Sittercity helps Riverside families find the best child care providers

Hello! I'm Amanda. I'm an actress and I work as a teacher part time. I am also an EMT, with a speciality in the care of infants and children! I live in Westchester, and am looking for occasional babysitting work! I have been working with kids for 20 years. I'd love to connect and see if I might be a good fit for your family!

I love babysitting because I enjoy working with kids. I have a lot of experience with babysitting. I have two younger siblings and spent a lot of time taking care of them when we were younger.

Hi! I am semi retired. I currently work at the Hudson County Montessori School on Quaker Road here in New Rochelle as a substitute teacher. I work primarily with the toddler and primary school kids. I just love working there and am daily amazed on the Montessori approach to education and how self reliant physically and emotionally children can be when it is expected of them. That being said, I am still an “Italian Grandma” at heart and am great at making kids feel safe and loved while in my care. I just don’t give in about them putting away their stuff like I did when my kids were young. I have a background in education with a BA from Marist college and am certified to teach in the state of Florida. I worked as a camp counselor and lifeguard through high school and college and substituted on and off for years while running my own business for over 20 years. I love kids but what’s even more important is that kids love me! I have a very enthusiastic and jovial personality that kids young and older just seen the love. I have raised my own two children and am pretty savvy on the games teens can play. My kids still like me lol! I am interested in Babysitting , I’m free most evenings and weekends.

I became a professional child-caregiver because I love being part of a child's developmental growth. For me, it's a privilege to teach and learn from children! For five years, I worked in a daycare with children whose ages ranged from six weeks to 5 years of age while also babysitting for the occasional date nights during the weekends. Through my employment, I obtained First-Aid and CPR certifications. I also attended various workshops and training that taught me the importance of providing a safe learning environment for all children. After leaving the daycare, I became a full-time nanny and will continue to be one as I complete my Master's Degree in Education at Sarah Lawrence College. During my free time, I enjoy spending time with my two children and my cuddly Dachshund dog!

I have experience taking care multiple children. Also I just don't take care of them I like to help them with homework, teach them something new, getting to know their personality. So.e children can enjoy reading. And others dancing. Also I can drive them to school or any activities they have. I am studying to be a nurse and one day to be a nurse for kids

Hello, My name is Nellis Gramajo and I just graduated with my bachelor's degree in Early Childhood Education. I am a very fun, engaging and energetic person who loves working with children.

"I have several years of babysitting experience, caring for children of various ages, from infants to pre-teens. My training includes CPR and First Aid certification, which I believe are crucial for handling any unforeseen situations that may arise. Additionally, I've completed courses in child development and early childhood education to better understand the needs of the children I care for. I became a caregiver because of my natural inclination towards nurturing and supporting children's growth. I find immense joy in being a part of their formative years and contributing positively to their development. Witnessing their milestones and being a positive influence in their lives is incredibly rewarding. What makes me good at caregiving is my patience, creativity, and adaptability. I am patient in handling challenging situations and understanding each child's unique needs. I love coming up with creative activities that are both fun and educational, tailored to each child's interests. Adaptability is key in childcare, and I excel in adjusting to different environments and meeting the diverse needs of the children under my care. Overall, my passion for childcare, coupled with my training, experience, and personal qualities, allows me to provide a safe, nurturing, and enriching environment for the children I look after. --- Feel free to modify the response to better align with your personal experiences and qualifications!

I am 38 years old. What sets me apart from everyone, is that I get them. Them meaning children. Parents of children that are typically shy, and not really interested in playing with anyone new— are dumbfounded after they hear their shy child with me. We click. It just happens. Sincerely, I am the most honest, transparent, respectful, resourceful, and reliable person I know. I am genuine. I assume nothing. I ask lot of questions. And more than that, I am hands down the most fun. I am known for screaming “Please hurry guys! There is a movie star in this house! Come look!” (It’s me looking at my self in the mirror. Hahaha) If you want to make a kid laugh, I say “give me 5” and quickly pull my hand away. It gets them every time. My best friend’s children FaceTime me (and I learned I’m the only friend that gets these calls lolol) daily. I don’t know what it is. But I have it. It could be that I talk about everything with them. From their farts to poop… It is so important for them to be able to laugh at themselves. More, I want children to feel confident and comfortable telling me (or mom and dad) anything: if there are worms in their poop, butt is itchy, etc. I’m not a fan of the kitchen. Dole peach cups, and water or an Honest flavored drink. I would love to have an approved meal that I may order from door dash (on me) for them. If you look at my Facebook page you will see how I am with kids. I have been babysitting since high school. Babysitting 8-12 girls from 8am-2pm. During summer break from college. And we often went to the park, often packed with more kids. Communication is every second and it means everything. My attention was on 10 girls under 6. I managed the chaos, made sure their chins were always up, and I could see their teeth. Not once did I meet a child that I could not reach. When the parents tell me, you are the kids’ favorite - I can’t imagine someone that is better with children than myself. ☺️ I love sciences: anatomy and physiology, and microbiology. I will correct their English, if they use a word incorrectly. Believe it or not, children don’t mind being corrected. It is the parents that chime in: ‘it’s okay, school is over’. For example, if someone uses an adjective when an adverb is appropriate. The difference between “may” and “can”. And when to use “I” versus me.” I am super inquisitive. If I do t know the answer, Google will :).
