Hello!! I have 12 years of childcare experience with 4 of those years spent as a full-time nanny and 1 of them as a house/nanny-manager. I have experience with children ages 3 months-13 years. I prioritize safety and love to be a hands on caretaker. My favorite activities with children include reading, arts and crafts, spending time outdoors, teaching dance (I'm a dance teacher!), and encouraging creativity through fun, engaging activities. I also have experience with household management, including running errands, meal prep and cooking, laundry, light housekeeping, dog walking, and home organization. I also have experience with morning roles in getting kids ready for school/daycare in addition to transport before and after school/camps. I am recently Red Cross CPR certified. I currently work at Paul Taylor Dance Company in the education sector. I have a bachelors degree in marketing from the University of Colorado Boulder Leeds School of Business. In my free time, I love to take dance classes, create art, play with my cat, thrift, and spend time exploring the city!
Hello!! I live in Midtown East!! I’m a mom. I’m very active! I’ve raised an incredible young woman who is living in England. I have spent years taking care of babies, toddlers, kids, tweens, teens. Being a mom is a hard job but I love it! I love spending time with kids/babies and playing and teaching them. I can email you references from jobs that I had before and after this app if you’d like. Looking forward to meeting your family.
“Gaby has been a great addition to our family. Within minutes of meeting our 6 month old, she was sitting on the floor, playing with him. She talks to him throughout the day and keeps him happy and entertained. She's incredibly aware of his needs for sleep, food, and fun. She's also respectful of my wishes for caring for him. Gaby is also a tremendous help around the house, helping with keeping our counters, tabletops, and floors clean! She's easy to communicate with and flexible with start times. She's always on time and very dependable. So happy we have her!”
Hi! I’m Georgia, a graduate student at Columbia university. I’m offering child and pet care services. I have been professionally babysitting for ten years, but as the second oldest of six children, I have been caring for kids my entire life. My experience ranges from picking up children from school, supervising outdoor activities and outings, preparing meals, putting to bed, and occasionally overnight stays (the longest being one week). I also have many years of experience as a summer camp counselor and a children’s surf camp head counselor. Im comfortable taking care of kids of any age, however I have the most experience from ages 2 and up. I’m patient, energetic, and love keeping kids active and engaged, while also being comfortable setting clear boundaries and expectations when needed. I love any and all animals (except spiders) and would be more than willing to work with families with pets.
“Georgia is fabulous. She cared for our daughters (now 5 and 7) on multiple occasions and we trust her completely. She is professional, reliable and loved to play and create with our girls! We wish she still lived near us (we are in California) and we miss her!”
Hi there! My name is Carley, and I am a recent master's graduate in art therapy. My education has given me a strong understanding of children’s unique needs, including how temperament and developmental stages (including creative development!) can shape the way a child experiences the world. I would love to bring along age-appropriate art materials to nurture your child’s self-expression and budding curiosities! My favorite part of caregiving is engaging with children’s imagination, along with the limitless questions and humor that often arise. I also enjoy approaching childcare with creative problem-solving. On multiple occasions, I have successfully distracted a child from a screen by drawing their favorite character and inviting them to color it. I have experience caring for children from infancy through the pre-teen years. I have lived in NYC for a decade and am also comfortable commuting with children on public transportation. My approach is collaborative — I want to work within your parenting style while taking the time to understand your child’s individual personality and inner world. I bring a warm presence, a playful spirit, and a genuine enjoyment of following children’s interests and seeing where their curiosity takes them.
“I’ve known Carley for more than 10 years, since we met while studying abroad, and I’m so happy to recommend her as a caregiver. Over the years, I’ve always known her to be thoughtful, responsible, warm, and incredibly creative. While I haven’t personally seen Carley in a caregiving role, I know she has extensive experience working with children of all ages and has put a great deal of thought and care into building her skills in this area, including through her master’s degree in art therapy. One thing I know for sure is that a child in Carley’s care would never be bored—she is incredibly creative and would be the kind of sitter to come up with fun activities, make art together, and really engage with a child’s imagination and interests. Carley is someone I’ve trusted and valued as a friend for more than a decade, and I would feel completely comfortable recommending her to families looking for a kind, responsible, and genuinely fun caregiver.”
Hello, My name is Elana, For the past 10 years, I've been privileged to nurture children's growth and offer families dependable childcare. My calm and patient nature allows me to connect easily with kids of all ages, from infants to teenagers. I enjoy sparking their imaginations with creative activities, board games, and even educational outings .I follow each family's lead when it comes to household rules and communication preferences. I am comfortable caring for one or more children at a time. I'm also happy to help with cooking, and light housekeeping. Speaking both English and Spanish, I can offer a diverse learning environment. I'm excited to bring my experience and passion to your family, creating a safe and fun space where your child can thrive.
“Elana is great, works super well with our three year old (pick ups after school), is prompt and communicative, and has created a great bond. Our daughter always comes home with energy and positivity after the pick up.”
