My name is Sam, and I'm excited to introduce myself as a potential caregiver for your family! With over a decade of experience in childcare, including watching infants, toddlers, and kids since the age of 12, I bring a wealth of expertise and enthusiasm to the table. I went to the University of Virginia (UVA), and graduated in 2022. One of my favorite classes during my time there was Child Psychology! Beyond babysitting, I've spent four summers volunteering in a children's hospital. I had rotations in the NICU and on the long term care floors. I also served as a camp counselor at UVA's Camp Kesem, a week long summer camp for children whose parents have cancer. These experiences have deepened my understanding of child development and honed my ability to create a safe and engaging environment for kids of all ages. In addition to childcare, I'm more than happy to lend a hand with household tasks, whether it's cooking, cleaning, or running errands. Plus, being a pet lover myself, I'm fully equipped to provide top-notch care for your furry family members, including feeding, playtime, and walks. I'm eager to learn more about your family's needs and how I can contribute to making your lives a little easier and a lot more fun! Let's connect soon to discuss further. Thanks! Sam

“Samantha was awesome! Our daughter had a great time going on a Brooklyn adventure while I was there for work! So happy we met Samantha and my daughter felt so safe and comfortable with her! ”

Dear parents, I am a 35year old nanny from Poland. I graduated from Oklahoma City University with a dual degree BA in cello performance and liberal arts and obtained my MA in Public International Law/ Human Rights degree from John Jay college. I have eight years of experience working as a nanny and I can provide multiple references upon request. Through college, I took classes in child development and had various opportunities to work as a tutor as well as a full-time and part-time babysitter to families with children of varying ages, including newborns. I am responding to your advertisement because I am a very honest, responsible, loving, and warm person, truly committed to any job I do but especially those in childcare. I have found so much joy working closely with many families and helping their children develop. I am looking to find a nice family to work with occasionally and help out as much as possible; and always with a smile. I have been told many times how much parents value my preparation for work. I always come up with different activities for the children to keep them mentally stimulated but also to ensure they're having fun with their imaginations and creativity! In a typical day, the children would participate in Arts and Crafts projects, music lessons, story-telling, and many safe and fun games. I always make my activity plans based on what children are interested in, as well as the activities that their parents prefer. I believe in the importance of routine, but as always, I put the parents concerns first. In addition, I pride myself on always helping with cooking, laundering, and cleaning. I hope I get the chance to meet with you and I thank you so much for your time and consideration. If You have any questions, please feel free to contact me. Kind Regards, Agata

Hi families, My name is Sophia, I am a 25-year-old experienced nanny with a bachelor's degree in International Business. I am offering child care, pet care, senior care, and household services. During my time in college, I discovered I am a people person and love to be around kids. This made me volunteer as a teacher and start my journey working as a nanny even though I have accumulated some experience since I was even younger. I have always cared for children of all ages, from newborns to school-age kids. I am CPR certified with years of experience as a nanny. You can trust that your kids are going to be in good hands. I am very responsible, I always show up on time, and I have special care for kids. I hope I can be considered, and we can have a conversation. I would love to hear from you soon. Best regards, Sophia

“Sophia was great with our 3 year old daughter and very punctual and responsive! ”
