Find an emergency babysitter in Woodside, NY

Hi! I’m Marley — a junior at NYU studying Early Childhood and Special Education. I have experience caring for children from infancy through elementary school, with a background in both educational and recreational settings. This past summer, I worked as a nanny caring for a 15-month-old in the mornings and two boys (ages 4 and 5) in the afternoons. I planned engaging daily activities, incorporated vocabulary and reading enrichment, and organized outings to support social, cognitive, and physical development. I also safely transported the children to and from activities. Previously, I worked as a substitute teacher at the Burlington YMCA, supporting classrooms for children ages 8 weeks to 5 years, and as a camp counselor at an all-outdoor adventure camp, encouraging kids to explore, try new things, and build confidence. I’m committed to creating a safe, supportive environment where children can learn, grow, and have fun. I bring energy, patience, and creativity to every day, tailoring activities to each child’s needs and interests.

As a dedicated nanny, my primary goal is to create a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for children. I am actively working with 2 babies but I have several years of experience working with many age groups, which has equipped me with the skills to handle their diverse needs, from infants to older children. I am comfortable working in homes with pets. My commitment extends beyond basic childcare; I am eager to assist with household tasks and be a helpful part of the family. I pride myself on preparing healthy meals, organizing fun and educational activities, and assisting with homework to support their development. Safety is my top priority, and I hold CPR and First Aid certifications to ensure I can respond effectively in emergencies. I thrive on building strong relationships with both the children and their families, fostering creativity, and encouraging a love for learning.

Hi everyone! My name is Sherkira. I’m 21 years old, and I truly love working with children. I currently work at a private childcare center, where I’ve been for 3 years. During that time, I’ve cared for children ranging from 3 months to 4 years old. I grew up with many siblings and often took on the responsibility of helping care for them, so childcare has always come naturally to me. There’s nothing I’m more passionate about than watching children learn, grow, and discover new things. I’m CPR certified, and I take pride in keeping a clean and tidy environment—especially after a fun, messy activity! My schedule is Monday through Friday, starting at 7:30 PM and ending whenever I’m needed.

Hi! I’m currently an Occupational Therapy (OT) student with a passion for helping children learn, grow, and thrive. I worked in a school supporting children with special needs, which has given me valuable experience creating safe, engaging, and supportive environments while adapting to each child’s unique needs and personality. I’m patient, dependable, and creative, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids. I love incorporating arts and crafts, imaginative play, outdoor activities, and age-appropriate learning into the time we spend together. My background in OT has also strengthened my understanding of child development, sensory needs, and positive communication. Outside of work and school, I love art and animals, and I’m always happy to help with pet care if needed. I’m also comfortable assisting with light household tasks, such as tidying up after activities, preparing simple meals and snacks, and helping keep your home organized while caring for your children. My goal is to provide families with reliable, compassionate care while making sure children feel safe, supported, and have fun. I look forward to getting to know your family!
