Booked by 6 families in Sunnyside, NY

I am a reliable sitter committed to developing a trustworthy connection with the families I work with! I aim to create a fun environment for the children I care for while also being responsible and safe. I am CPR, First Aid, and AED trained. I am an experienced diaper changer and potty trainer, too! A very kind review left on another platform by a previous family I’ve worked with: "Before moving to New York, Chaslyn was a nanny/ babysitter for our family when my daughter was 3-5 years old. We miss her terribly! She is a phenomenal caregiver and person. She is incredibly responsible and dependable, and is also loving and playful. She was a bright light for us during the midst of the pandemic! My daughter (now almost 7) has such wonderful memories of that time because of Chaslyn. A family that finds her is truly lucky."
