Gianna $20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Greenwood Lake, NY

Growing up in a big family, I was always surrounded by children, which sparked my passion for caregiving early on. As a teen, I began teaching swim lessons to children ages 6 and under and worked as a lifeguard for about three years. During the winter months, I served as a party hostess at a bowling alley, where I was frequently requested by both kids and parents for birthday celebrations! One of my favorite roles was working as a Disney princess at parties and events—a perfect blend of my love for children and performing. I’m a professionally trained singer, and I enjoy playing the piano, guitar, and songwriting. Most recently, I served in the U.S. Air Force as an intelligence analyst for a special operations aircraft. During my time in service, I was honored to be one of the most frequently selected National Anthem performers at the Wing level, and I continue to sing at professional sporting events. I’ve often been described as fun, caring, and extroverted, with a warm and calming presence that helps children—whether shy or spirited—feel safe and at ease around me.

$30 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Greenwood Lake, NY

My name is Keidy and you can think of me as your Swiss Army knife of child care. Not only am I backed by years of experience and multiple first aid certifications, but my love of children (especially the furry ones) as well! If you give me the opportunity I will protect and entertain your little one while you’re out being super mom/ dad!

Keidy was a pleasure to have and demonstrated excellent attention to detail while caring for my six-month-old dog and my seven-year-old niece, who can be quite a handful.

Booked by 2 families in Greenwood Lake, NY

Hello families! My name is Alyssa. I am 24 years old currently in Grad school for clinical mental health counseling. I work as a substitute teacher as well. I have been a nanny for another family for 4 years now. I am reliable, hard working, fun, energetic, patient, and loving. I love to plan fun activities for the kids and I to do together. I always go above and beyond. I have no problem organizing, doing kids laundry, tidying up, running errands or any of the household services you may need. I want to make your lives easier!

Alyssa was fantastic! She cared for our three kids (ages 2, 4, and 10) and handled the range of ages and needs with ease. She was incredibly attentive, engaged the kids in play, and kept us updated with great communication throughout the evening. We felt completely at ease knowing they were in such capable hands. We’ll definitely be booking her again for future date nights if she’s available!

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
