I am the mother of a teenaged boy, and I absolutely love being a mother. I have lots of experience with children of all ages. I currently work as a nursery school teacher on the Upper East Side. I am very compassionate, patient and energetic.

Hello, my name is Iva; I am a 25-year-old NYU student (History/Econ Major), born in Zagreb, Croatia, and my favorite color is blue. I have been babysitting for the past three years, not including taking care of my sister, who is 10 years my junior. I have extensive experience with boys and girls ages 4 and up, and am competent with after school pickups and transport to activities, homework help, cooking, light housekeeping, and house sitting. Areas of homework help I am most comfortable with are History and English. I am currently looking for part-time, after-school work; I am flexible with travel, hourly rates, and date-night babysitting.

Experienced infant specialist with 16 years of childcare experience caring for children from as young as 3 weeks old through adolescence. I specialize in newborn and infant care, providing calm, attentive, and nurturing support while helping families maintain consistent routines and a peaceful environment. I’m especially well-suited for families seeking reliable infant care, evening/date-night coverage, or overnight support when children are asleep. I hold dual Bachelor’s degrees from Brandeis University in Biology and Health: Science, Society and Policy. My background includes working as a Teaching Assistant at the Lemberg Children’s Center, serving as a Youth Counselor with the Police Athletic League in Brooklyn, and teaching violin to children of all ages. I currently work part-time as a middle school teacher and professional violinist. Families describe me as patient, dependable, warm, and highly attentive. I genuinely love supporting children in their earliest developmental stages and creating a safe, comforting environment where both children and parents feel at ease.

Hi there! Thanks for stopping by :) I’m Jessica, a seasoned childcare provider with 15+ years of experience caring for infants through school-age children across NYC and New Jersey. I’m CPR certified for infants and children, trained in child development, and very familiar with the realities of parenting—from separation anxiety and bedtime routines to big feelings. I’m a graduate of the Fashion Institute of Technology and previously studied fashion design at Pratt Institute. Creativity is central to who I am; I’m always drawing, sewing, or painting. I’ve taught sewing to 3rd–5th graders in after-school programs and led group childcare events through Project Playdate, so I’m comfortable caring for multiple children at once. My experience includes infants and toddlers, children with food allergies, and those with special needs (including Autism and Cerebral Palsy). I’m patient, kind, and respectful of each family’s routines and parenting style. I strive to create a calm, safe, and imaginative environment where children feel seen, supported, and cared for. I look forward to meeting you and your little ones.
