Meet Lydia

  • Comfortable with pets

Hello all! My name is Lydia and I am seeking babysitting jobs in the New York City metro area. I am a recent transplant to Manhattan from New Hampshire. While I am undergoing the process to become licensed with New York City's DOE, I am available to babysit your children at your place, or my place- a spacious studio in Manhattan. I possess 1.5 years of former childcare experience within an early childhood center. I also possess 1.5 years of contract teaching experience for an elementary and middle school as well. Additionally, I am currently enrolled in a Graduate Degree program to receive my Masters in Library and Information Science. I enjoy instructing and babysitting children aged 0 and up. I believe in total engagement with young children, which means meeting them at their level with playtime on the floor or at a table and no distractions with technological devices. Read more I like to engage children with dramatic play, manipulatives such as puzzles, arts and crafts, story time, and water play. Also, I am a mother to 2 wonderful children, aged 4 and 7. I can provide references as well. Also, feel free to browse my professional online portfolio to learn more about me and my previous experience. Thank you for the consideration!
