Greetings! Mature, reliable, caring, and attentive Nursing professional available with own transportation. Perfect for Out-of-town Guests! I've been a Pediatric Nurse for over 35 years, in several major NYC children's Hospitals, specializing in Infant/Toddler, NICU, and PICU. My latest degree is PhD-Nursing. I am fingerprinted and background checked because I volunteer with foster children. I'm smoke-free, pet -free (but love pets), perfume-free, and have had my COVID, Tdap, flu & pneumococcal shots, so your child with respiratory sensitivities will be safe with me. Now a Full-Time Tenured Pediatric Nursing professor, I really enjoy being around healthy children, and am also available to sit your ill or medically fragile children. I not only know Pediatric CPR, but have successfully performed it multiple times in the ICU. I have RN and PNP licenses in NY and NJ. Having worked at a major Jewish hospital, I also learned how to keep your household Kosher, if needed. I love babysitting, and have always enjoyed caring for children in their own home. My friends have 10 kids and I'm the only person they will leave them all with - especially for the weekend! And yes - happy to show you an ID, a valid COVID Excelsior Pass, and BLS, First Aid & PALS (Pediatric Advanced Life Support) cards (all valid until July 2023).Your kids are SAFE with me! Education - PhD - Nursing- CUNY Graduate Center, Pediatric NP - Adelphi University, MS Nursing - College of New Rochelle, BS Nursing - University of Connecticut (Go Huskies!!) During the academic year, my primary daytime commitment is to my students, so I am NOT usually available during the day (unless I have specifically applied for your job.)

Susan helped us with puppy sitting during some of my work travel. She was professional and flexible with scheduling and kind and patient with our brand new pup, who is still very young and needy. We would recommend her to anyone and would definitely use her again.

Hello! I'm 36, a flight attendant, and just recently moved here from California. I spent the past 4 years living in LA and worked as a nanny there, and before that I was living in Spain working as an English teacher and nanny. I have been nannying/babysitting since I was 12. I have a lot of experience with children from infants to teens, and I am CPR and First Aid certified, and I’ve worked with children with all abilities. I'm really friendly, interactive and I love kids. I prefer engaging with the children as opposed to letting them sit and watch movies or play video games. I'm responsible, reliable and organized.

Thanks Bethany. The kids had a great time and it was a pleasure to have you. It was a tremendous help and easy to communicate. Thanks again

Hi! My name is Alejandra, I’m 22 years old and I have about 5 years of experience caring for children. Taking care of kids has always been part of my life. I grew up helping with my younger brother (who is now 10) and my younger cousins, which helped me develop patience, responsibility, and a natural connection with children. I’m a very creative person and I love keeping kids engaged with fun activities like arts and crafts, creative play, and small projects. I also enjoy photography and anything related to creativity. I’m currently studying Computer Art at Hudson County Community College and I have a certificate in Graphic Design, so I love bringing creativity and imagination into the time I spend with kids. My first language is Spanish, and I also speak English well. I’m caring, responsible, and attentive, and I always try to create a safe, positive, and fun environment where children feel comfortable and supported. I truly love working with kids and being someone families can trust. I would be happy to help support your family and take great care of your little ones. I’m also very comfortable with pets, so having animals in the home is absolutely no problem for me

Alejandra was reliable, friendly, and did a great job jumping right in to put our two boys to bed and complete kid-related tasks after bedtime.

Hi, I’m a college student looking to help out a family who need a sitter. I would describe myself as athletic, as I like to stay active. I’m also creative and love doing art activities. To add on, I’m empathetic and also patient, especially when it comes to kids. I have a variety of experience from babysitting while in high-school, to working at the YMCA as a summer camp counselor these past three summers. I’ve worked with kids as young as 1 up to the age of 15.

Ashley is wonderful! She is very friendly, engaging, and caring. My 20-month-old daughter felt very at ease with her and had a great time together. Thank you Ashely!
