I hired Kabya as a babysitter for my children, and she was wonderful. She was always on time, very kind, and easy to communicate with. My kids enjoyed spending time with her and felt comfortable around her right away. It was such a relief knowing they were in good hands. I would gladly hire her again and highly recommend her to other families.

Gabriella R., Child Care in Amsterdam, NY 12010 with 9 years of paid experience

Hi! I’m Gabriella Riccio — 26 years old, a certified Teacher Assistant, and a psychology graduate with a minor in Sociology. I currently work as a Teacher Assistant at an elementary school, where I support students academically and emotionally throughout the day. My background includes over 9 years of experience working with children ages 6 months to 13 years in daycare centers, schools, afterschool programs, summer camps, private tutoring, and babysitting for date nights, overnights, weddings, and even travel nannying. I’m passionate about helping kids learn, grow, and feel supported, whether through creative play, academic help, or just being a steady, caring presence. I’m CPR/First Aid certified, have experience with children with developmental differences, and love helping with homework, tutoring (especially English, history, and elementary math/science), and hands-on enrichment projects. I also bring along a big portfolio of crafts, activities, and learning games that make afterschool time fun and engaging! I’m currently available for: • After-school care and weekend babysitting • School breaks and holidays (winter, spring, and random school closures) • Summer break help • Homework help and tutoring • Date nights, workdays, and overnights • Light housekeeping and meal prep • Pet care and walks I have my own vehicle, though it’s not in perfect condition but up to date and inspected I prefer not to do a lot of travel in my own car — it’s still reliable for getting me to and from work, and do have a booster seat available but I’d be more comfortable using a family car for driving children but short distances would be fine. Outside of work, I love spending time with my family and dog, playing ukulele, writing poetry, and getting involved in theater and the arts. I’d love the opportunity to support your family and bring positivity, structure, and creativity to your child’s day!

I have a degree in Early Education and 19 years classroom teaching experience with children from infancy to 5th grade.

I Renewed my CPR and First Aid training in October 2025 and have had MAT training. Additionally, I raised one child of my own, who is an educated, very successful adult. For the last several years I have been a Nanny to children ranging from infancy to 9 years old. The children and I enjoy hands-on learning while doing outdoor exploration and thru indoor things like art and food experiences. I have references and I am available for an interview. Evette Woods

Hi! My name is Paola, and I’m from Brazil. I have experience as an Au Pair in Saratoga Springs, where I cared for two wonderful girls, aged 3 and 11. Before that, I worked as a kindergarten teacher in a bilingual school in Brazil, teaching subjects like math, English, and science. I truly love working with children and feel that I learn just as much from them as they do from me. I’m patient, creative, responsible, and dedicated, and I always strive to create a fun and safe environment for the kids I care for. I’m also a big animal lover! My previous host family had two dogs, and I absolutely adored spending time with them. In my free time, I enjoy exploring new activities with children, planning educational and creative games, and helping them grow while having fun. I would love the opportunity to help your family, bringing enthusiasm, care, and positivity!
