Hi! My name is Anastazija, and I am a dedicated and caring nanny with a background in healthcare. I graduated as a nurse and currently work full-time in the medical field, which has strengthened my skills in responsibility, attentiveness, and patient care.

With my nursing background, I am trained in first aid and emergency response, allowing me to provide an extra level of care and reassurance. I am patient, reliable, and truly enjoy creating a warm and nurturing environment where children can grow and feel supported. Whether it’s helping with homework, organizing activities, or simply being a caring presence, I am committed to supporting families in the best way possible. I am available on weekends and during evenings throughout the week. References are available upon request—feel free to reach out!

Booked by 4 families in Wykagyl, NY

Hi there! I'm Karina, a recent NYU graduate offering child and pet care! As the eldest in my family I've been working with kids since I was little and love to work with the PreK-12 age range. I also work as an after school lead tutor with the NYPL during the school year and can help that same age range with any homework subject. I can work with children individually or with as many as 5 kids at a time. I speak fluent Spanish and intermediate French. My goal with children is to inspire a love of learning and sense of wonder in the world around them and to do so through fostering curiosity, empathy, and a mutual sense of respect. Additionally, I'm often the first person my friends call up to petsit and am comfortable with cats and dogs, including those with medical needs.
