Hi! I’m a mom of a loving almost 3-year-old toddler with plenty of hands-on experience caring for young children. I understand the importance of patience, safety, and creating a nurturing environment. I’m looking for a position where I can provide reliable, caring support for your little ones—just as I do for my own.
Hello there! A little bit about me 😊 I’m currently a student studying Communication Sciences and Disorders with the goal of becoming a Speech Therapist for kiddos! I have 4 going on 5 years of experience working with children in special education, ABA therapy, early intervention, private nannying, and childcare settings. Most of my experience comes from working at a school in Tribeca for children with autism and an early intervention center. That is where I learned the most and did the most growing with ages 2-12. 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! 😊
Hi! My name is Annie and I just graduated from the University of Virginia with my degree in nursing. I work in the city and I love to babysit in my free time!! I have lots of experience with a wide age range.
Hello! My name is Megan. I have a Bachelor's in Musical Theatre with a Communication minor. I have a vast experience working with children--I have helped with many theatre camps and productions that cast children and have been in charge of watching/ entertaining/ organizing a large group. I have a more intimate experience nannying my (almost 2!) niece from the time she was about 3 months old. I love being around kids--I love stories and music (hence my major!) and I feel at ease around children and want to make them happier and learn as much as they can!
Hi! I’m Kristin! I’m in my twenties and originally from CT, but I’ve been living in NYC since graduating from college. I work in marketing, but I’ve always loved working with children and I’d love to support your family! I’m available most weeknights and weekends. I have over 10 years of childcare experience caring for children of all ages and backgrounds. I’m energetic, engaging, and love creating fun, age-appropriate enrichment activities, while also being attentive to specific routines and preferences. For infants and toddlers, I am experienced in bottle and meal preparation/feeding, diaper changes, potty training, bath and bedtime routines, and following set schedules. For older children, I have a background in tutoring students from elementary school through college, so I’m happy to help with academic work. I’m also fluent in Spanish and ASL. I have experience caring for children with disabilities and specialized needs. I’m happy to work closely with your family to ensure consistency with therapies, behavioral strategies, sensory needs, medication schedules, and other care plans. I’m CPR/First Aid certified, fully vaccinated, a non-smoker, and I’m committed to providing a safe, reliable, and positive environment for your children. I’m also comfortable with travel, public transportation, overnights and caring for multiple children, including twins and triplets. I also have a valid driver’s license and clean driving record if transportation is needed. While the safety of your family is my top priority, I’m also happy to help with light household tasks, pet care, errands, and other family needs. I will ensure your home is clean and I will respect any house rules you have in place. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family! I’m happy to provide references, schedule an introductory call, or arrange a trial visit to ensure we are a great fit!

"Caitlin was awesome and jumped right in to chaperone four girls (10, 9, 8 and 6) at a family wedding (they were bridesmaids) and she was very helpful with the event as well as taking them home and putting them to bed."
Lila P., parent

"McKenna was great with our 3 year old son! She came prepared with a box of fun activities and handled playing, dinner, and bedtime seamlessly... and it was all at our hotel while we were in town for a wedding. Thank you McKenna!"
