Find a babysitter in Jamaica, NY

High school teacher who previously worked as a life guard and swim teacher to children ages 3-15. I really enjoy connecting with children of all ages, whether it's hearing about the book they love, the new slang they're using or playing a board game with inventive rules.

Hi there! My name is Imani. I’ve worked in childcare for about five years and am currently studying Early Childhood Development to further my expertise. I’m also a summer camp counselor, which has taught me how to keep kids engaged and active. I’m known for my sweet, patient nature and my drive to successfully navigate any challenge that comes my way.

As a dedicated nanny, my primary goal is to create a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for children. I am actively working with 2 babies but I have several years of experience working with many age groups, which has equipped me with the skills to handle their diverse needs, from infants to older children. I am comfortable working in homes with pets. My commitment extends beyond basic childcare; I am eager to assist with household tasks and be a helpful part of the family. I pride myself on preparing healthy meals, organizing fun and educational activities, and assisting with homework to support their development. Safety is my top priority, and I hold CPR and First Aid certifications to ensure I can respond effectively in emergencies. I thrive on building strong relationships with both the children and their families, fostering creativity, and encouraging a love for learning.

Experienced and reliable 21-year-old babysitter with over five years of hands-on childcare experience. From a young age, I’ve been the go-to babysitter for family, friends, and neighbors, caring for children of all ages. I officially started babysitting at 16 and have since worked extensively with pre-school and elementary-aged kids, providing attentive, engaging, and nurturing care. Whether helping with homework, organizing fun activities, or ensuring a smooth bedtime routine, I strive to create a safe and enjoyable environment for every child I look after. Currently a senior at Adelphi University, I will be starting dental school at the end of the summer. I have my own car for reliable transportation, making pick-ups, drop-offs, and last-minute scheduling easy. I’m fluent in both English and Russian and also comfortable around pets, as I have two dogs of my own. My experience, patience, and genuine love for working with children make me a dependable choice for any family in need of a caring and responsible babysitter.

Love cats! I can take care of multiple cats including ones with special needs. Happy to do overnight pet sitting if your cats need someone around more than a few minutes a day.
