Find nannies in Ridgewood, NY

Hello! My name is Alex! I'm a passionate, empathetic, and creative student. I've worked with my family and those in my neighborhood, along with working with younger children through school mentor programs. One thing you should know about me is that I always put one hundred percent into anything I do. When I do something, I don't like to do the minimum. In childcare, along with everything else, I bring my best self and effort to the table. I am always determined to make a good impression and go above and beyond in every aspect. I care deeply, and my passion drives me to always put my best foot forward. Whatever you are looking for, I will always come to a job the same way I approach all my other passions: with care, drive, and a commitment to excellence. My skills include meal prep and cooking for children, helping with homework or schoolwork, and providing quality activities and entertainment, including play, crafts, story time, and more.

Glorious Day! I am Atmavidya "Adryn" Mari. I am the eldest of eight siblings and the eldest of my extended family on my mother's side. I have been raised with many children and have supported the upbringing of all my siblings. Being surrounded by children keeps one young and fun at heart. I am short in stature, so I am always on a child's level. I enjoy allowing children exploratory experiences as their minds are young and shaped by engagement. I tend to give children parameters, rather than hard rules. Letting them fill in the gaps is important for their mental and emotional growth. I love reading, taking nature walks, playing in the garden, visiting the farmer's market, meal prepping, experimental food creations, painting, coloring, and laying in the grass looking at the sky. These are all activities I am open to sharing with your child(ren). I am currently caregiving for my grandmother whose mind is experiencing Alzheimers. I share this experience with my mother. I mainly oversee meal preparation (shopping, prepping, and cooking) and spiritual study. We speak a great deal about God and keeping our spiritual health strong while enjoying plant-centered meals. I am a strict vegetarian, so I am unable to feed or cook with meat, eggs, or fish. Yet, my child-friendly cooking skills are on point - Mac n cheese, mashed potatoes, marinara with hidden vegetables, just to name a few. In the past, I have taught three years of gardening classes at Durham Elementary for every grade level, including pre-K. It was a gift to witness the enthusiasm and wonder of young minds experiencing food grown through their influence. I tutored in English and facilitated an after school program at a middle school in Northern California. I am a certified Ayurvedic Practitioner and am currently working on a degree program in Spiritual Metaphysics. I have been using my Ayurvedic degree to support families in realigning their kitchens to promote a sattvic lifestyle because how we engage with food overflows into every aspect of our lives. The kitchen is the center for bringing in homegrown herbs, local produce, and for cultivating a positive mindset through interactions with food and people. This is something I am enthused to speak of more and happy to integrate into my interactions with your family, if interested. My smile is contagious. I appreciate sharing hugs. I am overly honest and handle feedback well. Looking forward to getting to know you and supporting your family.

Hi! My name is Dynasty, I’m from Brooklyn NY born & raised . I’m patient , reliable & also someone who shows empathy when it comes to working with kids and working with children isn’t just my job it’s my passion.

I’m patient, attentive, and skilled at adapting activities to fit each child’s personality and abilities.
