I’m a childhood education major college student with a genuine passion for caring for kids, bringing three years of babysitting experience with children of all ages, specially infants to 12-year-olds. I’m creative, adaptable, and always ready to bring fun, learning into any home I step into. With a strong background in planning engaging activities, helping with homework, and smoothly adjusting to new routines or environments, I aim to make every child feel safe and supported. I’m also great with pets, can drive to any location, and handle school pickups or drop-offs with ease. If you’re looking for someone who truly enjoys helping kids thrive, I’d love to be that person for your family.

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!

I would be a great babysitter because I have years of hands-on experience caring for my siblings since they were born. That experience has taught me patience, responsibility, and how to handle children of different ages with confidence and care. I’m comfortable managing routines, helping with homework, preparing meals, and making sure kids feel safe and supported. I also have my own transportation, so I’m able to drive children to school, activities, or fun outings like the park or library. I love being active and creative, and I’m willing to plan engaging activities to keep kids entertained. I can “act like a kid” when it’s time to play, which helps me connect with children, but I also know when to be responsible and maintain structure. In addition, I can cook and clean, which allows me to support parents by keeping the home tidy and preparing simple, healthy meals. Overall, I am dependable, fun, nurturing, and helpful someone both kids and parents can trust.
