Find nannies in Ridgewood, NY

After years working in hospitality and most recently as a Corporate Catering Director within a law firm, I decided to take a step in a new direction and focus more intentionally on the things that have always mattered to me: psychology, wellness, and working with children. I’m currently pursuing my degree in Psychology while continuing to deepen my yoga teaching practice. I’m a Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT-200), certified in Children’s Yoga, and CPR/AED/First Aid certified for both adults and children. Caring for children has also been part of my life for many years. I began babysitting and nannying in high school and continued throughout my early college years. Today, I’m also a very involved aunt to my 6-year-old niece and almost 1-year-old nephew. My niece, Emily, is on the autism spectrum, and spending time with her has given me an even deeper appreciation for how differently children communicate, process their surroundings, and express their needs. I bring a calm, warm, patient presence into the homes I work in, while still understanding the importance of structure, safety, routine, and play. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each child as an individual and creating an environment where they can feel comfortable, supported, and completely themselves.

Hi! I'm Sofia, a 24-year-old caregiver with several years of hands-on experience supporting children — especially toddlers and preschoolers — through developmental therapy, babysitting, and child-led learning. My background includes working with children in early intervention settings using D.I.R./Floortime approaches to support cognitive growth, sensory regulation, emotional expression, and motor planning. I’ve worked one-on-one in homes to help kids meet milestones, manage transitions, and navigate big emotions through connection and co-regulation. In addition to my therapy experience, I’ve provided consistent nanny and babysitting care for families with infants, toddlers, and school-aged kids. I’m a strong believer in respectful, responsive caregiving, and I love creating environments where children feel safe, seen, and celebrated. Whether it’s building sensory bins, planning simple routines, or supporting nap time with calm consistency, I bring warmth and intention to my work. I’m also a great fit for families looking for someone reliable, grounded, and flexible. I currently work a hybrid part-time schedule which gives me flexibility Monday through Friday. I’m comfortable working in homes with pets, following Montessori-inspired or gentle parenting approaches, and being a calm presence during high-energy moments (tantrums don’t scare me!). Some quick facts: -I have my own reliable transportation and am punctual -I’m based in the Hudson/Bergen County area and open to nearby travel -I'm Bilingual (spanish speaking) -I love sensory play, nature walks, music, and simple creative activities -I’m open to long-term roles, part-time care, or summer-only positions Whether you're a parent looking for structured, engaging support during the week, or someone who needs reliable, developmentally-aware care for your little ones, I’d love to see if we’re a match. Thank you for considering me!
