Find an after school nanny in Rego Park, NY

Being brought up in a large family, I have always felt a deep relevance to the world of childhood. Being around and working with many ages I discovered a deep connection to and strong interest in the earliest stages of human life. I find it a profound privilege to provide the gentle, attentive presence that babies need to feel safe and secure as they begin to explore their world. In my most recent role as a 1:4 infant caregiver, I had the honor of caring for a group of four babies starting when they were just seven weeks old. Being a consistent part of their first year allowed me to bond deeply with each child and support their unique developmental leaps with patience and compassion. I believe that every child deserves to be seen, heard, and nurtured with individualized care that respects their pace, personality, and at home lifestyle. I am now transitioning primarily to in-home care to offer families a more personal, dedicated experience. Whether you are looking for a long-term addition to your family's routine or simply need a reliable hand for one-time sitting, my goal is always the same: to provide a nurturing environment where your child feels completely loved and supported. I am excited to continue contributing to the beautiful early stages of life in the comfort of the child’s home, where they can grow, feel secure, and thrive.

Hi - My name is Shania and I'm currently a paraprofessional for the Board of Education working with special needs children from ages 2-10 years old. I am offering child care, senior care, and household services. I love being a babysitter and have been watching newborns, infants, toddlers, and kids (including twins!) since I was 18 years old. My responsibilities have included driving to/from school, crafts, tutoring, and even dance lessons. I also worked as a household assistant as well as working for the board of Education and can cook, clean, and run errands. I have been a caretaker for my own grandparents and am comfortable with senior care. I can cook, drive to appointments, or do other tasks. I’m not allergic to any animals and comfortable to work with them.

I have experience babysitting for multiple families, caring for children of different ages, and supporting their daily routines in a safe, fun, and structured environment. I'm responsible, patient, and energetic, and I enjoy creating activities that keep kids engaged while also making sure they feel supported and comfortable! In addition to childcare, I was a peer mentor in college, where I helped guide and support fellow students academically and personally. That experience strengthened my communication skills and the ability to connect with others in a supportive and understanding way. I have a BFA in Musical Theater as well, so anything music or performing arts related I love to share/teach children. I also have experience caring for pets, including feeding, walking, and making sure they are well looked after. Overall, I'm dependable, caring, and I take pride in being someone families can trust!

Some qualities that I have that make me a truly great caregiver are that I’m empathetic, patient, reliable, and I have a calm, steady presence about me that helps people feel safe and supported. I am a great listener, I pay attention to others’ needs, and naturally balance compassion with respect for people’s independence and dignity. I have vast experience working with children of all ages from infants to preschoolers to 3rd graders as well as children on the autism spectrum. My talent is that I make people feel safe, seen, & supported.

Hi! I’m Silvana — a caring and reliable babysitter with experience working with children from 2 months to 8 years old. I worked at Little Angels Daycare caring for infants as young as 2 months old, and also worked in the infant and toddler rooms at Bright Horizons. I study psychology in college and love creating fun, engaging, and safe environments for kids through music, movement, games, sensory play, and simple sign language. I also have a dance background and love hip hop, jazz, Afro dance, and salsa, so I naturally bring a lot of positive energy and creativity when working with children. I’m currently looking to grow my caregiver experience more closely with one family long term and would love the opportunity to support yours
