I am a 2023 graduate from Rutgers School of Engineering where I studied biomedical engineering. I was raised in an African home where kids were always running around and as the oldest it was my duty to take care of them, even from a young age. Working with kids has always come naturally to me and child development has always been an interest of mine. I am looking for a long term position with consistent hours (I am okay with a flexible schedule). I have been on Sitter City since 2020 and have worked in many different kinds of families. I have experience working with infants, toddlers, as well as children K-12 at a total of 5 long term positions. I have worked with children with learning disabilities and families with multiple children (up to 3). I have also worked as an art teacher at my local gallery for classes of up to 20 students ages 5-13. My services include the following: - Cooking (simple meal prep to full meals) - Cleaning (light clean up, organization, laundry) - Assisting with homework afterschool - Engaging in fun activities (arts & crafts, sports, music) - Driving (school pickup / driving to and from activities) - Early childhood development (reading, potty training, tummy time, etc) - Infant care (changing diapers, making/feeding bottle, burping, etc.) I am comfortable with pets (I have a 5 year old pomsky at home) and I have my own car ( a 2021 Nissan Sentra with full safety features). I am a non smoked, vaccinated & boosted for COVID-19, and I am CPR certified and trained in First Aid. I hope to be a good fit for you and your family and I hope to hear from you soon help your kids with homework, and even sing them lullabies. I am also comfortable with pets (I have a pomsky at home). I own my own car, am comfortable driving with children, am a nonsmoker, COVID 19 vaccinated (and boosted), as well as CPR certified. I look forward to meeting you and your family and hear back from you soon!

Hello! For the past 6 years, I’ve had the pleasure of working as a nanny, a role I am genuinely passionate about. With years of hands-on experience caring for children from a variety of backgrounds, I’ve developed a deep understanding of how to adapt to all types of family dynamics. Building genuine connections with both parents and children has been one of the most rewarding aspects of my job, and I've gained valuable insight and wisdom along the way. As your nanny, I recognize that I’m stepping into a very personal part of your life. That’s why I prioritize honesty, open communication, and mutual respect—so we can work together to create a nurturing, comfortable, and consistent environment. Children are like sponges—they absorb the energy and behavior around them. It’s important to lead by example, and address any obstacles with compassion, positivity, and patience. Every kid deserves a warm, enthusiastic, and attentive caregiver to guide them through life’s important moments. I’ve worked with infants, toddlers, and elementary-aged children. I’m also confident managing multiple children at once. Pets in the home? Always a bonus! Additionally, I am happy to assist with light housework, cooking, and transportation to and from extracurricular activities. I’ve also traveled to/with the family when they needed an extra pair of hands on vacation or a work trip. Your family’s routines and preferences are important to me—you can trust that I will always respect your parenting style and household rules. If there are any concerns, boundaries, or preferences, I’m here to listen and adapt accordingly. I have several references from the wonderful families I’ve had the pleasure of working with through Sittercity, and I’m happy to provide their contact information upon request. I also have a detailed resume available if you’d like to learn more about my experience. Currently, I’m looking for a part-time or (preferably) full-time live-out position. I’m based in Brooklyn, but am open to commuting if we’re a great match! Feel free to message me if you have any questions, and I look forward to hearing from you soon! 💕
