Hello! I recently moved out of New York City leaving my job in childcare (ages prek-8th) of 3 years. Now I am back in school, training to become a Pilates teacher and generally have a flexible schedule. I loved working with the kids, and the emotional reward of impacting their small lives. In addition to my professional experience in childcare, I also have always had young kids in my family to look after. I want to be a mom myself one day, but until then, I will pour my love, nurture, and attention to others. Thank you for your consideration!

I have been professionally babysitting/part-time nannying for family, family friends and clients since high school. Additionally, I have been professionally and consistently tutoring children as young as three years old since high school. Thus, I have experience with young children in both the household and classroom setting. As the oldest of five children, I have been exposed to all of the tasks that come with caring for an infant from a very young age. I come from a large extended family and am the first person called to babysit or to nanny on long family trips. Throughout my experience as a babysitter/nanny, I have encountered a variety of children and family situations which have shaped me into a flexible and quick-thinking worker. Additionally, I respect the culture and rules of each household and gently enforce them. Apart from basic childcare, I uphold high standards of academics and healthy living for the families I work for. My past/current duties with infants include maintaining a feeding schedule, changing diapers, playing and engaging with babies using educational toys, reading, bathing, doing hair, going for walks, getting ready for bed, washing bottles, and tidying up the playroom/nursery. I also tutor and prepare meals. I am very flexible and you may add in other household tasks as you see fit. I believe I have amassed both the skill set and experience necessary to be an effective, loving and nurturing baby sitter. If you would like to discuss the potential for a partnership together, please feel free to contact me. Thank you for your consideration, and I hope to meet you soon. Respectfully yours, Albie
