Makayla D., Babysitter in Melrose, NY 12121 with 2 years of paid experience

I just moved here last year from Cleveland OH, I am going to be a junior in college but doing it remotely. I have very flexible hours and I am very good at communicating with parents. Since I was a young girl, I have always been babysitting/care taking for my neighbors, cousins, siblings and more. In Ohio I was a nanny for 2.5 years for 3 children. I was able to take them to any places, appointments, practices, and more that they needed to be at. I also had to cook meals, prepare snacks, help with homework and more. I loved taking the kids I took care of to the park, on walks, or really anything that they wanted to do. Since being in NY I was the Nanny for a family with a 5 and 7 year old. As well as a Nanny for a family with a 6 month old. I am CPR certified and I am studying to be a Physical Therapist at the time. Id love to meet in person or over the phone to discuss more and of course meet you and your child.

Anya S., Babysitter in Melrose, NY 12121 with 7 years of paid experience

Hello there! My name is Anya and I am here to help lighten your load, helping to make your busy schedule a little easier. I'm energetic, responsible, reliable, kind, compassionate, and caring. I have always loved and enjoyed working with children. My experience starts when I was 13 watching not only my niece but my mom’s friends kids. When I turned 17 I started working for the YMCA at an after school program, I worked with the YMCA for 2 years till they unfortunately closed due to the pandemic. During the pandemic I went to school for childhood education. I worked as teaching assistant which included my 7 years of working experience with children. I most recently was a nanny for a family who had an 8 month old and was with them for almost two years. It is something I love to do and am passionate about. Not only do I love caring for children, but I also love helping with things that need to be done around the house. I am willing to help out in anyway I can to make things easier for you and your family.

Kristen P., Babysitter in Melrose, NY 12121 with 7 years of paid experience

I am a graduate student at Russell Sage College studying Nutrition and Dietetics. My school schedule only allows me to babysit on weekends and potentially one day per week (dependent on the semester and day of week). I adore spending time with kids and I have a significant amount of experience in childcare over the last several years. I nannied for a family with a child with down syndrome and have experience as a live-in nanny in Italy. The Italian family had three children, ranging in age from 2 to 8. I have babysat and nannied for several other families as well. I have also spent many years volunteering in a kindergarten classroom and in my free time I worked as a substitute teacher. I love to do crafts, get outdoors and exercise, as well as spending time with animals. I look forward to hearing from you!

Kendra A., Babysitter in Melrose, NY 12121 with 10 years of paid experience

I recently graduated from Russell Sage College with my Bachelors in Health Sciences to move on the graduate school for occupational therapy, throughout my time in college I have had many jobs in child care. These include The Rensselaer County ARC as a camp counselor for children with and without disabilities. The ages at this camp were from 5-25. I also worked at ABC Sports and Fitness at the front desk and in the day care. These children ranged from 9 months to 12 years old and also included children with disabilities. Along with those paid jobs, I have my own brother who is currently 20 years old and has Down syndrome. I am pet friendly, willing to clean, and make meals or snacks.

Hi! My name is Melissa, I am a 28 year old with over five years of childcare experience. I am certified in pediatric CPR/first aid/AED. I graduated from UAlbany in 2022 with a bachelors in biology. What I’m looking for/availability: I’m available any time Sunday, Mondays after 10 am, and evenings the rest of the week (about 5 to 8 pm). I’m looking for occasional babysitting, or maybe a once a week recurring job. More about my experience: I’m most experienced with the 0-2 years old age group, but I have some experience with school age children too. I used to be a full time nanny before my current restaurant job, but since then I’ve been doing occasional babysitting, and also am matched with a 9 year old in the Big Brother Big Sister program! I provide screen-free, enriching care, and I love bringing kids on adventures to libraries, parks, museums, etc. Looking forward to working with families on this site!
