Hi! My name is Vanessa ! I have been in the nanny/ babysitting field for over 9 years now! I am most familiar with the UES but I have also done occasional jobs all over New York! Right now I am looking for one time positions or part time positions. I love to have fun taking kids to the park or just hanging out at home!
“Vanessa arrived on time, was a great boy sitter- she knew how to play with my 7 year old, help him get his energy out, & had him in bed on time & asleep before I got home, which I was grateful for. She also has a lovely demeanor, I would happily have her babysit again.”
Hello! My name is Havina. I was born and raised in NYC. I graduated from Emory University in Atlanta with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) May 2024. I have extensive experience with children of all ages. I have babysat for eight different families in NYC (age range newborn-15). Additionally, I worked in Mount Sinai's Labor & Delivery unit as a Student Nurse Intern (2023). I have volunteered with children at Mount Sinai's Kravis Children's Hospital. I have also tutored elementary and middle school children. I am conversational in Spanish. I have experience with cat-sitting and dog-sitting. I have also taken care of my elderly grandmother with dementia for the last six years. Overall, I love being with people and animals of all kinds and ages! I am currently working as an RN, but in my free time, I will continue to babysit and be flexible.
“Havina was great with our kids (ages 7 and 10). She was very professional, kind, and friendly. The kids looked forward to seeing her each day. We had no issues at all and look forward to calling her back again in the future!”
Hi! My name is Hanna, and I’ve always had a passion for working with children and I hope to be an elementary school social worker one day. I’m currently a college student studying Forensic Psychology at John Jay College, and I’ve spent the past few years supporting kids in both classroom and program settings. I’ve worked one-on-one with first graders, led small group activities in after-school programs, and even helped coordinate summer activities for children with autism and learning differences. I’m fluent in both English and Spanish, and I bring a lot of patience, energy, and creativity to every job. I’ve also taken care of toddlers in the past and love helping little ones learn, play, and feel safe. Whether it’s helping with homework, playing games, or simply keeping things calm and fun at home, I’m here to support your family however I can!
“She was professional, showed up on time, and followed all the instructions I had. My kid warmed up to her really quickly and she even got my kiddo to sleep on her nap! ”
Hello there! A little bit about me 😊 I’m currently a student studying Communication Sciences and Disorders with the goal of becoming a Speech Therapist for kiddos! I have 4 going on 5 years of experience working with children in special education, ABA therapy, early intervention, private nannying, and childcare settings. Most of my experience comes from working at a school in Tribeca for children with autism and an early intervention center. That is where I learned the most and did the most growing with ages 2-12. I love keeping childcare fun, playful, and lighthearted, while also being comfortable working with a variety of behaviors, developmental needs, and communication styles. I bring patience, structure, and an educated approach while still making sure kids can be kids! I’m currently looking for a part-time position of around 20 hours a week or less. I’m especially experienced with special needs children, but am just as comfortable with typically developing children. Please reach out if we sound like a good fit! 😊
Hello! My name is Lilly! I have my Bachelors in Early Childhood and Childhood Education and am currently pursuing my Masters in Childhood Special Education. I also have experience from working as an assistant at an Child Care Center with children ranging from 5-12 years old and diaper changing from my younger cousins. I have a passion for working with children, want to help them learn new things, and can implement age- appropriate activities. I am very patient, punctual, compassionate, attentive, responsible, and prioritize safety and comfort. I enjoy reading, arts & crafts, and games! I am available for child care services & light household services. ****I would like to find jobs that are in the NYC area as I do not have a car and rely on public transportation. ***** I grew up with a chihuahua and currently have 2 cats. I am comfortable with both dogs and cats and can assist with feeding and playtime if needed. If you have any questions, please reach out. I look forward to hearing from you! Thank you!
“Lilly was extremely professional and reliable. My 11 year old son warmed up to her, so did our two small dogs! She was very diligent. She made sure to listen to our expectations and delivered perfect care. I would recommend her services. ”
