Hello! Thanks for visiting my profile. I am new to the NYC area and at this time am only available for occasional weekends or weekday evenings. I have caregiving experience with ages 1-7 as well as many years of teaching & sports coaching experience with elementary and middle school aged students. When guiding children, I am genuine, kind, and patient. I study Montessori methods and my style is gentle yet firm. I enjoy being around kids of all ages as well as dogs and cats, and am comfortable caring for pets. I also enjoy tidying and organizing.

Hi, I’m Andri! I’ve lived in NYC for 9 years and have over 10 years of childcare experience caring for infants, toddlers, and school-aged children. I’ve worked with many private families throughout NYC and have experience with both daytime and evening care. I’m kind, caring, dependable, and energetic. I enjoy keeping children active and engaged through outdoor activities, games, arts and crafts, reading, and age-appropriate activities. I also enjoy preparing healthy meals and helping families keep their children’s routines organized. Childcare has been a big part of my life since I was 15, and over the years I’ve built strong relationships with the families I work with. I understand how important it is for parents to have someone they can trust, communicate with, and feel comfortable having in their home. I’m currently looking for occasional, part-time and I’m happy to help with date nights, weekends, evenings, and other childcare needs.

Dear parents, I am a 35year old nanny from Poland. I graduated from Oklahoma City University with a dual degree BA in cello performance and liberal arts and obtained my MA in Public International Law/ Human Rights degree from John Jay college. I have eight years of experience working as a nanny and I can provide multiple references upon request. Through college, I took classes in child development and had various opportunities to work as a tutor as well as a full-time and part-time babysitter to families with children of varying ages, including newborns. I am responding to your advertisement because I am a very honest, responsible, loving, and warm person, truly committed to any job I do but especially those in childcare. I have found so much joy working closely with many families and helping their children develop. I am looking to find a nice family to work with occasionally and help out as much as possible; and always with a smile. I have been told many times how much parents value my preparation for work. I always come up with different activities for the children to keep them mentally stimulated but also to ensure they're having fun with their imaginations and creativity! In a typical day, the children would participate in Arts and Crafts projects, music lessons, story-telling, and many safe and fun games. I always make my activity plans based on what children are interested in, as well as the activities that their parents prefer. I believe in the importance of routine, but as always, I put the parents concerns first. In addition, I pride myself on always helping with cooking, laundering, and cleaning. I hope I get the chance to meet with you and I thank you so much for your time and consideration. If You have any questions, please feel free to contact me. Kind Regards, Agata

Hi! My name is Lily, I work and live full time in New York, and I went to Virginia Tech for school. I love being a babysitter and I’m trying to find opportunities to continue baby-sitting here. I have been baby-sitting since I was about 14 years old. I’ve sat kids 9-11, and my younger cousins who are 3, 7, 10, and 13. I am a kind, thoughtful and creative person who likes to craft, knit, read and play board games in my free time. I love kids and I am a patient, responsible, and caring individual. I can also work as a household assistant who cleans, runs errands, house sits or pet sits. I grew up with 3 cats and a dog and I just adore pets. I miss my chocolate lab back at my parent’s house. :)

Hi there! I’m Madeleine, and I’m attending NYU at the moment. I am a Psychology major, and find working with kids fascinating as you can really see skills and proficiencies develop. I have worked as a babysitter for children from 5-12, and as a summer camp counselor for children from 4-13. I have also worked in temporary childcare for children from 6 months to 12 years. I am a former STEM school student, where I volunteered as a tutor for Math, Science, and SAT prep. I am able to assist with homework or skill building in these areas. I previously sang in a choir for seven years, in multiple vocal parts, and am able to work with learning solfège or sight reading.
