Ashley E., Babysitter in Oceanside, NY 11572 with 5 years of paid experience

Ever since I was a little girl, I have dreamed of becoming a pediatrician. Being around children brings me so much joy, and I genuinely love the energy and happiness they bring into my everyday life. I find great fulfillment in making children smile, helping them feel comfortable and supported, and being someone they can trust and rely on. Building meaningful connections with children and contributing positively to their growth and well-being is something I am truly passionate about. I have always loved babysitting and I've been doing it for about 5 years now. As I transition from my undergraduate studies into medical school, I want to continue babysitting, as it is something that I truly love doing. Babysitting allows me to combine my love for working with children with my desire to make a positive impact in their lives. I look forward to continuing to create a fun, safe, and nurturing environment where children can learn, grow, and make lasting memories.

Ashley is a fantastic babysitter, and my kids adore her. She does an excellent job of keeping children occupied, involved, and happy while maintaining a safe and cheerful atmosphere. My kids are always thrilled to see her and eager to spend time with her. Ashley is kind, responsible, and trustworthy, giving me great peace of mind when she is watching my children. I would strongly suggest her to any family seeking a babysitter. Your child will be safe, well-cared for, and in good hands.

Kiara P., Babysitter in Oceanside, NY 11572 with 4 years of paid experience

Hi, my name is Kiara but I go by Kiwi! I'm a native New Yorker from Brooklyn and I have over 4 years of childcare experience. I worked at a daycare in Queens (Future Sunshine Daycare) part-time, and went full-time after about 6 months as the owner is also a foster mother and needed help with her 3 foster children. I started living-in 4 days a week for about a year while still working for the daycare, thus caring for 8 kids (2 infants aged 4-6 months, 1 toddler aged 3 and 5 older children aged 6-9) along with 2 other alternating workers. I worked there for 2 years alternating between part-time and full-time after the foster children moved on. This passing summer I worked as a camp counselor at a summer camp in Plymouth, Vermont. I worked there throughout the whole summer as a camp counselor monitoring kids ages 4-11. Since then I've been babysitting for different families and providing occasional coverage for workers at the daycare. I am CPR and AED certified for both adults and children, my red cross certification ID is 10VNC1Q.

Kiara (aka “Kiwi”) is wonderful! She's been helping with my son's afterschool care and has been incredibly reliable. Our toddler absolutely loves her. She brings creative activities, keeps him engaged, and brings such a positive energy into our home. We’re so grateful to have found her and couldn’t recommend her more highly!

She is always on time, rarely ever takes days off, and is willing to take on additional tasks in the home such as meal prep and light cleaning. Kari is a positive, caring, respectful person who has experience taking good care of babies through elementary school age children.

Tersit Y., Babysitter in Oceanside, NY 11572 with 5 years of paid experience

I have 5-6 years of experience caring for children from infancy through age 9 and am dedicated to creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where children can learn, grow, and thrive. My background in early childhood development and education has given me a strong understanding of age-appropriate care, learning, and developmental milestones. I enjoy planning activities that encourage creativity, independence, and confidence while providing the structure and consistency children need to feel secure. I genuinely love what I do and value building positive, trusting relationships with both children and their families. My goal is always to provide dependable, compassionate care that gives parents peace of mind and helps children feel supported, happy, and loved.

Tersit was our nanny before our son started preschool. She was great and our son adored her! She was really attentive to his needs and was reliable. He has a bad case of eczema and she was always willing to go the extra mile to prioritize his condition like eliminating certain fabrics and changing her laundry detergent. We wholeheartedly recommend her!

Jheanelle A., Babysitter in Oceanside, NY 11572 with 10 years of paid experience

Hello everyone , name is Jheanelle, and I’m a 27-year-old single mom to a wonderful 6-year-old daughter. I’m currently a nursing student at BMCC and have only two semesters left before graduating. I’ve always had a passion for caring for children. I started babysitting over 10 years ago by watching my nephews, nieces, and neighborhood kids, and eventually began babysitting for other families in my community. Kids naturally gravitate toward me because I’m patient, energetic, and love creating a fun, safe environment where they feel comfortable and supported. As a nursing student, I bring medical knowledge along with years of hands on childcare experience. I’m experienced caring for children of all ages, from newborns to teenagers. I’m comfortable with diaper changes, bottle feeding, potty training, bedtime routines, homework help, preparing simple meals and snacks, arts and crafts, outdoor play, and keeping children engaged while limiting screen time when requested. Your child’s safety is my top priority. I am CPR, First Aid, and BLS certified, and I remain calm and attentive in any situation. As a parent myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your child. I will always care for your little ones with the same patience, kindness, and attention that I give my own daughter. I would love the opportunity to meet your family and become someone your children look forward to seeing while giving you peace of mind whenever you’re away.
