I am a mother of a 16-year-old girl and a 9-year-old boy, with many years of experience caring for children aged 0 to 36 months. I have a background in Psychology and a deep passion for working with children. I love cooking, spending time outdoors, engaging in crafts, and telling stories. Since moving from Brazil six years ago, I have worked as a caregiver for elderly individuals while continuing to study child development. Recently, I earned certification from the Positive Discipline Association, and I firmly believe that respectful and positive communication fosters a safe and supportive environment for children to grow and learn. I love to laugh, always look on the bright side of life, and enjoy the company of both children and dogs.

I graduated from Villanova University in May 2018 with a degree in Nursing and Spanish Language & Literature. I previously worked in the hospital for 6 years full time night shift as a registered nurse, first on an orthopedic/surgical unit and second on a mother/baby unit. I recently began working dayshift full time in an endocrinologist office Monday through Friday. I cannot commit to any full time babysitting jobs, so I am currently looking for jobs on an as needed basis (weekends, date nights, night nurse). I started out as a mother's helper early in middle school and began babysitting in eighth grade (2009). I continued babysitting until roughly 2020 when most parents were working from home and I was working on a Covid unit in the hospital so it was best that I self isolate for others’ safety. This amounts to over 10 years of babysitting experience. I also have roughly 3.5 years experience working with newborns through my job in the nursery and on the post partum unit. I have babysat for multiple families over the years, and most families I kept up with for several years. I've worked with children ranging from 6 months to teenagers in high school. I do not feel comfortable listing my references' personal information on my profile but I have plenty of references I could provide you with privately should you be interested in me for this position. I have also undergone child abuse checks, background checks, and CPR certification through my job and can provide proof or undergo testing again if necessary. I am also up to date on all vaccinations. I also am proficient in Spanish. I have my own car for transportation and I have experience transporting children as needed. I also have experience with homework help and meal prep and am open to any light chores that need assistance.

I am looking for a full-time summer position. I can start end of June. I live in Carmel, NY but am willing to travel. I have my own car, as well. I believe I have a great deal of patience and I put my heart into everything I do. I am responsible and flexible with times/schedules. Being in a school setting, I've had to deal with many different situations and have learned how to deal with them successfully and in an effective way. I'm 26 years old and graduated from graduate school for elementary education (K-6). I went to Sacred Heart University in Fairfield, CT for undergrad and grad school. I received my Master's Degree for Elementary Education. I interned and student taught in Darien, CT. I taught in Kindergarten and absolutely loved it. I currently teach at an elementary school in Mahopac. I've been working with children ever since I was 13, whether it was babysitting or working at a day camp. I worked at a day camp for 3 summers and worked with children ages 5 & 6. I hope to teach Kindergarten or 1st grade in the future. I've worked for several different types of families in the past. I've babysat for as many as 5 kids at once, ranging from infant to 12 years old (I've also had experience with pets of all kinds!). I have many younger cousins and 2 younger siblings that I've babysat for and that has provided me with additional experience! I love doing arts and crafts and being outdoors with the kids. I love being creative! If you need a fun, easy-going, caring, responsible and flexible babysitter, please don't hesitate to contact me. Thank you!

Hello parents! My name is Azia and I'm 28 years old. I'm a licensed marriage and family therapist and have over 10 years of experience working with and caring for children. The age ranges I've cared for is 2 months to 14 years old. When caring for younger children, I engage them in imaginative play, teach the the basics such as sight words, colors, numbers, etc., help them with emotion regulation, take them to the park, library, etc, read to them and anything else that made them happy/ the parents would like me to do with them. When caring for older children, I take them to their extracurricular activities, assist them with homework, offer them a listening ear (if they're interested), and anything else they may need help with. I have my own vehicle so transportation will never be an issue. I'm currently running my own private practice part time so looking for something part time or full time Friday and Saturday. I look forward to connecting with you :)

As one of the older siblings in a family of four, my experience caring for others started early, and it’s been at the heart of my life ever since. I’ve always been drawn to working with children. I spent two years as an elementary school teacher, where I gained real-world training in child development and classroom management. Since then, I’ve worked as a private tutor, supporting kids in both academic growth and emotional confidence. I’ve cared for children of various ages, including managing multiple kids at once, and I always strive to create a loving, compassionate, and positive environment where they feel safe, supported, and free to be themselves. My CPR and First Aid certification is up to date, and I’m also a lifelong animal lover, so I’m always happy to care for pets too! I’m fluent in Spanish, which is my first language, and I enjoy bringing fun and good energy to every family I work with. I truly believe in the power of positive thinking and giving my best in everything I do. I look forward to the opportunity to meet your family and provide care you can feel confident about!

I am a professional nanny with many years experience with infants, young children and teens. For many years I was a stay at home mom, but now my children are getting older and independent. I have a joyful home that I share which my husband almost 30 years and my son 21 in college, and my daughter 16. I loved being home which my children and aside from my affection for them, I have gained a wealth of knowledge in health and welfare. I am a very responsible loving and conscientious caregiver. The safety of children in my care is most important and essential. I have nurtured babies, feeding, diapering, bathing and all manner of care. I have safely driven children to and from school, activities and outings.I have kept complex household schedules, prepped and cooked delicious and nutritious meals, and cleaned up. I have helped out with pets, run errands, gone grocery shopping, laundry and light house keeping. Actives I enjoy doing with children are all about being physically active outdoors, hiking on trails, exploring nature, playing in creeks and going to the beach, pool, zoo, or just playing at the playground. It’s great fun making couch forts on rainy days and baking cookies. Being creative with crafts and painting works of art for quiet time activities. I try to encourage responsibility in children by having them help clean up their toys and seeing the value in being a good helper. I discourage screens and encourage books. I love reading to children and teaching them about the world. Mostly I strive for FUN! I have a special needs child and I have spent many years in specialized therapies. I have developed a very intuitive and sensitive nature in dealing whith my child’s disability. It has been the center of our lives 24/7. I understand the patience and nuance that is required when working and striving for important developmental milestones. I have completed two parent training courses at The Yale child Study Center, New Haven.
