Hello there! A little bit about me 😊 I’m currently a student studying Communication Sciences and Disorders with the goal of becoming a Speech Therapist for kiddos! I have 4 going on 5 years of experience working with children in special education, ABA therapy, early intervention, private nannying, and childcare settings. Most of my experience comes from working at a school in Tribeca for children with autism and an early intervention center. That is where I learned the most and did the most growing with ages 2-12. I love keeping childcare fun, playful, and lighthearted, while also being comfortable working with a variety of behaviors, developmental needs, and communication styles. I bring patience, structure, and an educated approach while still making sure kids can be kids! I’m currently looking for a part-time position of around 20 hours a week or less. I’m especially experienced with special needs children, but am just as comfortable with typically developing children. Please reach out if we sound like a good fit! 😊

Hi, My name is Brianna. I live in Queens, and I am an educator on the Upper East Side. I have my Master's of Science in Teaching Early Childhood Education from Pace University. I have been teaching for 10 years; I currently work with older 2s, but have worked with 3s, Pre-K, and Kindergarten. I have extensive babysitting experience with a range of ages: from infants to middle schoolers. I enjoy taking kids to the playground, baking or cooking fun treats, and doing arts and crafts! In my spare time, I love staying active by doing yoga, cooking, and listening to music. Looking forward to talking with you!

Hi all! Iam a very empathetic and trustworthy caregiver who is extremely reliable. Iam very respectful and have a heart of gold! Personally, I take a child-centered approach. Although I’m happy to introduce fun activities and make suggestions, I’m even more interested in listening to what children are into and encouraging them to explore. This means that I’m willing to allow them to, for instance, climb on playground equipment that they may not be familiar with, which means I will shadow them to prevent any falls. Most importantly, It is important to me that you as the parent, and I as the caretaker are on the same page about how you want your children to be taken care of. I also assist with H.W, bedtime routine, meal prep, medication administration, hygiene care, all while under DIRECT supervision. For my infants, Iam experienced in warming and unfreezing breast milk, burping, Iam able to tell if a child is hungry or tired, diaper changing and how to properly hold a little one, especially before their neck is strong. One of my FAVORITE moments while babysitting, is when one of my kiddos who is on the spectrum, after YEARS of turning down anything that wasn’t a chicken nugget or pizza, FINALLY took his first few bites of a different food with ME! I can’t explain how extremely happy i felt. After YEARS of patience, understanding, determination and emotional support, we hit a goal TOGETHER! I can go on and on about my rewarding experience as a caretaker, but I’m not sure if I’ll ever stop! I look forward to working with you and your family!

I’m passionate about working with children and connect easily with kids of all ages. Fluent in English, Arabic, and French, I enjoy gardening, cooking, and outdoor activities, creating fun, enriching experiences for young ones.
