Booked by 4 families in Elmhurst, NY

Hello there! A little bit about me 😊 I’m currently a student studying Communication Sciences and Disorders with the goal of becoming a Speech-Language Pathologist! I have 4 going on 5 years of experience working with children in special education, ABA therapy, early intervention, private nannying, and childcare. Most of my experience comes from working at a school for children with autism and an early intervention center. I love keeping childcare fun, playful, and lighthearted, while also being comfortable working with a variety of behaviors, developmental needs, and communication styles. I bring patience, structure, and an educated approach while still making sure kids can be kids! I’m currently looking for a part-time position of around 20 hours a week or less. I’m especially experienced with special needs children, but am just as comfortable with typically developing children. Please reach out if we sound like a good fit! 😊

Emily Jane $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! My name is Emily and I am a house manager and nanny and I love my job! I have four years of full-time experience in childcare, providing attentive and professional care to children of various ages. Beyond traditional babysitting, I have also worked as a personal assistant, managing household and family-related tasks with efficiency and discretion. I have also just completed a year training and working as a co-teacher at a nature-based preschool. Throughout my career, I have had the opportunity to work with high-profile clients, in the entertainment industry and know how to be discreet and professional. Before nannying I worked in the entertainment industry and know the protocols for being on set or in a professional environment. My responsibilities have included creating engaging and educational activities, maintaining daily routines, assisting with schoolwork, coordinating schedules, and handling errands to support the family's needs. My experience has given me strong organizational skills, excellent communication, and the ability to multitask effectively. Whether managing a child’s day-to-day activities or ensuring a household runs smoothly, I bring professionalism, warmth, and reliability to every role.

Hi I'm Einstein, some prefer Frankie but all nicknames are welcome! I have been sitting for 8+ consecutive years CPR + First Aid Certified. I am reliable, responsible, and joy with your little ones. Whatever your needs, I'm here to help! As a volunteer youth counselor and lifelong caregiver, supervisors and parents have always recognized my great communication and innate ability to form a bond with any child. I am from a family of healthcare professionals and growing up I took on the role of caring for my newborn little brother. I've spent years honing my skills as l helped raise my little brother alongside my parents then responsible for babysitting other young relatives as well as the kids of neighboring families and friends known to prioritize their safety, health, and happiness!

“Einstein did a great job and really went above and beyond deep cleaning out apartment! Plus she’s just a joy to be around and I felt so comfortable having her in our home.”

Hello! I would describe myself as patient, friendly, understanding, reliable, and great with kids :) Feel free to ask for the contact info of my references! As of right now, I am the regular sitter for 4-year old & 10-month old sisters. I am seeking occasional/one-time jobs for when I have availability. I previously worked at Breindy Active Fitness. I would watch 2-8 kids at once, all under 3, and many were newborns. I have experience playing with children, calming them from tears, feeding them, changing diapers, reading with/to children, night-time & day-time routines, and more. In my senior year of high school I interned at the Jewish Community Center Day Care. I was a teacher aide for a classroom of 5 year olds. One of the kids had special needs. In high school, I was a part of a club that contained kids with autism and kids without autism. We did many different bonding activities together that exercised my capacity for patience and understanding. I raised with a dog and a cat in the house for over 12 years and consistently took care of them. I often dog sit/cat sit/house sit for my friends when they are on a trip. I grew up very active and played on the Volleyball, Swim, and Rugby Teams at school. I also danced ballet for 10+ years. I love arts & crafts and playing! Also my major was English Literature, so I love stories and reading.
