I am a professional nanny with many years experience with infants, young children and teens. For many years I was a stay at home mom, but now my children are getting older and independent. I have a joyful home that I share which my husband almost 30 years and my son 21 in college, and my daughter 16. I loved being home which my children and aside from my affection for them, I have gained a wealth of knowledge in health and welfare. I am a very responsible loving and conscientious caregiver. The safety of children in my care is most important and essential. I have nurtured babies, feeding, diapering, bathing and all manner of care. I have safely driven children to and from school, activities and outings.I have kept complex household schedules, prepped and cooked delicious and nutritious meals, and cleaned up. I have helped out with pets, run errands, gone grocery shopping, laundry and light house keeping. Actives I enjoy doing with children are all about being physically active outdoors, hiking on trails, exploring nature, playing in creeks and going to the beach, pool, zoo, or just playing at the playground. It’s great fun making couch forts on rainy days and baking cookies. Being creative with crafts and painting works of art for quiet time activities. I try to encourage responsibility in children by having them help clean up their toys and seeing the value in being a good helper. I discourage screens and encourage books. I love reading to children and teaching them about the world. Mostly I strive for FUN! I have a special needs child and I have spent many years in specialized therapies. I have developed a very intuitive and sensitive nature in dealing whith my child’s disability. It has been the center of our lives 24/7. I understand the patience and nuance that is required when working and striving for important developmental milestones. I have completed two parent training courses at The Yale child Study Center, New Haven.

Chrysa is a wonderful nanny and such a pleasure to work with. She is always kind, reliable, and on time, and our kids absolutely love her. We always feel comfortable and confident having her care for our children. She goes above and beyond to help with extra kid-related things around the house. We are so grateful to have her and highly recommend her to any family!

Hi, I'm shelly. I'm 28 years old and currently a nursing student. I have some availability in my schedule and decided to get back into nannying. I've been off of Sittercity for a couple years, hence my bare profile! But I used to babysit/ nanny kids ranging from ages one and up for years. I also have references available.

Aarin was fantastic! She had a really calming presence with my daughter and seemed caring but professional. When I got home the house was tidier than I left it and my daughter was all smiles. Aarin was really prompt and clear in all our scheduling communications, which I appreciated. Definitely recommend!

I have been CPR trained and have gone through first aide training by the Red Cross. I am also versed on nut allergies due to my nieces who are highly allergic. I have a clean driving record (never been in an accident or received a ticket). I also have character/work references to share. I am available to work early weekday mornings. Also, available on Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons from 3pm on. I do have some flexibility to swap out a different day of the week for the afternoons, if needed. Available usually any night of the week as well. Thanks for your time and I hope to hear from you soon! Best, Michele mmri4@verizon.net 914-769-2433(H) 914-806-2371(C)

Michele is an absolute gem! She quickly became one of our baby's favorite people between her calm demeanor and how earnestly she engages with him. She is incredibly helpful, knowledgeable, and proactive. We are very lucky to have met Michele and highly recommend her!

I worked full-time with six different lovely family and 8 splendid children -two baby-for seven years both in San Francisco and Istanbul, Turkey. I am a university graduate. I have experienced to teach and also learn a lot from children with love, respect, happiness and adventure. I love to take care of babies and children because I had beautiful and unexplained days that I get to witness: the first smiles, the small conquests of crawling, the big smiles, the unconditional love they show in every discovery. All these were extraordinary special to me. During my experience, I also performed light housekeeping, including cooking,and laundry for family. I managed the schedules of children including picnic, walk and play on the parks. Please feel free to contact with me. I can share my references information or recommendation letter. I am looking forward to hearing from you. Have a wonderful day :) Note: I am full vaccinated and boosted

Kader cares for our 5 month old infant. She is extremely attentive when caring for our son, always playing with him and engaging him. She always has a warm, calm, and pleasant attitude and we can really tell that our son responds well to her. We feel confident that our son is happy, safe, and well cared for with Kader. Kader is also extremely professional, responds to communications in a timely manner, and has been fantastic to work with overall. We would highly recommend her.

Jamila is great, highly recommended! She is very sweet and professional. She was great with my 15 month old son, and she made us feel very comfortable leaving him with her. Safety is a top priority for her, and she was also very attentive to my son's needs. My son was clean, happy and even in a new set of clothes when we returned from our outing. She was punctual to the babysitting appointment, and she was also very understanding when we were running late getting back. There were absolutely no problems at all.

Hello, Educated and experienced nanny/babysitter former preschool teacher searching for an afterschool position or a weekend position with a family. I just retired from healthcare and hopefully I will go on to earn my masters in Nutrition and Dietetics and continue with a new career in nutrition. I was originally a provider in primary care and I burnt out from the first career thus taking a long sabbatical before starting my next career. As for babysitting, I Prefer multiples. Parents will always have anxiety so that is understandable. I repeat, Anxiety is understandable and acceptable- you are not crazy. It is my job to lessen your anxiety by being COMPETENT and RELIABLE. Education: Williams College and the University of Pennsylvania. Why babysitting? I need some positive energy in my life, what better way to add that then a couple of children running circles around me while giggling? I babysat my friend’s kids not long ago and we “flew” to Australia- his sister was the pilot, we saw the kangaroos, koalas, snakes, but they were not into the idea of us snorkeling in the Great Barrier Reef wich was my idea. Go figure 🤷🏽♀️ I love kids, I don’t have any because I know that they are not toys. They are living breathing human beings who need nurturing for appropriate emotional growth. I love that they will turn anything into a game. I prefer that you perform your own background check with reliable source (Sterling is great). Because otherwise this app will charge every month. Sterling is the best for background checks. That is what medical companies use. I don’t do drugs or smoke. Wine when out to dinner. Rate is flexible: depends on what you need me to do. Very flexible! I don’t own a car as I had a company car and am VIP with Uber. I can get to you just fine. But if you need me to drive the kids around you need to provide the car. I do drive and have a solid driving record. It is safer this way. You don’t want your child in an unreliable vehicle. Transportation can be worked out. Contact me if interested. 413-597-1884
