Hi! My name is Margot and I'm currently a School Counseling Ed.M. student at Teachers College, Columbia University. I am offering child care, pet care, and household services. I love working with children and have experience as a babysitter, elementary school literacy tutor, camp counselor for special needs children, and recreation assistant at a children's hospital. In all of these roles, I have used my creativity, empathy, and patience to engage children in play and learning, while maintaining a safe environment. I have babysat for both neurotypical and neurodivergent kids, providing flexible care depending on their needs and developmental levels. I am also happy to assist with homework, projects, and other assignments. I love crafts, music, science experiments, and anything that involves being imaginative and having fun. I also can help with household chores and errands, and I am happy to work with families with pets, as I am a big animal lover!
Hello! I'm Samira 😊 I have been taking care of children since I was 17 years old, and over the years it has become something that feels very natural to me. I have worked as a nanny and Au Pair with children of different ages, helping with their daily routines, school collections, activities and simply being part of their daily life. I really enjoy working with kids because I naturally connect with them. I’m a very patient, empathetic, and attentive person, and I pay close attention to their emotions and needs. I like creating a calm, positive environment where they feel comfortable, but also keeping things fun and engaging through play and simple activities. I’m also reliable, organized, and someone families can truly count on. I value building a trusting relationship and bringing a warm, positive energy into the home. I am a native Spanish speaker (I'm originally from Argentina) and I speak English fluently, and I am happy to incorporate both languages naturally if that is something you would like.
“It is a pleasure to write this recommendation for Samira, who served as an extraordinary au pair for our family over the past eighteen months. Samira joined our household when our daughter was just two and a half years old, and she cared for her until she turned four. From day one, Samira exceeded every expectation, demonstrating an incredible mix of responsibility, warmth, intelligence, and grace. Samira was far more than a traditional caregiver; she was a dedicated educator, a nurturing role model, and an irreplaceable part of our child’s early development. It is completely natural for parents to feel anxious or cautious when bringing someone new into their home to care for their children. We certainly understood that initial worry, but meeting Samira immediately put all of our concerns to rest. She made an incredible first impression. Her warm, friendly, curious, intelligent, and grounded personality was instantly clear, as was her natural ability to connect with young children. From the very beginning, her genuine commitment to childcare and family well-being shone through. Throughout her tenure with us, Samira displayed an exceptional ability to balance the complex responsibilities of childcare. She seamlessly navigated the delicate act of being a clear disciplinarian, an engaging teacher, and a joyful, trusted friend. She introduced creative educational concepts and fun learning activities daily, teaching our daughter so much while keeping her continually engaged, safe, and curious about the world around her. She handled every routine, challenge, and daily transition with immense patience and supreme politeness. By the end of her term with us, the bond between Samira and our daughter was nothing short of wonderful. Watching our daughter grow, learn, and thrive under Samira's care was a great joy for our family. Samira was not only a caregiver our daughter trusted implicitly, but also a true role model whose positive habits, kindness, and strong values left a lasting impact. I can say without a single hesitation or reservation that there is strictly no negative comment to make regarding Samira’s time with us. She is prompt, highly responsive, dependable, and thoroughly capable of handling any childcare need, whether full-time, part-time, early morning, or evening care. She is a guaranteed, top-tier choice for any family fortunate enough to work with her.”
