Hello, My name is NaKea. I currently have my bachelors in psychology and I have my Associates of Applied Science in Early Childhood Education. I have been in the childcare journey since 13, working in my mother's daycare and having my first summer youth job in a daycare. in 2019, I started my journey as a lead teacher working with toddlers and continuing my journey to work with school age children. I have been a lead teacher, admin assistant, camp assistant director as well as a health director. I am currently a Paraprofessional in DOE for preschool as I continue to work on my journey to become a teacher in the DOE System. I have a well rounded knowledge of working with toddlers to preschool and some school age children due to the many belts I have had on my childcare journey. I am able to travel as I have a car. I can help with homework, picking up from extra curricular activities, assisting with nap/bed time. I can provide a safe environment and will provide open communication to provide comfortability to all parties. I’m very detailed with providing key information regarding my day with your child and have different methods and working with each child’s individual needs.
Hi! I'm Molly and I'm an actress and writer based in Brooklyn! I'm really passionate about working with kids; at 19, I co-founded a theatre camp for kids aged 9-14, in college I took a full-year course in teaching artistry, and this summer I've been working at a theatre camp for kids aged 3-6. I love making crafts, going to the park, and reading (some favorites include Frog and Toad and Anne of Green Gables). I can't wait to meet your family!
“Molly was an absolute lifesaver today! We reached out on very short notice to find childcare so my wife and I could celebrate her birthday with a run around Central Park, and Molly stepped in without hesitation. From the start, she was a complete pleasure to deal with—responsive, kind, and professional. She arrived right on time (actually early, to be exact) and stayed for the entire duration we needed. Most importantly, she was incredibly fun and engaging with our children; they had a wonderful time with her, which gave us total peace of mind while we were out. As a true New York expert, she knows the city inside and out. We could not recommend Molly more highly to any family in need of a dependable, warm, and fantastic babysitter in NYC. We would hire her again in a heartbeat!”

"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!"
