Laylah S., Babysitter in Hastings on Hudson, NY 10706 with 16 years of paid experience

Hello! With over 16 years of experience caring for children of all ages, I bring a deep passion for child development along with the professionalism and flexibility to support high-profile, domestic and international families. I specialize in caring for infants, with a strong focus on sleep training, feeding routines, and daily schedules. Often with infant and school-age children, — supporting multiple children across different ages. I’m known for creating calm, engaging, and enriching environments where children thrive emotionally, socially, and creatively. My style is hands-on, warm, and imaginative. I love involving children in outdoor play, creative art projects, theatre games, children's cooking lessons, and music appreciation—offering thoughtful, developmentally appropriate alternatives to screen time. Whether it’s an afternoon in the park or discovering a new museum, I believe in learning through exploration and joy. Over the years, I’ve supported families during domestic and international travel, ski holidays, weddings, hotel stays, and temporary relocations. Whether you need support for a weekend, a full day, overnight, or longer-term coverage while you search for the perfect permanent caregiver, I offer flexible, professional, discreet, high-standard tailored to your family’s lifestyle. I’ve led children’s art and theatre programs in California and Wisconsin (YMCA art programs) and have consistently received glowing feedback for my calm presence, reliability, and genuine love for children. I’m happy to assist with light cooking, routines, bedtime, and stepping in whenever life demands extra hands. Please note: I have a 5-hour booking minimum. Rates vary depending on infant care, number of children, weekday, weekend, and evening needs. I’m open to short-term bookings, temporary full-time, weekends, and travel, depending on availability. If you're seeking a kind, trustworthy, and experienced caregiver who brings warmth, structure, and creativity to your child’s day—I’d love to connect.

Shawnette S., Babysitter in Hastings on Hudson, NY 10706 with 15 years of paid experience

Hi there- I have 15+ years of childcare experience. I can help with laundry. I'm a warm, kind, patient, gentle, trustworthy, reliable, energetic and fun-loving woman with a kind spirit who adores children. Working with children is very rewarding for me. Being able to communicate with a child is essential for understanding their wants and needs. I believe children are all unique and each child develops and learns in individual and distinct ways. Currently, I work in a high school as a Paraprofessional, 1:1 with students that have an IEP. I am also a full-time college student majoring in Sociology with a minor in Early Childhood & Special Education. I am fully vaccinated and boosted against Covid-19. I am trained and certified in the following.. Adult and Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED, Bloodborne Pathogen and Sexual Harassment. Giving back to my community is something I'm passionate about. This is why I've been a volunteer with New York Cares since 2018. Helping my community is a way for me to grow as a person and connect with the people in and around my community. I have experience working with infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and school-age children. Some of my childcare responsibilities includes but not limited to: encouraging/assisting children in reaching their age-appropriate development milestones; organizing/hosting playdates, snack/meal prep, kitchen/play area clean-up, homework help, read to/with children; kept children engaged in their interests, played with and did fun activities like arts & crafts; Drs. appointments, trips to the park, zoo, museum and libraries. Bath & bed-time and recipe baking with the children, school/camp/day care pick-up/drop off. My skills and experience will allow me to provide a supervised, safe and stable environment for your loved ones. I look forward to meet or speak with you over the phone.
