Find a babysitter in Eastchester, NY

Hello! My name is Mica! I LOVE working with kids and families. I have a TON of experience and consider myself a natural caretaker with a very loving, engaged and nurturing approach. In my over 20 years of experience working as a childcare provider, I have worked for over 60 families and watched literally hundreds of children. I've worked with some families for over 10 years, watching as their family grew from one 2 year old to having four kids! From newborn to middle school, but with the majority of my experience being with newborns and infants to young elementary. My mother was a nursery school teacher and my siblings and I worked summers at their nursery school camp program, which is where I had a lot of parents asking me to babysit from there. I worked occasionally as a substitute assistant teacher at that same nursery school as well. I have a B.A. in Psychology and took classes on developmental psychology, studying attachment theory and so on. A little more about my background: I am the oldest child in my family and even amongst extended family and family friends children, so since I was a child myself I've been put in charge of watching the younger kids! But I started babysitting officially at 14. I also have young nieces and nephew who I've watched extensively as well :) I am half Japanese and grew up living in Japan at least every other summer. I speak a little Japanese and know a little Spanish as well and consider myself very culturally sensitive. I've also taken cross-cultural psychology and just have a real love of other cultures, I've worked for multiple families with immigrant parents and bilingual children :) Some personal interests are health and wellness/fitness/dance, healthy plant based cooking, volunteering, music! I sing and play a little guitar and love when the kids get excited about that as well! I drive and have my own car, I've taken children to and from every activity including doctors appointments. I've done overnights, full weekends and have traveled internationally with families. I can cook/prepare meals, help with homework where needed and do some light housekeeping as well if desired. I have experience with elderly relatives in the home with dementia, etc, and experience with pet and plant sitting. I am open and flexible! :) Feel free to ask me about anything else I may have missed! Love working with and helping families and look forward to working with yours! :) Be well and looking forward to chatting! :) -Mica

Hey families! I’m Nia, 22 years old from The Bronx. For work I am a teacher’s assistant working my way up to become a full time teacher! Working with kids gives me a sense of purpose. I love being able to give advice to a young mind who is building their way up in the world or just being a friend and someone they can enjoy their time with. I am a pretty lively and active person with lots of energy to keep everyone happy and entertained :). The ability to connect, and teach are at the core of my work along with the mental well-being of the children I work with. I hope to share these values with the families I meet in the near future. <3

Hi! I'm currently a college student majoring in psychology with aspirations for nursing school! At present, I have no idea exactly what I would like to specialize in, but I have a feeling it will ultimately be in pediatrics. I've spent most of my life working with children, be it as a general babysitter, a nanny, a peer mentor, a tutor, a lifeguard, or a camp counselor at a sleep away camp for several years. I love getting to know kids and helping them foster their interests and creativity, as well as teaching them to think out of the box! In my free time I love to go on hikes, play guitar, and most importantly I love to teach myself new things! I'm looking forward to working with you and your family.

Hi, My name is Angela and am originally from Wales in Great Britain, UK. I am now a triple citizen (USA, UK, Italy). My vacation to America back in 1981 resulted in acquiring a green card from working as a Governess/Nany for a Dr. and his family in Tenafly, NJ. The children, boy & girl were 7 & 4 years of age when took care of them. I love children and have recently returned to babysitting. My work is video production therefore have a flexible schedule as run my own business. I am divorced and have no children and have 2 nieces in New Jersey and a nephew in Wales. My hobbies are dance, music, photography and yoga, recently completing my teachers training in yoga. Here is a recent testimonial: "Angela has done a wonderful job caring for my daughters, ages 4 and 7. She picks them up from school 3 days per week in two different locations and takes them to after school activities. She has been extremely reliable and easy to communicate with, and is kind and patient with my girls. I always feel confident that they are in good hands. We are so fortunate to have her helping us out with our busy after school schedule! I would highly recommend her to other parents."
