Kiara P., Child Care in Cedarhurst, NY 11516 with 4 years of paid experience

Hi, my name is Kiara but I go by Kiwi! I'm a native New Yorker from Brooklyn and I have over 4 years of childcare experience. I worked at a daycare in Queens (Future Sunshine Daycare) part-time, and went full-time after about 6 months as the owner is also a foster mother and needed help with her 3 foster children. I started living-in 4 days a week for about a year while still working for the daycare, thus caring for 8 kids (2 infants aged 4-6 months, 1 toddler aged 3 and 5 older children aged 6-9) along with 2 other alternating workers. I worked there for 2 years alternating between part-time and full-time after the foster children moved on. This passing summer I worked as a camp counselor at a summer camp in Plymouth, Vermont. I worked there throughout the whole summer as a camp counselor monitoring kids ages 4-11. Since then I've been babysitting for different families and providing occasional coverage for workers at the daycare. I am CPR and AED certified for both adults and children, my red cross certification ID is 10VNC1Q.

Kiara (aka “Kiwi”) is wonderful! She's been helping with my son's afterschool care and has been incredibly reliable. Our toddler absolutely loves her. She brings creative activities, keeps him engaged, and brings such a positive energy into our home. We’re so grateful to have found her and couldn’t recommend her more highly!

Hi Parents, My name is Djane. I have experience caring for both infants and toddlers, and I truly enjoy supporting children’s growth and development in a safe, loving, and engaging environment. I’m responsible, organized, patient, and easygoing. I bring a positive and energetic attitude to my work, and I value creating a calm, nurturing space where children feel comfortable, secure, and happy. Being around kids genuinely brings me joy. I love planning fun and age-appropriate activities, spending time outdoors, going to the park, and encouraging curiosity through play and exploration. I’m also very comfortable with pets and have no restrictions or allergies. I’m looking for a family where I can build a strong, trusting relationship and become a reliable and supportive presence in your daily routine.

Djane worked full time for us watching our 1 year old son. She was very caring and listened to what our family needed and integrated into his routine smoothly. She took him out, made playdates, and kept our house organized by putting things away and cleaning up during naptime. I'd highly recommend her.

Hi! I've been a nanny and babysitter for over 14 years, caring for children from just a few weeks old up to age 12. What started as helping out a co-worker occasionally has grown into something I've done alongside my professional life for over a decade-and I genuinely love it. Most recently, I spent 7 years with one Brooklyn family, caring for their son from age 5 through 12. I've also worked with babies, toddlers, and sibling combos, including kids with autism and mood-related challenges. I'm confident juggling different needs, ages, and personalities-whether that's helping a toddler through potty training or guiding a 10-year-old through homework frustration. I'm comfortable with: -Infants, toddlers, and older children (including multiples) -Special needs (including mild autism and mood disorders) -Doctor visits -Daytime outings, pickups/drop-offs -Cooking, light cleaning, bedtime, bath time, homework help -Pet-friendly homes (I love animals!) I freelance & work remotely in sales and marketing, which gives me a flexible schedule. Whether you need regular care or backup support, my goal is to make your life easier and help your child feel safe, supported, and seen. Please note: Multiple children and/or combined pet care and other duties influence rate. Minimum & Cancellation Policy:
 • 3 hour shift minimum unless otherwise discussed 
• Cancellations within 24 hours: • Under 7 hour shifts: 3 hours minimum paid • 7–9 hour shifts: 4 hours paid • 9+ hour shifts: 50% of originally scheduled hours paid

Wendy came to babysit our 3 month old twice in a hotel room for dinner. She was great! Fantastic communication, punctual, was able to resettle our baby to sleep (no small feat!) and very trustworthy. We will definitely ask her again next time we visit.

Jheanelle A., Child Care in Cedarhurst, NY 11516 with 10 years of paid experience

Hello everyone , name is Jheanelle, and I’m a 27-year-old single mom to a wonderful 6-year-old daughter. I’m currently a nursing student at BMCC and have only two semesters left before graduating. I’ve always had a passion for caring for children. I started babysitting over 10 years ago by watching my nephews, nieces, and neighborhood kids, and eventually began babysitting for other families in my community. Kids naturally gravitate toward me because I’m patient, energetic, and love creating a fun, safe environment where they feel comfortable and supported. As a nursing student, I bring medical knowledge along with years of hands on childcare experience. I’m experienced caring for children of all ages, from newborns to teenagers. I’m comfortable with diaper changes, bottle feeding, potty training, bedtime routines, homework help, preparing simple meals and snacks, arts and crafts, outdoor play, and keeping children engaged while limiting screen time when requested. Your child’s safety is my top priority. I am CPR, First Aid, and BLS certified, and I remain calm and attentive in any situation. As a parent myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your child. I will always care for your little ones with the same patience, kindness, and attention that I give my own daughter. I would love the opportunity to meet your family and become someone your children look forward to seeing while giving you peace of mind whenever you’re away.

Lauren P., Child Care in Cedarhurst, NY 11516 with 18 years of paid experience

Its been a long pandemic, I am fully vaccinated and boosted. I am your weekend backup to help you reset after a long week of being a superhero aka parent. I began working with children at the age of 15. I was a Counselor in Training at a sleep away camp. The following two years I worked as a Camp Counselor at the same camp. I began babysitting at the age of 18. I have worked with multiple families with multiple children. I currently work at a Dance Studio as the manager and instructor. The Dance Studio mostly caters to children between the ages of 2 through 14. I am currently certified in First Aid/CPR/AED for both Adult and Pediatric. My experience makes me qualified but my personality is why I have such a great relationship with the kids. Babysitting has always been fun for me. Children are true little sponges that soak up everything. The things they say or do always manage to make my day brighter. Being younger allows me to truly enjoy my time with families. I love to go outside with kids play a little soccer, baseball, or basketball. Kids always love that I can teach them some dance moves. Although usually most kids just prefer me to read to them. I try to give every character in a book their own voice. I haven't had a bad experience sitting. The occasional meltdown is expected and I'm prepared to handle whatever is thrown mine way. References, a resume and a professional background check are available upon request.

We hired Rabia after my wife broke her elbow and was unable to lift the baby. Naturally, my wife was nervous about staying involved in baby care. Rabia ensured the baby's needs were met while helping my wife stay included and connected. Because we both work from home, we spent a lot of time with Rabia and got to know her: we found her to be pleasant, professional, and kind. She was the peaceful presence we were looking for in a nanny. Our baby was lucky to have such a devoted and knowledgeable caregiver. Rabia was reliable, gentle, and calm. It was easy to communicate with her. She showed up on time every day full of energy and good cheer. We felt very comfortable leaving our baby in her care. When she was with our 6mo old, she actively played with him on the playmat. She put him into tummy time, helped him practice sitting up, and worked on other motor skills. She proactively thought about the baby's development and future well-being. Her experience and ease with children were obvious. We would be happy to hire her again.

Harrison T., Child Care in Cedarhurst, NY 11516 with 10 years of paid experience

**ACTIVELY SEEKING GIGS - SUMMER 2026** HEY! I'm Harrison. I’m actively looking for all sorts of work over the summer and beyond— open to regular, intermittent, and anywhere in between. My schedule is fairly flexible, and I’m up for logistic-satisfying hangs, orchestrating grand adventures, date night coverage, and more. If you think I may be a good fit for your family, would love to connect! A little about me— I moved to Brooklyn ~4 years ago to manage a giant rock climbing gym. I've worked with kids a ton in climbing gyms over the last 10 years, from running summer camps to making birthday parties awesome. After leaving my role last year, I transitioned to sitting/nannying in an attempt to reclaim joy in my work life-- and it's been a blast so far. I like climbing, games (video, board, word, active, other), telling riddles + jokes (ask me about street sweepers!) building things, cooking, soccer, swimming, and riding my bike excessive distances. I went to school for film, and I used to be a producer on a PBS show-- I still love filming/editing fun videos with the kids I sit for (*movie magic*)! I'm CPR / first aid certified and generally skilled at balancing fun and safety in childcare settings. I'm a skilled driver, though I do not currently own a car. Beyond just sitting, I'm happy to support with: -homework help! I used to student teach / tutor English back in high school, and I am generally math-proficient. -meal prep! I chef 95% of my apartmenthold's meals right now, and I love to cook. -climbing! Wanna learn the ropes or just give it a try? I'm your guy. -pet care! I live with 3 cats (1 mine, 2 my girlfriend’s) and I care for dogs of friends & clients regularly. Hope to hear from you!

Nicole is an excellent babysitter. She's kind, outgoing, engaged, and professional. My 11 month old daughter loves to play with her. When we needed extra weeknight help, Nicole jumped into our routine seamlessly. She follows directions but doesn't need handholding. She has lots of experience and is very attentive to our child. I feel I can trust her completely. Highly recommend Nicole as a babysitter!
