Kristel Ann $35 per hour for 1 child

I am excited about the opportunity to become a full-time or part-time nanny for your family. I have over 7+ years of hands-on experience working with busy parents and their children providing dependable childcare while also helping managing the household to make everyday life easier for families. I completed my certification in 2021 for LTSS (Long-Term Services and Support) in Montreal, Canada. I speak both English and French fluently. I moved here from Canada over a year ago. I currently live in Brooklyn, NY. I also have over 5+ years of experience working as an orderly (PAB) for seniors privately, within retirement homes and CHSLDs. I take pride in supporting children’s healthy development, academic success, and overall well-being. Communication with parents is very important to me. I make it a priority to check in with parents regularly to discuss their children’s progress, development, any concerns or expectations. I am available Monday to Friday (weekends in urgent cases only). I am able to complete school drop-offs and picks-ups, if it’s within walking distance of your home. I would love the opportunity to bring my experience, reliability, organization, and genuine care for children to your family. I’m happy to provide references, and my phone number upon request. I recently discovered urbansitter, prior to this, I was placed directly with families by an agency in Astoria. I would be happy to provide their contact info as they also have all my references on file. Thank you for considering me. I hope to hear from you soon! 😊

"We absolutely LOVE Isa — our family was so fortunate to have found her through UrbanSitter. I'm a first-time mom, and it took me a long time to find a full-time nanny I could trust to care for our sweet infant boy. Our boy connected with her immediately, and we couldn't have asked for anyone else to care for him. Her calming presence was also perfect for parents like us who work from home. We feel so lucky UrbanSitter helped us find someone who has truly become a part of our family."

"I was so stressed about finding a part-time nanny for my 14-month-old son, who has moderate separation anxiety and hadn't been left with anyone but family before, but we were both immediately at ease in Buhay's presence. Her empathy and commitment to understanding child development are apparent in every interaction I've witnessed between her and my toddler. I feel very lucky to have found her."

"Erna watched our now 5 year old daughter and 3 year old son for a few years. She is punctual, responsible, honest, and playful. What we appreciated most was that she was thoughtful in ensuring that we had a little break; for example, when the kids were clingy, she was able to divert their attention with games or songs or walks to the park. We felt very comfortable leaving our kids with Erna because of her caring nature and experience that spans a decade (including being a live-in nanny)."
