Media Professional Turned Early Childhood Educator | Thoughtful, Creative, and Engaging Caregiver Hi! I’m Hana—a media professional turned early childhood educator with over five years of childcare experience, from preschools to private families and social services. I’ve always been passionate about uplifting children, creating meaningful learning moments, and fostering a sense of curiosity and confidence in every child I work with. After several years at HBO, I decided to shift gears and step into the classroom. My goal? To gain firsthand experience in child development, bringing what I learn into the future of educational media and technology for good. But at my core, I simply love spending time with kids—encouraging their creativity, answering their big questions, and supporting their unique ways of learning and growing. As a sitter, I bring warmth, patience, and a deep respect for child and family.

Hi! I’m Maddie, a 22 year old recent college graduate who just started working full time as a paralegal in Manhattan. I’m looking for some extra work with flexible scheduling and really miss my many previous jobs working with children, so I figured this would be the perfect fit!

Hi, I’m Stephanie! I’m 30 years old and have been working in special education for nearly 10 years. I was born and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area and am a proud San Jose State University alum, go Spartans! Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to work with children and teens ages 4 through 19. I began my career as an ABA therapist for children with autism, which led me to roles supporting various school districts by coordinating services and assisting students with special needs. My experience spans transitional kindergarten through high school, and in my earlier years, I also worked at summer camps and after-school programs. As the oldest of four siblings, caregiving has always been a natural part of my life. A little about me is I love to travel and explore new cultures! I’m also CPR and First Aid certified and available on evenings and weekends. Feel free to reach out. I’d love to support your family!

I am one of six and have been babysitting since I could watch my little siblings and cousins. I love kids and am now an aunt to a two-year-old. I spent the past year and a half as a nanny for a one-year-old. I am a graduate of the University of Michigan and am currently based in Clinton Hill. As a nanny, I also help keep the house tidy and help out with errands. I love to create fun games and engaging activities. I have received training in CPR and first aid.

Hi! My name is Maia, and I’m a 25-year-old NYU graduate with a heartfelt commitment to nurturing fun, meaningful learning experiences for children in NYC. For the past two years, I’ve worked as a Public Programs Educator at the Children’s Museum of Manhattan, where I engage school-age children through hands-on, creative, and educational activities. I lead arts and crafts projects, early engineering activities, and movement and music exercises, always encouraging children to explore their creativity, curiosity, and confidence. This experience allows me to adapt to each child’s learning needs and interests in a playful, structured way. I’m warm, patient, energetic, and dependable, and I love finding creative ways to make everyday moments exciting—whether that means doing a craft project, heading outside for an adventure, helping with homework, or simply enjoying a favorite game together. I understand how important it is for parents to feel comfortable and confident in the person caring for their children, and I strive to be someone families can truly rely on. I would love the opportunity to get to know your family and make your children feel happy, safe, and supported!
