Phyllis $30 per hour for 1 child

I love working with children, seniors, infants and animals and have been involved in service and care work for over 50 years. Though I am a senior myself, I am full of energy and enthusiasm. My passion for teaching, children and 🎶 music lead me to get involved with the Music Together program. I also have training in infant & adult CPR and have teaching certifications in Music Together and Trauma- Informed Yoga & Mindfulness. I am a 500 hour Registered Yoga Therapist and have taught Family Yoga. Senior Yoga & PreNatal Yoga for the past 25 years @ the local Prospect Park YMCA up until COVID. My work experience has given me the opportunity of working @ Berkeley Carroll School as well as public schools in the NYC metropolitan area. The truth is I am such a “wannabe” grandma and love being around, babies, children and animals. I look forward to getting to know your unique children and family …. pets included ! Please feel free to reach out to me.

Hi everyone! I’m Madeline I have been living in Brooklyn for 5 years now and I am currently a print designer for children’s clothing.

I am a very patient person, and will always respect your time, home and family. Throughout college I was a part time nanny and weekly took up one time babysitting gigs through my sororities babysitting group. My hobbies include yoga, being outside, reading and cooking.

I also have 8+ years of nanny experience and am happy to help with childcare or occasional date nights if needed.

I am Cornelia , an experienced nanny with great references! I have had the opportunity to care for kids from newborns to school age for the past 16 years, and it has been a pleasure. My skills has sharpened as the years went by, and it has taught me a lot about myself. I love caring for kids because it affords me the opportunity to help contribute towards our next generation, as the first three years of a child’s life is the most crucial phase developmentally.
