looking to sit on some kitties for some scratch ;) I’m well experienced with cats, no experience with children so please do not try to hire me to look after your offspring. Only cats. No dogs, nothing against them, just don’t know where to begin taking care of a domesticated wolf. Cats are fine by me. Open to birds as well

“Perfect service as usual.”

Originally from San Francisco, CA, I have more than 10 years of babysitting experience. During college, I also worked as a camp counselor for a few summers! I have experience with a wide range of ages, from infant to pre-teen, and am also able to help with homework, cooking, and light housework. I am currently in graduate school, and I am patient, creative, and kind. In my free time I enjoy knitting and visiting museums!

“Polite, on time, responsible, would definitely use again! ”

Hi! My name is Sivan, and I'm a recent Hunter College graduate. I have 14 nieces and nephews so I have been caring for children ever since I was young. I worked as a daycare substitute from 2[removed] and as a lifeguard in the summers, and nannied 2021-22. From 2022-2023 I worked full time at a day school before returning to college full-time. I graduate in the spring and am looking for part-time nannying that may potentially become full-time post graduation. Most of my experience is with newborns to age 4, but I have cared for children ages 6-11 in the past. I don't mind light housekeeping, pet care, and cooking, and am able to do school drop-off and pickup. I believe in honesty and communication with both parents and children.

I am currently continuing my education, with an interest in healthcare policy and management. My background has helped me build strong communication and responsibility skills that I apply when working with others. I have almost two years of experience working with elementary school children through an after-school program. In this role, I helped supervise, support activities, and create a safe and positive environment for kids. I am also certified in CPR and First Aid, which allows me to respond quickly and responsibly in emergency situations. In addition, I have experience caring for younger relatives and am comfortable and willing to work with younger children. I enjoy caregiving because I like being someone others can rely on. I find it rewarding to help children feel safe, supported, and comfortable, while also making sure they have fun. Something personal about me is that I am patient, responsible, and attentive. I take my role seriously, but I also know how to connect with kids in a fun and caring way.
