Find a wedding babysitter in Long Island City, NY

Hello! My name is Maggie, and I am a new resident of NYC, moving from DC! I am a professional dancer, arts administrator, and teaching artist who is passionate about using dance and movement to heal, empower, and connect individuals & communities. I have been working with children of all ages & abilities in an educational capacity for almost 10 years now, mainly through dance education, after school programs, and academic enrichment. I have been teaching dance to children in various spaces and capacities (dance studio, community centers, elementary and middle schools, theaters, etc.) since I was 16 years old. In DC, I worked as an Aftercare Lead Artist, creating and facilitating academic and arts enrichment curriculum for children K-3. Additionally, I worked as a Lead Artist for Dance Exchange, teaching creative dance to intergenerational groups of people, including youths and their parents, grandparents, etc. I have plenty of experience working with older adults through creative aging programs. I am a certified Behavior Health Technician and have worked with children on the Autism spectrum, teaching academic and life skills, as well as creating engaging experiences for them to connect and express through dance! I have worked for years as a Lifeguard & Swim Instructor, so I have lots of experience when it comes to the safety and well-being of children of all ages. Finally, I have worked various jobs specifically in childcare and babysitting, mainly for family, friends, colleagues, and individuals in the dance community. I absolutely adore and respect children and consider myself an engaging, active, fun, personable, empathetic, calm, kind, and joyous person and caregiver. I very much believe in following the lead of the child - their interests, their passions, their curiosities. Child-led play and experiential learning show up in how I work with children in any and all capacities, including caregiving. We can read, work on homework, do arts and crafts, sing and dance, play outside, whatever the child would like to do and however I can help them grow, big or small! I am completely up-to-date on all vaccinations, including COVID-19 (boosters included). I am a native English speaker and can speak basic conversational Spanish. I am CPR and First Aid certified. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. Please don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions, and I look forward to hearing from you soon and meeting you and your wonderful kiddos!

Hi! My name is Holland and I recently graduated from Auburn University this past May and moved to New York City for work. I am offering child care, pet care, and household services.

Dear Urban sitter families, as a Nanny with an educational background in early childhood development and over ten years of experience caring for children ranging from 2.5 through age 16, I believe I can add a lot of value to your family. I began babysitting at an early age. I knew I always wanted to work with children, and I went to school to get an associate degree in early childhood development. During that time, I worked as a Child Care Assistant in Michigan, where I attended to the needs of over 25 children from 2.5 through age four. In my last role as a live-out Nanny for a family of three, I regularly provided after-school enrichment for the children, planned meals, organized games and activities and completed light housework such as dusting, mopping and sweeping. I excel at remaining calm in challenging situations and possess excellent communication, time management, and organizational skills. In addition to housework, I have comprehensive experience completing errands and cooking nutritious meals. I'm also certified in first aid/CPR ,love animals and I'm an excellent swimmer. Thank you for your time and consideration. With my unique skills, experience and passion for child care, I feel that I can make an excellent addition to your family . Please feel free to contact me!
