Find nannies in Breezy Point, NY

Hi! My name is Makela, I attend college at LaGuardia Community College, where I’m studying to become a NICU nurse because I’ve always dreamed of caring for little ones. I’ve been looking after kids for about five years now, I have experience working with children aged 0-12 but mostly new borns/toddlers and children up to age of 9. The first job I had was at 14 caring for my little cousin who was a new born at the time and it’s something I’ve loved since the very beginning. I enjoy cooking, dancing, and making everyday moments fun while also being responsible and reliable. I also speak Spanish which is something I’m open to teaching. Most of all, I want to create a safe, happy space for kids and be someone they can look up to. I’d love the chance to bring my energy and care into your family!

Responsible and caring babysitter with experience caring for younger children. I’m patient, attentive, and focused on safety while keeping kids happy and engaged. Available mornings and evenings.

I have worked with children and young people from ages 2-16. I have been a caretaker for numerous families since 2022. I also worked in the Family Programs department of the New-York Historical Society as a museum educator. At the museum, I specialized in early childhood education with ages 3-8. This past academic year I was a teaching assistant for the high school programs at the Clive Davis Institute at Tisch.

I am a hardworking and caring Latina who has 3 years of professional babysitter and nannying experience working with children from as young as 1-month to as old as 12 years old. I worked for a childcare company where I quickly learned how to maintain a calm, patient and loving presence in order to guide children in sharpening interdependence, listening skills and build their confidence to ensure they can shine bright with authenticity and happiness. I am a person who has clear communication skills and likes to check in with parents every step of the way as they gain trust with me as a caregiver. I am reliable child care provider who seeks a respectful workplace that pays a dignified wage for the hard work that often goes unnoticed in the caregiving field. Moreover as a sitter/nanny, I also cleaned homes and have years of experience tidying up the places of people in order to ensure their homes have a clean and fresh energy for them to thrive.
