Hello and thank you for viewing my profile! My name is Katie and I currently work at a child care center where I’ve been for 5 years now. I’m part of a big family so I’ve been babysitting for a large portion of my life. I’m very understanding, reliable and patient plus I’m CPR and first aid certified which I keep up with. I work at my current job until 3:15 every day so I’m available afterwards and on weekends. If you have any more questions feel free to ask. Thank you!

*Seeking after-school job in Park Slope in September with FUN family! Hello everyone, I’m looking for an after school job in Park Slope with an organized, fun, thoughtful family for the school year. I would need 20 hours minimum, and would be available for date nights as well. Park Slope is next to where I live, as I live in Sunset Park next to Green-Wood. This is key if you have last minute needs outside of normal working hours. I’m always punctual, have an unparalleled joy for life, 24 years of experience, and excellent references! In fact they’d all love to speak with you on my behalf, including my two recent families I’ve worked for in Park Slope a sweet baby in the morning, and 2 primary school children afterschool for the last 3 years. I still see them on occasion for weekend or date nights. I have many years experience with babies, toddlers, and grade school children as well. I’ve also cared for several sets of twins! I love listening, teaching, and explaining things. I'm also a (fun & effective) reading and spelling teacher/tutor for children 3-6, I'm well traveled, (mostly all Europe) speak Italian, went to Fiorello LaGuardia as an art major, am a singer, mostly 1930’s-1940’s jazz, But most of all, I’m genuinely happy, and see the good in everyone. I create life long loving bonds with the children I care for and their parents, and children feel safe and secure talking to me about things that may be bothering them. I’ve had many parents over the years ask if perhaps I might speak to their child to find out what’s going on, it’s my forte! I also handle any behavior with understanding and redirecting in a positive way, because they are after all, still learning. I adore dogs as well, and am happy to take them for walks as well! On an end note, my hourly may be more than you were hoping for, but I’m absolutely worth it, ask anyone! Thanks for reading, and here’s hoping everyone finds their very own Mary Poppins! Monique F.

Jasmine B.

Hi, my name is Jasmine. Read a little about me below: I have 14 years of baby sitting/nannying experience (2008-2018). Additionally, in 2015 I started working at a elementary charter school in Brooklyn, NY called Brooklyn Prospect. I’ve had the honor of moving up the scale through a number of promotions. Unfortunately, 2021 was my last year working with my BPCS family as I became pregnant and wanted to take some personal time to enjoy my pregnancy. Much of my childcare career has surrounding around caring for children starting from infancy to 13. Working with children has been my passion as you can see for years. Having engaging interactions, playing, discussing interest and overall getting to know the young ones is a joy that keeps me going. My interest? I have lots of them but my ultimate favorite is dancing so I’m always down for a dance party. I love to be active and run. Want to play basketball, soccer.. I’m so down!!

Caring for my younger siblings and students in my community influenced my decision to become a caregiver. Participating in activities such as summer enrichment classes and daycare learning centers fueled my passion even more, and those experiences taught me that I am passionate about helping people and improving the daily lives of those in need of care. Supporting my students taught me patience, compassion, and problem-solving skills. I learned how to deal with problems quickly and effectively in order to keep them healthy and safe.
