Hi! I'm Zaneta, I’m a NYC native, live music enthusiast, foodie, and the eldest of 6 (ages 1-21). I have worked with kids from 1 month to 16 years as well as those with special needs. I love traveling and am willing and able to do so with your family! Feel free to reach out to me with any interview/booking requests.

Hello, parents! My name is Sara. I am a nanny and early childhood educator with nearly 20 years of experience in private childcare. I live near Prospect Park in Brooklyn and work full time with a family on the UWS. I’ve been their nanny for the past 10 years. I studied music therapy at Berklee College of Music with an emphasis on early childhood development and child psychology. While working towards my degree, I taught in the two year old and three year old programs in a local preschool, and served as the music director at a Boston Gymboree. I am a huge believer in child-led play, respectful discipline, and nourishing the imagination. I have availability for babysitting on weekends, late nights, and occasionally when my nanny family travels. I try to keep my calendar up to date to reflect open availability. If you have any questions, please feel free to message!
“Sara was great; she communicated well, solved problems proactively, and had an ease and confidence with our 15-month-old that made for a stress-free night out. Her years of experience are evident. Would definitely rehire.”

I've worked with a family as a Nanny and now their family are moving out to a different state. I've been working in childcare for the last 8 years, in my free time I like to play sports such as soccer and swimming and also I love to go to the gym. need some extra love between homes. I'm lookingforward to finding the next family that I'll be working with long-term or part time. It's important that we both feel we're the right match for one another, so I appreciate you taking the time to read through my bio. I hope we connect soon!
