Hi, my name is Marguerita! I’m a Brooklyn nanny with over 30 years of experience in caring for children of various ages. As of recently, I earned my CNA license and became CPR certified. I’ve also expanded my child-care knowledge through participation in several nanny and speech therapy workshops over the last couple of years. I enjoy facilitating indoor and outdoor activities, providing homework help (when able), and cooking. I look forward to working with you and your kids!

$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 3 families in Rockaway Park, NY

Hi there! My name is Gigi. I'm originally from Seattle and currently live in Bushwick/Ridgewood. I am 37 and am a performance maker and CLOWN! I attended the University of San Francisco, where I graduated summa cum laude with a BA in Media Studies. I have worked with kiddos as a babysitter, tutor, and dance teacher since 2008 and from 2[removed], I worked as a long term nanny and family assistant. I then stepped away to focus on my artistic pursuits! I was a dancer for a long while and have more recently been pursuing performance art and physical theatre by way of theatre clowning (took a show to Edinburgh Fringe this past August, yay!). But I have missed working with little ones! Play, discovery, and having a healthy relationship with The Flop (failure) is important to my work as a performance artist as well as when working with kiddos. I'm learning no other work is as enriching or fulfilling than nurturing and supporting a child's security, creativity, curiosity, and individuality! So much so that I am in process of finding a Master’s program in Early Childhood Education with hopes to teach within the intersection of the performing arts and childhood development. I am committed to supporting and creating a reliable safe haven and secure base for kiddos so they may thrive, play, and learn with confidence. I myself have learned a lot and been inspired by my own inner-child healing and children’s advocacy self-study. In my own personal life, a lot of my time and energy is spent using the arts as a healing modality, as well as working through generational trauma and dysfunctional family patterns and behaviors. I find that this work has taught me to become a more empathetic, nurturing, and patient caregiver and has greatly impacted how I relate to children in particular. I am incredibly careful and intentional with my time spent around kids and hope to provide only the warmest, most supportive, and gently engaging environment. Thank you so much for your consideration and time and I look forward to supporting your family any way I can :o)

Booked by 1 family in Rockaway Park, NY

I am Cornelia , an experienced nanny with great references! I have had the opportunity to care for kids from newborns to school age for the past 16 years, and it has been a pleasure. My skills has sharpened as the years went by, and it has taught me a lot about myself. I love caring for kids because it affords me the opportunity to help contribute towards our next generation, as the first three years of a child’s life is the most crucial phase developmentally.
