Find a last-minute babysitter in Ridgewood, NY

Hi, My name is Brianna. I live in Queens, and I am an educator on the Upper East Side. I have my Master's of Science in Teaching Early Childhood Education from Pace University. I have been teaching for 10 years; I currently work with older 2s, but have worked with 3s, Pre-K, and Kindergarten. I have extensive babysitting experience with a range of ages: from infants to middle schoolers. I enjoy taking kids to the playground, baking or cooking fun treats, and doing arts and crafts! In my spare time, I love staying active by doing yoga, cooking, and listening to music. Looking forward to talking with you!

Hi, my name is Iris. I have experienced working with kids from age infants to adolescents. I am responsible, puntual, honest, respectful, and hard working person. I love babysitting because I like to help the kids in their motor skills and academic skills. Activities that I will do with the kids is read books, play puzzle, bubbles, arts and crafts, singing, dancing with the child, taking he or she to the park.

Hi all! Iam a very empathetic and trustworthy caregiver who is extremely reliable. Iam very respectful and have a heart of gold! Personally, I take a child-centered approach. Although I’m happy to introduce fun activities and make suggestions, I’m even more interested in listening to what children are into and encouraging them to explore. This means that I’m willing to allow them to, for instance, climb on playground equipment that they may not be familiar with, which means I will shadow them to prevent any falls. Most importantly, It is important to me that you as the parent, and I as the caretaker are on the same page about how you want your children to be taken care of. I also assist with H.W, bedtime routine, meal prep, medication administration, hygiene care, all while under DIRECT supervision. For my infants, Iam experienced in warming and unfreezing breast milk, burping, Iam able to tell if a child is hungry or tired, diaper changing and how to properly hold a little one, especially before their neck is strong. One of my FAVORITE moments while babysitting, is when one of my kiddos who is on the spectrum, after YEARS of turning down anything that wasn’t a chicken nugget or pizza, FINALLY took his first few bites of a different food with ME! I can’t explain how extremely happy i felt. After YEARS of patience, understanding, determination and emotional support, we hit a goal TOGETHER! I can go on and on about my rewarding experience as a caretaker, but I’m not sure if I’ll ever stop! I look forward to working with you and your family!
