Find local babysitters in Elmont, NY

Hello! I have 16+ years of experience with children of all ages in many capacities over the years. I have sat, cared for, cooked for and mentored children from infants/toddlers, ages 2mo to 6 years through school age. I have worked primarily with infants, pre-k, this past 5 years, helping with sleep training, feeding schedules and nap schedules, caring for babies and older siblings simultaneously. I love getting children engaged in outdoor activities, art, music, home crafts, cooking, baking and all other age appropriate games and activities. I prefer an afternoon walk in the park, museum, iceskating, creating art and listening to music vs. children siting home on an Ipad, watching TV. There is so much to discover! I love children and always happy to help when I am available! Please note: *I have a 5 hour minimum, rates are based on infants, number of children, weekday, weekend and nights. I am open to short term, temporary full time, full days, weekends, weekend nights Should your current caregiver need a holiday or you are traveling out of the country, visiting and need a hotel sit, I travel for SKI trips and vacations or long term temporary while you search for the perfect permanent caregiver. I have done all of the above and helped many parents while providing stellar childcare. I have run art programs for children in Wisconsin (YMCA after school art program) and California. I have worked for clients who have praised me for my work with children.

I would like to find a family that really appreciates really good child care and someone whom loves children and has a strong set of morals with gentle guidance, yet is fun and kind.

Its been a long pandemic, I am fully vaccinated and boosted. I am your weekend backup to help you reset after a long week of being a superhero aka parent. I began working with children at the age of 15. I was a Counselor in Training at a sleep away camp. The following two years I worked as a Camp Counselor at the same camp. I began babysitting at the age of 18. I have worked with multiple families with multiple children. I currently work at a Dance Studio as the manager and instructor. The Dance Studio mostly caters to children between the ages of 2 through 14. I am currently certified in First Aid/CPR/AED for both Adult and Pediatric. My experience makes me qualified but my personality is why I have such a great relationship with the kids. Babysitting has always been fun for me. Children are true little sponges that soak up everything. The things they say or do always manage to make my day brighter. Being younger allows me to truly enjoy my time with families. I love to go outside with kids play a little soccer, baseball, or basketball. Kids always love that I can teach them some dance moves. Although usually most kids just prefer me to read to them. I try to give every character in a book their own voice. I haven't had a bad experience sitting. The occasional meltdown is expected and I'm prepared to handle whatever is thrown mine way. References, a resume and a professional background check are available upon request.

Appreciation of one of my Employers (for the others see my reviews) 1- Marie Fernandez wrote : Nogaye is a great caregiver and teacher for our 2 year old daughter. She is very energetic and fun to be around. She is great in keeping our toddler always very busy by bringing her to the library, sing-a-long events, dance classes, the museum, the botanical garden and by being proactive in organizing play dates either at the playground/parks or indoors. Our daughter loves her. 2 Brian Tubbs. Nogaye was a wonderful French/English Nanny to our daughter. For one year Nogaye cared for our daughter full time. She did everything from the basics, diapers, feeding and cleaning, to teaching French an English while playing inside and outdoors. Nogaye is full of energy to keep up with the wildest child or inspire one's a bit more reserved. They were always going outside and to different places for fun, learning and playgroups. Nogaye is very skilled with children with separation anxiety and really understands what the child needs. Additionally, her studies in Child Development make her an excellent care giver. Nogaye treats my daughter as her own, and my daughter has grown very attached to Nogaye. - even asking for her on the weekends.

I am a Professional Childcare Provider/Baby Homie and Artist because I am a fun-loving and free-spirited nurturer by nature. My professions are my passion and livelihood. I am athletic and I like to keep moving. I love smiling, singing, dancing, drawing, doing puzzles, building with LEGOs, teaching, playing games, reading books and taking walks. I can also make fresh baby food. I am a native New Yorker with New Orleanian roots. Coming from a family of artists of all sorts, I have a whimsical-creative style and personality. I am 42 years old, have no children of my own and I have a very flexible schedule. I am a Certified Newborn Care Specialist and First Aid/Child/Infant CPR trained and certified. I absolutely adore babies. I understand the difficulty and importance of finding trustworthy care for your baby. Babies are the best thing this world has to offer and they deserve more than just a human surveillance system. Hire a caregiver driven by love, who will engage and stimulate your child.

**ACTIVELY SEEKING GIGS - FALL 2025** HEY! I'm Harrison. I’m actively looking for gigs in the Fall and beyond. I work with a family regularly in the afterschool hours M-Th, but I’m wide open Friday-Sunday and weekday daytime + evenings. I’m up for logistic-satisfying hangs, orchestrating grand adventures, date night coverage, and more. If you think I may be a good fit for your family, would love to connect! A little about me— I moved to Brooklyn ~4 years ago to manage a giant rock climbing gym. I've worked with kids a ton in climbing gyms over the last 10 years, from running summer camps to making birthday parties awesome. After leaving my role last year, I transitioned to sitting/nannying in an attempt to reclaim joy in my work life-- and it's been a blast so far. I like climbing, games (video, board, word, active, other), telling riddles + jokes (ask me about street sweepers!) building things, cooking, soccer, swimming, and riding my bike excessive distances. I went to school for film, and I used to be a producer on a PBS show-- I still love filming/editing fun videos with the kids I sit for (*movie magic*)! I'm CPR / first aid certified and generally skilled at balancing fun and safety in childcare settings. I'm a skilled driver, though I do not currently own a car. Beyond just sitting, I'm happy to support with: -homework help! I used to student teach / tutor English back in high school, and I am generally math-proficient. -meal prep! I chef 95% of my apartmenthold's meals right now, and I love to cook. -climbing! Wanna learn the ropes or just give it a try? I'm your guy. -pet care! I live with 3 cats (1 mine, 2 my girlfriend’s) and I care for dogs of friends & clients regularly. Hope to hear from you!

Hi! I've been a nanny and babysitter for over 14 years, caring for children from just a few weeks old up to age 12. What started as helping out a co-worker occasionally has grown into something I've done alongside my professional life for over a decade-and I genuinely love it. Most recently, I spent 7 years with one Brooklyn family, caring for their son from age 5 through 12. I've also worked with babies, toddlers, and sibling combos, including kids with autism and mood-related challenges. I'm confident juggling different needs, ages, and personalities-whether that's helping a toddler through potty training or guiding a 10-year-old through homework frustration. I'm comfortable with: -Infants, toddlers, and older children (including multiples) -Special needs (including mild autism and mood disorders) -Doctor visits -Daytime outings, pickups/drop-offs -Cooking, light cleaning, bedtime, bath time, homework help -Pet-friendly homes (I love animals!) I freelance & work remotely in sales and marketing, which gives me a flexible schedule. Whether you need regular care or backup support, my goal is to make your life easier and help your child feel safe, supported, and seen.
