Hi! I've been a nanny and babysitter for over 14 years, caring for children from just a few weeks old up to age 12. What started as helping out a co-worker occasionally has grown into something I've done alongside my professional life for over a decade-and I genuinely love it. Most recently, I spent 7 years with one Brooklyn family, caring for their son from age 5 through 12. I've also worked with babies, toddlers, and sibling combos, including kids with autism and mood-related challenges. I'm confident juggling different needs, ages, and personalities-whether that's helping a toddler through potty training or guiding a 10-year-old through homework frustration. I'm comfortable with: -Infants, toddlers, and older children (including multiples) -Special needs (including mild autism and mood disorders) -Doctor visits -Daytime outings, pickups/drop-offs -Cooking, light cleaning, bedtime, bath time, homework help -Pet-friendly homes (I love animals!) I freelance & work remotely in sales and marketing, which gives me a flexible schedule. Whether you need regular care or backup support, my goal is to make your life easier and help your child feel safe, supported, and seen.

Hello! My name is Razia, and I’m a proud native New Yorker with over 10 years of professional childcare experience. I am CPR & First Aid certified, college educated, and have cared for infants, toddlers, and school-aged children. Families consistently describe me as patient, caring, energetic, fun-loving, and trustworthy. I am passionate about creating a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment where children can thrive while making daily routines easier and stress-free for parents. Currently, I work with a wonderful family in Forest Hills, caring for two children (ages 12 and 6) and managing their household from start to finish. I oversee morning routines, school preparation, homework, meals, baths, bedtime, pet care for a cat and dog, errands, and overall household organization. I take pride in keeping the home running smoothly while providing consistent guidance, attention, and encouragement to the children. Infant & Newborn Care: I am experienced in preparing formulas, sterilizing bottles, maintaining feeding and sleep schedules, diapering, infant laundry, baths, and baby-proofing the home. I focus on early learning activities, maintaining a clean and safe environment, and supporting healthy growth and routines while providing attentive, loving care. Toddler Care: I assist with meals, snacks, potty training, baths, tidying toys, and creative play. I organize educational outings to libraries, museums, bookstores, playgrounds, and play centers, as well as age-appropriate classes and playdates to support social skills, independence, and curiosity. School-Age Care: I manage school pickups and drop-offs, transportation to after-school activities, homework guidance, snack and meal prep, outdoor play, and trips to parks, zoos, and museums. I help children develop responsibility, self-confidence, and healthy routines while balancing structure with fun and enrichment. I am available Monday through Friday, with flexibility for weekends, and can travel to Manhattan and Queens. I provide hands-on, individualized care, creating a loving, structured, and engaging environment for children while giving parents peace of mind that every need—childcare and household—is thoughtfully managed. I would love to bring my experience, energy, and dedication to your family. I am happy to provide recent outstanding references. You can reach me directly at 📞 917-272-8620.

I also enjoy cooking, and I’m able to prepare nutritious and balanced meals for the kids if needed. I have additional experience with various families taking care of children of all ages. I am a patient, responsible, and trustworthy person who enjoys working with children, learning about them and helping them grow.

Caring for children has always been something I genuinely enjoy, and my passion for working with young minds has only grown through both personal and professional experiences. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Psychology with a minor in Health, and I’m planning to pursue a Master’s in Social Work. My background includes caregiving for family friends' children and working as a Social Emotional Learning teacher for children with special needs—experiences that have taught me patience, empathy, and the importance of meeting each child where they are. Over the past couple of years, I’ve worked with kids of all ages—from infants to teens. I love engaging children through board games, music, educational activities, and creative play. I am also CPR and First Aid certified. More than anything, I want to be a positive part of a child’s life—helping guide and support them as they grow into the best version of themselves. Starting with my two younger brothers growing up. I have been a trusted babysitter for other adults in my life such as my neighbors, and family friends children all along the ages of 3-14 years old.
