I truly love being a nanny and sitter because caring for children has always been a natural part of who I am. I find joy in creating a safe, nurturing environment where kids can grow, explore, and feel supported. Every child is unique, and I value the chance to bring out their creativity, confidence, and curiosity through play, learning, and consistency. I have decades of hands-on experience raising my own children as well as working with families in the U.S. and abroad. Over the years, I have cared for children of all ages from newborns and toddlers to school aged kids and teens with an emphasis on patience, positive communication, and encouragement. I understand the balance between structure and fun, and I know how to adapt to each family’s needs.

Barbara has been an exceptional babysitter for our 13-month-old. She is incredibly easy to work with, professional, responsive, and a natural caregiver. What stands out most is her intuition—she knows how to read and respond to our child's cues, especially when things don't go according to plan. We have complete trust in Barbara and always feel comfortable knowing our child is in her care. She is dependable, attentive, and genuinely invested in providing the best care possible. We highly recommend Barbara to any family looking for a skilled, trustworthy, and compassionate caregiver.

Caring for little ones has always been my passion! I have 7 years of childcare experience, working with children from infants through age 6. I currently work in daycare and have previous experience nannying three children, as well as two children under two. I’m experienced in meal prep, potty training, diapers, bedtime routines, crafts, learning activities, and homeschooling. I love keeping kids active with fun, age-appropriate activities, including trips to parks, libraries, and museums. I am CPR, First Aid, Medication, and EpiPen certified, with additional training in early childhood development. I’m currently looking to return to providing personalized childcare and am available full time weekday care along with weeknight and weekend babysitting. I truly love building meaningful relationships with children and treating every little one with the same care and attention I would give my own.References are available upon request! Feel free to reach out with any questions.

Hello! My name is Cat, and I am a Brooklyn native now living in Hudson, New York. I have been babysitting since my early teenage years, starting with neighbors and family friends and continuing throughout college. From a young age, I discovered an undeniable passion for working with children and babies, and that love has stayed with me throughout my career. I am currently working as a Licensed Massage Therapist and hold a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology. My education and professional experience have given me a strong understanding of child development, communication, and providing compassionate care. I absolutely love what I do, but I have always maintained a special place in my heart for childcare. My experience includes caring for children as young as 5 months through 10 years old, although I am comfortable caring for children of any age. I am nurturing, patient, responsible, and truly enjoy creating a fun, safe, and comfortable environment for the children in my care.

I’m a 21-year-old Human Development major at UAlbany with extensive experience in childcare and a passion for working with children. I’ve had hands-on experience looking after kids of various ages, from babysitting my younger cousins to working in daycare settings and interning as a kindergarten teacher in San Francisco. I’ve also completed child development courses, which have given me a strong understanding of children’s cognitive, physical, and social growth. I enjoy creating fun, age-appropriate activities to keep kids engaged and help them develop new skills, and I’m experienced in establishing structured, comforting routines, especially after school. Whether it’s homework assistance, creative play, or quiet time, I’ll ensure your children have a balanced, fulfilling experience. I’m also experienced with children on the autism spectrum, so I’m attentive to individual needs and can adapt routines and activities accordingly. I’m responsible, dependable, and excited to make a positive impact on your family!

Thank you for considering me for your family/home~ I’m excited to connect on how I can support your family specifically! I’m passionate about supporting children in exuding their innate intelligence, and fostering interdependence where children feel safe, seen, and empowered to explore themselves & the world. Choosing me: you’ll welcome a learner-led Educator and artist/ designer, with 6 years of experience working with children of various ages and children with special needs. After working in a variety of childcare environments—Preschool, Montessori, Daycare, High School, Park Districts, Therapeutic School, Forest School, Community Programs—& with taking my own time away from traditional structures, I’ve come to understand that to truly teach kids agency, we must model it ourselves. I focus on emotional development, connection over correction, supporting intrinsic motivation, and honoring unique learning styles with personalized goal activities. I work great with: ✧ divergent-minded children who thrive with encouragement & understanding ✧ families who value creativity, play, and connection to nature as foundational for growth ✧ those interested in embracing organic learning rhythms and who are open to adjustments to support particular difficulties & challenges ✧ families who wish to focus on strengths & capability and who hold an experimental lens to life Please reach out 😊
