Updated Sept 2021 No Availability. I have lots of energy and I blow parents away with my ability to keep up with kids. I already have been cleared with a background check. This also includes finger printed. I have many references Hello Moms and Dads, Mary poppins isn't available, but I am the next best thing. I work well with kids of all ages.I enjoy doing many activities with children and I have a lot of patience, and yes I have been tested before. I do not scream at children. I believe you have to get down to their level so they really can understand what you are saying. I am a big animal lover. Very warm hearted and affectionate. I have 3 dogs and a cat of my own and enjoy them very much. I have over 10 references if needed for childcare. I enjoy working with families instead of a daycare. I like to think of myself as mother's helper. Mom's should always come first in a child's eyes. I am just an extra set of hands when needed. I enjoy reading, getting messy with art's and crafts, taking trips to the library, going to the park, playing catch, baseball, playing dress up and with children. I do really everything. I have made washing a car into somthing fun in the summer time. I enjoy making kids laugh and have a good time. I can also be stern when needed, in the case of discipline I use the time out system. I am a hugh supernanny fan and i never miss a show. I have many references and I will show you that I am not just a great nanny but a great person as well. When it's time for me to go, I will always double check if there is something else you need help with and be more then happy to stay and finsih it for you. I am available ( I dress appropriatly and in the summer i always bring an extra set of clothes, because I don't mind getting dirty or going through a sprinkler with the kids)

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 love being a sitter because I enjoy caring for children and helping them feel safe, happy, and supported. I find it very rewarding to be part of their growth and to support families with loving and responsible care. I currently work at a day care, where I care for 6 children on a daily basis. I have experience supervising children, helping with meals, playtime, learning activities, and daily routines. I have also worked caring for children outside of the day care setting, giving me experience with different ages and family needs. I am patient, responsible, and organized. I have experience caring for multiple children at once, maintaining routines, and creating a safe and positive environment for kids. I speak Spanish and English.
