Find an after school nanny in Ridgewood, NY

Hi! My name is Francie and I just graduated from Williams College. I am a babysitter and tutor, and am also willing to work with animals. I have experience in babysitting elementary and toddler-aged children, but am excited about working with other ages. I also have experience tutoring my younger brother, who had learning difficulties, so am comfortable working with kids who might have difficult relationships with school work. In the past I've dropped kids off and picked them up, done crafts with them, taken them to the playground, read with them, made up dances, and otherwise tried to have them to creative activities. Please let me know if I can give you any more info!

I have been in childcare for over 30 years. At 16 years old I started working in nurseries (daycare) in England, and later returned to college to take a diploma (degree) in childcare and education. I specialized in caring for babies, and did my extra credit classes and work experience in neonatal care and handling premature infants. During my college years I worked as an overnight nanny for an infant as well as in an after school club (program) with 5-11 year olds. Since then I have worked as a nanny for two different families, a neonatal infant nurse in a busy maternity hospital, and also as a classroom assistant in schools and nurseries (ages 3-5 years). In the USA I have spent two years as a toddler room helper, a teacher to toddlers and pre-k in a daycare, and then went on to run my own home daycare/childcare business for 6 years caring for children aged from six weeks to six years. I prefer being a nanny as it's a different pace in my working life, having fewer children at a time (one or two rather than six) who can benefit from my sills and experience. I rarely if ever find caring for any child challenging. Nothing phases me or is too much to handle; diapers, toilet training, and body fluids don't bother me at all. I am looking to work for for a family who are as open and accepting as I am towards others, a family who will embrace the prospect of a male nanny as a positive influence in their child's life. I believe that every child should be cherished, appreciated, feel valued and shown that their feelings matter. I have current State/Police/FBI clearance checks and first aid certificate. I am clean living (do not smoke, drink, or use any illegal substances), house trained, a good cook, and have total respect for your home, property, and your children. My availability changes, the calendar may not accurately reflect this so dont be afraid to contact me!

Hi, my name is Arianna! I’m 19 years old with over 3 years of experience providing safe, nurturing, and energetic care for children from infants to pre-teens.

From 2009 onward, I volunteered in different educational capacities to gain experience. In the summers of 2012 and 2013, I landed my first job working for the City of Fremont as a recreational aide. I planned the curriculum, led activities, and supervised the children. Later, I worked at Children's Fairyland for almost two years. In October 2014, I began working at Hortensia's Way preschool, where I stayed for almost seven years. I cared for infants from four months to children up to eight years of age. I enjoyed working at a preschool because I had the opportunity to work with a diverse group of children, and I loved seeing them learn and grow. As a result of my years as a preschool assistant, I have experience in developing and implementing curricula, supervising and teaching children, as well as potty training and facilitating general play. I have nine early childhood education units, and I have worked for four years as a nanny, caring for infants who have grown into toddlers. I have assisted with tummy time, solids, engagement, and routines, as well as creating play spaces!
