Hi! I'm Irlanda, a caring, dependable, and energetic childcare professional with over 8 years of experience working with infants, toddlers, and young children. I've worked as both a Teacher Assistant and Head Teacher in early childhood education, where I've planned engaging activities, supported children's development, and built strong relationships with families. I'm also completing my Master's degree in TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages), which has strengthened my communication skills and understanding of child development. I love creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where children can learn through play, exploration, and creativity. Whether we're reading stories, doing arts and crafts, spending time outdoors, or working on age-appropriate learning activities, I strive to make every child feel supported and encouraged. Families describe me as patient, responsible, organized, and easy to communicate with. I'm comfortable caring for multiple children, preparing meals and snacks, helping with bedtime routines, and keeping parents updated throughout the day. My goal is to give parents peace of mind while ensuring their little ones feel happy, safe, and cared for.

Hi, I’m Alicia! I am a first-year student studying at Fordham University at Lincoln Center. I am offering child care, animal care, and household services. As a big sister, I’ve spent my whole life caring for my younger siblings, which sparked my passion for babysitting. I have hands-on experience watching over toddlers and ensuring their safety while juggling school drop-offs and pick-ups for their older school-age siblings. Over the years, I’ve cared for numerous young children, creating a fun, nurturing, and safe environment that parents can trust. As a result of working in multiple customer service jobs along with my engrained family position of being a middle child, I’ve developed an outgoing yet adaptable personality that allows me to connect with children of all ages and personalities. I genuinely enjoy being around different people and pride myself on my patience, creativity, and ability to handle any situation with a smile. Whether it's playtime, homework help, or bedtime routines, I’m dedicated to providing reliable and loving care for every child I watch. I also adore animals and would be happy to help with your furry loved ones, whether it be feeding, walking, or just playing. I have two of my own and know just how important they are to a family !! I can also help as a household assistant, providing tasks such as cleaning or running errands.

I have over thirty-five years taking care of children in New York City. I have worked with hundreds of children of all ages, but primarily under five years old.
