Hi! My name is Fatoumata (Fah-tu-mah-tah), and I’m a New York native who loves working with children and getting to know new families. I’ve been babysitting for about nine years and have experience caring for children of different ages and needs. I also have professional experience as a Home Health Aide and Personal Care Assistant, which has helped me develop strong skills in patience, communication, responsibility, and providing attentive care. I enjoy reading—especially reading to kids—going on walks, spending time outdoors, listening to podcasts, and trying new things. As a New Yorker, I’m always excited to explore different parts of the city, and I love finding fun, age-appropriate activities and adventures to enjoy with the kids I care for. I’m also comfortable helping with light cooking, tidying up, and other household tasks related to childcare. I’m happy to discuss additional ways I can support your family. I’m comfortable working with pets.

Hello!! My name is Kelis and I’m an active 20-year-old! I’m currently working as a summer camp counselor as well as an after-school counselor, where we do all the running, jumping, and playing all day. This has been my job for 4 years now, and it has trained me to maneuver through many tough situations. I love my job and enjoy seeing children have fun and make new memories. I’m currently in college studying sociology with hopes of becoming a social worker in the child care sector. I’m looking for sitter opportunities to further my experience and, of course, have fun! I love to travel and try new foods. My favorite museums would have to be the Museum of Ice Cream and the American Museum of Natural History. I’m currently saving to one day visit Japan, it’s the #1 thing on my bucket list! Outside of childcare, I’m also a signed model! While modeling has been an exciting experience and creative outlet for me, working with children has always been my true passion and the career path I’m most dedicated to pursuing. I’m excited to continue building meaningful connections with families while gaining even more experience doing what I love most!

Hi there! My name is Brenna, I am 29 years old and have worked in child care on and off since I was 13. I have recent infant and special needs experience. In the past, I worked for various after school programs, and in school support positions. I have experience with children of all ages and abilities, including kids with sensory issues and behavioral challenges. I specifically thrive working with children on the autism spectrum as well as adhd. On a more personal note: I love arts and crafts and spending time outdoors! Getting to know the kids I work with and helping them explore their interests and hobbies is so important to me. I strongly believe in providing a safe space for children in my care. I do this by bringing a high level of patience and humor to my jobs. I have not encountered a challenging behavior I couldn’t handle or a child I couldn’t make smile. Because of my work in schools and after schools, I have taking many early childhood development and safety trainings, as well as CPR and first aid training which I try and keep up to date. I have a background check and multiple references as I understand the importance of children's safety, I look forward to hearing from you!

From 2009 onward, I volunteered in different educational capacities to gain experience. In the summers of 2012 and 2013, I landed my first job working for the City of Fremont as a recreational aide. I planned the curriculum, led activities, and supervised the children. Later, I worked at Children's Fairyland for almost two years. In October 2014, I began working at Hortensia's Way preschool, where I stayed for almost seven years. I cared for infants from four months to children up to eight years of age. I enjoyed working at a preschool because I had the opportunity to work with a diverse group of children, and I loved seeing them learn and grow. As a result of my years as a preschool assistant, I have experience in developing and implementing curricula, supervising and teaching children, as well as potty training and facilitating general play. I have nine early childhood education units, and I have worked for four years as a nanny, caring for infants who have grown into toddlers. I have assisted with tummy time, solids, engagement, and routines, as well as creating play spaces!
