Hi there! Thank you so much for taking a moment to read my profile. My name is Victoria, and I’ve been a full-time nanny for over 10 years. Caring for children is truly what I love, and I put my whole heart into creating a safe, nurturing, and happy environment for the little ones I work with. I’ve worked with all age groups, and in recent years I’ve specialized in caring for babies, from just a few months old through their transition into preschool. I’m experienced with age-appropriate routines, including sleep schedules, meal transitions, developmental activities, and establishing healthy habits. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, and I’ve also completed the Safe Sitter course. Families often describe me as warm, gentle, trustworthy, and someone kids naturally feel comfortable with. I would be happy to connect, answer any questions, and share references. Sincerely, Victoria

Hello! I work full-time as a Child Mental Health Therapist. I have a Masters degree in Social Work from Columbia University. Prior to that, I attended and graduated from Pace University where I majored in Psychology. I have a lot of experience working with children as I have been a part time nanny before. I have babysat children from newborn age to 13 years old. I have experience changing diapers, making baby formula, playing with children, reading and helping them write and just doing activities with them. I have experience doing pick ups and drop offs and also babysitting multiple children at once. I also have experience with bathtime and bed time routine and can help prepare meals if needed. I love babysitting because it has helped me become more patient with children and I love being around children because they are just full with life and happiness. I love to travel, do yoga and dance classes and read and hang out with friends! I am someone who you can always count on to be there for you and help you out!

Bianca did a great job playing/reading with our 13-month old! Our girl liked her right away. She was communicative and punctual as well.

With over a decade of experience in diverse household settings, I bring a versatile, positive approach to childcare. My background in social work and psychology, combined with extensive hands-on experience, allows me to understand and support all stages of childhood development. I'm passionate about creating nurturing environments that foster children's potential and imagination. In the kitchen, I love involving kids as my little sous chefs, preparing nutritious meals and snacks that cater to all ages and palates. My culinary expertise spans various cuisines, with a special fondness for Japanese, Chinese, Indian, and Middle Eastern flavors. Beyond childcare, I'm a certified doula and completed The Aura Institute's Pregnancy and Birth Practitioner training in 2023. This expertise allows me to support families through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum, focusing on holistic wellness and empowerment. As a certified yoga teacher, I bring a calm, balanced approach to my work, adapting to each family's unique needs and routines.

Cassia is wonderful. My daughter and I loved her company!
