Hello Parents! Thank you for visiting my profile. Note: I am currently available to provide childcare on Halloween, Indigenous Peoples Day, Veterans Day, and Christmas break My name is Amanda! I am a currently a freelance pet sitter, and babysitter of 10 plus years. As a New York Native I know how to navigate through the MTA system and the neighborhoods of each borough. I am CPR/First Aid Certified and a non-smoker. I am currently available to provide care on school holidays, school breaks, weekends, and weekday evenings after 7 pm. One of my passions is caring for children, and animals. I have over 10 years of babysitter/nanny experience with children of all ages. Caring for children is a passion I will continue for as long as I can. I love getting to know children, watching them grow, and supporting their important milestones. Along with my childcare experience, I have 10 years of experience working as a pet sitter. My dream is to open a pet care, and babysitting company. Why not both! I have been caring for children since the age of 12. I started babysitting my younger brother at a young age, as I grew older I transitioned into caring for my younger cousins, and working as a babysitter/nanny. In addition, I have experience caring for children with ADHD, ADD, & Anxiety. Since 2019, I have worked with Camp Shiloh as a Counselor in Training, Mentor, and Volunteer. I was also a Camper there for several years as a kid, and it’s one of my the few places I call home. A fun fact about me, I love Harry Potter, and comic books. Some of the fun things I love to do with children are making art, building blocks, engaging in activities around the city, read books, dancing, baking, playing board games, going to parks, playing sports, playing with toys & more. In my free time I like to swim, skateboard, listen to music, learn new things, write, and ground myself in nature. Children love me as their babysitter because I’m empathetic, open minded, committed, and pretty funny. Your child’s safety is my upmost importance, and of course having fun. References can be provided. I wear masks at all times, and I carry hand sanitizer with me. Note: I am aware I have a two star review, if you would like to know more about why that review is on my page I am more than happy to explain the situation. Unfortunately, the parent never had the chance to meet nor interview me.

Hello Moms & Dads :)- Please take a moment to read all 🌹 My availability is 8am-6pm M-Th. Fridays I hold meetings and I am available for a weekend on occasion or special events when discussed in advance. A little about me 😊My name is Stephanie, born & raised in NYC. I was studying law in college when I ended up having my child and realized my passion laid with children and decided to pursue a degree in childhood education instead. I am a developmental specialist who is blessed to work remotely with the DOH while being a career nanny over the last 20 years. I have extensive experience with premature infants-8yr olds. Both typical & neuro divergent 🌈and have worked with families of all different cultures/beliefs. I am well versed in the milestones a child should achieve and as a caregiver I implement age appropriate goals to make sure that I work with each child on all their domains of development including their cognitive, social, language, academic (if applicable) and physical; although safety & FUN is always my #1 priority. Working with children requires patience, empathy, being passionate about it and understanding that every child is different in their own way. 🍃 I believe that good communication between parents and all caregivers is essential so that everyone is on the same page. As a mom myself I understand how difficult it can be specially for first time parents to separate from their child and feel like they are "missing out" or having a sense of guilt kick in and I'm here to make the process easier and provide ease. For parents with multiple children struggling to find alone or couple time, I am there to insure your mind is at ease with regards to your children’s care while you get some much needed girl/self/couples time. I am CPR certified and update it every 2 years. I am a non smoker. I don't do corporal punishment hence I am not a good fit with parents that do.. love pets 🐶🐱 Best of luck to everyone in their search- And Enjoy every moment. Your child will never be the age that they are today & those small moments are precious 💎. Don’t compare them to other children & always notice their strengths 💪 for there is only one of them ❤️❤️ 🌸🌸Note: I homeschool my teen who will at times accompany me and be doing his school work on the computer for the most part. This hasn’t been an issue in the past as can be seen by my reviews but completely understand the parents who are not comfortable despite the transparency.

I’m an experienced childcare professional who has babysat for many families over the years, caring for children from newborns and infants through school age. Because I’ve worked with so many different families and age groups, I’m comfortable stepping into a new household, learning a family’s routines and expectations, and building rapport with children quickly. I previously worked for a babysitting agency providing childcare for families both in their homes and at hotels. This gave me experience working with families I was often meeting for the first time and helped me become very adaptable and confident helping children feel comfortable with a new caregiver. I understand that parents may be leaving their child with someone new, so I make communication, safety, and helping both the child and parents feel at ease a priority. Many of my babysitting relationships have also developed naturally through my professional childcare positions. While working as an after-school educator and coach, several families whose children I worked with began hiring me privately for babysitting. The same happened while I worked at an infant center caring for babies ages 6 weeks to 15 months. I really value that families who saw how I interacted with and cared for their children trusted me to continue caring for them outside of those settings. My broader childcare experience includes working as a full-time nanny, infant teacher, baby nurse at a postpartum resort, ABA therapist, special needs camp counselor, and after-school educator and coach. This has given me experience with everything from feeding, bottles, diapering, soothing, naps, and bedtime routines to play, homework help, outings, and caring for multiple children. I am also EMT certified and previously served for six years as a medic in the U.S. Army. My medical background has provided extensive training in first aid, emergency response, and safety. I’m warm, patient, dependable, and very hands-on with children. One of my strengths is being able to build rapport quickly, which is especially important when babysitting children who may not know me yet. I want children to feel safe and comfortable with me while also having fun, whether we’re playing, reading, doing an activity, or simply following their normal evening routine.

I love children and have 10 years of experience caring for infants, toddlers and older children. I enjoy helping out with homework and teaching Spanish and ensuring they are safe and happy. I have excellent references.

Hi, I'm Seun! Fair warning — if you hire me, there's a good chance your kitchen may become a culinary lab. We once recreated edible dirt using crushed Oreos and gummy worms, and it was a hit. I've been working with children since high school and have loved every moment of it. I believe kids see the world with a curiosity and wonder that is truly special, and I feel privileged to play a role in their growth into their own autonomous selves. This work has taught me the rewards of being present, the value of play, and the power of creativity — lessons I carry with me every day. I believe the best moments with children happen when you lean into their interest, and I've built my entire approach around that idea. I've been working with children since high school — starting with families of teachers and growing through word-of-mouth ever since. I'm experienced with toddlers through preteens, comfortable with multiples, and tend to build long-term relationships with the families I work with. Day-to-day I can help with morning and nighttime routines, meal prep, homework, driving to activities, and keeping kids engaged with screen-free games, outdoor play, and playdates. I'm currently in medical school on a scholar's Year for research, which means I bring a clinical understanding of child safety, health, and development to every family I work with — and I have genuine flexibility in my schedule for the foreseeable year. I also volunteer as a tutor supporting students from elementary school through the college application process. I'm available to start immediately and would love to meet your family. Feel free to reach out!
