Brenda R., Babysitter in Valatie, NY 12184 with 12 years of paid experience

Hello. My name is Brenda and I live in East Greenbush. I am looking for an opportunity as an educational aide/tutor or to provide child care. My experience includes providing child care and tutoring for many families. I also worked with HVCC students at the Disability Services Center for one year after college. My duties included helping students who needed special accommodations or assistance to take tests and exams. I am a responsible, easygoing, and positive person who enjoys spending time with children and watching them learn and grow. When I visit my family, I spend a lot of quality time with my young niece and nephews. They never want me to leave, which makes me happy and sad. If you think I would be a good match for your family, feel free to contact me.

Barbara M., Babysitter in Valatie, NY 12184 with 10 years of paid experience

I truly love being a nanny and sitter because caring for children has always been a natural part of who I am. I find joy in creating a safe, nurturing environment where kids can grow, explore, and feel supported. Every child is unique, and I value the chance to bring out their creativity, confidence, and curiosity through play, learning, and consistency. I have decades of hands-on experience raising my own children as well as working with families in the U.S. and abroad. Over the years, I have cared for children of all ages from newborns and toddlers to school aged kids and teens with an emphasis on patience, positive communication, and encouragement. I understand the balance between structure and fun, and I know how to adapt to each family’s needs.

Barbara has been an exceptional babysitter for our 13-month-old. She is incredibly easy to work with, professional, responsive, and a natural caregiver. What stands out most is her intuition—she knows how to read and respond to our child's cues, especially when things don't go according to plan. We have complete trust in Barbara and always feel comfortable knowing our child is in her care. She is dependable, attentive, and genuinely invested in providing the best care possible. We highly recommend Barbara to any family looking for a skilled, trustworthy, and compassionate caregiver.

Norine was wonderful with my 5 children and they all had great things to say about her. We felt very comfortable leaving our children in her care and hope to work with her again. She has great communication and understanding, patient and kind and able to keep them focused. They especially loved her cooking..which is great since I don't regularly cook. :)

Melissa C., Babysitter in Valatie, NY 12184 with 30 years of paid experience

My name is Melissa and I have over 30 years experience caring for children of all ages (newborn - 14 years). I have had the privilege to care for children in private homes as well as in daycare and after school settings. I truly enjoy creating fun and creative activities that encourage individuality and imagination. I am also a licensed veterinary technician in several states and have been first aid, CPR, and MAT certified. I do not have a background check on here since I am licensed in NYS. This allows you to look me up on the NYS Office of Professions which is updated regularly and will show any misconduct or criminal activities if I were to have them. I currently have the pleasure of helping to care for my 1yr old grandson and my 2yr old autistic nephew.

Cadence M., Babysitter in Valatie, NY 12184 with 4 years of paid experience

Hi! I'm Cadence, and I'm a student at Pace University studying early childhood/childhood education. With four years of nannying experience, I've had the pleasure of working with both special needs and neurotypical children, as well as in an after-school program for a special needs school. I'm passionate about creating engaging, fun, and educational experiences for kids, and I love spending time outdoors-keeping up with their energy is one of my favorite parts of the job! This summer, I'll be living in NYC and am looking for a full-time nannying job once my college classes end in May. If you think this could be a good fit, message me and we can set up an interview. I'm happy to provide references upon request. Looking forward to connecting with you!

Shayla  D., Babysitter in Valatie, NY 12184 with 4 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Shayla! I'm 20 years old and have about 4 years of experience working with children, including time in an after-school program! I live in Columbia County, I'm CPR and BLS certified, and will have an Associate's degree in Arts and Science this May! I also will be starting nursing school this fall! I currently work as a Patient Care Technician on a Mother-Baby unit, so caring for infants and supporting families is something I'm very familiar with! Growing up surrounded by nieces, nephews, and younger cousins has given me lots of hands-on experience keeping kids engaged and entertained! I love planning fun activities like outdoor play, arts and crafts, games, and story time. I'm also happy to help with light housekeeping like tidying up, dishes, and organizing toys. My goal is to create a safe, positive environment where kids can have fun and parents can feel at ease. I'm responsible, dependable, and love building positive connections with families I work with. Maybe we can work something out!
