropriate boundaries and knowing when to be the responsible adult rather than simply being their friend. Most importantly, I want children in my care to feel safe, respected, encouraged, and genuinely happy. My goal is for families to feel confident knowing their children are in caring, attentive, and capable hands.
