Hello! I am looking for a full time position as I transition from working for the Department of Education. I am enrolled in remote classes at The City College of New York, working on my Bilingual Childhood Education BA. I have a very friendly, welcoming, and nurturing personality. I am an older sister, we have an 9 year gap which, of course, deemed me her personal (un)official babysitter. I also have both professional and personal experience with infants. I also lived with a close family and was closely involved in caring for her twin infants during their first 18 months, supporting and implementing routines and development. I am comfortable and connect with all ages. I love parks, museums, and anything outdoors! I am open to answer any questions so we can get to know each other further.

Yamelis has been an exceptional nanny for our infant, and we feel incredibly fortunate to have found her. From day one, she has shown genuine warmth, patience, and attentiveness. She is highly reliable, always punctual, and communicates clearly about our baby’s day, including feedings, naps, and milestones. Yamelis creates a calm, nurturing environment that makes our child feel safe and happy. She is knowledgeable about infant development and engages our baby with age-appropriate activities that encourage growth and curiosity. We fully trust her judgment and care. Any family would be lucky to have Yamelis as their nanny.

I’m also a mother to an adorable 2 year old. I consider myself a kind, reliable, responsible, and attentive individual. I’m currently pursuing my Master's Degree in Early Childhood Education, as I have a passion for working with children. I’m bilingual, I speak both English and Spanish fluently. I'm also CPR, First Aid & AED certified. I’m available for occasional evenings/date nights and weekend opportunities. Thank you!

Lina showed up early, took detailed notes on our routines, and expertly handled a newborn and toddler and their bedtimes. She even gave us some advice on what worked best in her experience. Lina is incredibly flexible and helpful. Highly recommend!

During her time with us, Lucy was responsible for caring for our young children, meal prep, light housework, and accompanying us on activities. She was consistently punctual, reliable, and attuned to our children’s needs. Her abilities to remain positive and calm, while keeping kids engaged and creating a nurturing environment consistently fostered a sense of security, joy, and trust. Our family absolutely adores her, and we always felt confident they were safe and well cared for. She became an important member of our family, and we continue to remain close. I would not hesitate to hire her again and whole heartedly recommend her to any family looking for a trustworthy and caring nanny!

Hello, my name is Kristen! Hi there! My name is Kristen, and I’m a college graduate with over 11 years of hands-on babysitting experience. I’ve cared for children of all ages—from infants to pre-teens—and truly love creating a safe, nurturing, and fun environment for kids to grow and explore. Over the years, I’ve developed a deep understanding of child development, communication, and patience, and I’m always happy to help with homework, crafts, outdoor play, and bedtime routines.

I have been working with children since I was 16 years old from ages 4 months- 12 years old. I grew up as one of the oldest to many cousins and loved going to work with my mother who was a teacher, which is where my passion started. I started babysitting at 16 and have been working in childcare programs since 2019. I started at a daycare in 2019 working with children from age 5 months to 13 years old. I worked at a special needs pre-K for two years and I am now working as a prek teacher’s assistant in an elementary school. I have also part-time worked with a 19-year-old with Rhett syndrome. I enjoy providing engaging activities where children can also learn through play! I have my CPR and first aid certificate. I’m looking for a full-time position and would be available to start mid June. I am looking forward to speaking to you!!
