Hi! My name is Kelsey Mulgrew. I’m 30 and am currently taking a break from grad school. I live in Maplewood and am available for work for a while. I have a pretty extensive history working with kids in many different settings. I’ve nannied from a young age and went on to work as a teachers aide at different schools and with many different age groups. It ranges from 3 to 14 for the most part. I’ve also worked in special education and assisted with deaf and autistic students. Besides that, I am certified in first aid and CPR for infants and children. I can change diapers, help with homework, and I can cook anything with a recipe. I know a lot of child-friendly movies and rudimentary sign language (my grad school was a deaf campus). Please don’t hesitate to contact me with questions! Thanks for reading~

Regina Y.
- 19 years paid experience
- 7 miles

Hello! My name is Regina, and I’m a 34-year-old mother to a wonderful 9-year-old boy. I live in Staten Island and am currently focused on offering reliable, compassionate, and experienced childcare within the borough. I’m a licensed cosmetologist, a dedicated homeschooling mom, and a certified provider of Basic Life Support (BLS) through the American Heart Association. I speak both English and Russian fluently, and I was born and raised in the U.S. Childcare has been a consistent part of my life for about 19 years. Ive babysat since I was about 16 years old.Prior to having my son, I cared for two young girls over several years—one from the age of 3 to 8, and another around age 9 or 10 for a year. I’ve also helped care for my younger sister, who is now 18. Recently Ive watch a sibling pair aged 1 and 5 . Currently watching a sweet 8 month old boy and occasional date nights for a 10 month old. I am patient, kind, attentive, and deeply compassionate—traits that make me a natural caregiver. I genuinely enjoy being around children, and I aim to create a safe, warm, and engaging environment. Your child’s well-being would be my top priority, and I’ll care for them as if they were my own. I’m happy to follow any special instructions or routines you prefer, and although I don’t have formal special needs experience, I’m a fast learner and very adaptable. I have my own transportation and am currently available for local work within Staten Island only. I do not bring my child to work—when I’m caring for your child(ren), my full focus is on them. I’m looking for a part-time position with a minimum of 4 hours per shift, ideally 3–5 days per week. My schedule is flexible around homeschooling and extracurriculars. I’m open to caring for up to 2 children (possibly 3, depending on ages), and I’d be happy to coordinate potential playdates if that’s something you’re interested in. Rates: • $20-$25/hour for one child depending on age • Additional $5/hour for each extra child or additional duties I’d love the opportunity to speak with you further and answer any questions. Meeting in person or having a quick phone interview is the best way to see if we’re a good fit. As a fellow parent, I know how important it is to find someone trustworthy, nurturing, and reliable. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your children with love and care—you’ve found the right person. Warmly, Regina

Hi, I’m Anna Diouf! I’m a warm, dependable, and nurturing nanny with extensive experience caring for children of various ages, from infants to toddlers and beyond. Over the past few years, I’ve had the privilege of working full-time with several families in New York and New Jersey, providing attentive, loving care tailored to each child’s unique needs. From March 2023 to March 2025, I cared for two children aged 2 years and 5 months at the start, managing busy calendars filled with school, camps, and extracurricular activities. I organized educational games, storytime, outdoor playdates, and prepared healthy, balanced meals. I also traveled abroad with the family, providing round-the-clock care. Previously, I worked full-time with infants, supporting early childhood milestones like baby-led weaning, walking, and dual-language development, while managing daily routines such as feeding, changing, and nap schedules. My experience also includes live-in nannying, where I focused on nutrition, enriching outings to museums and libraries, and maintaining smooth bedtime routines. I’m CPR-certified, punctual, and communicative, and I bring a creative and compassionate approach to childcare. I’m passionate about child wellness and development and currently preparing to apply to nursing school to specialize in pediatrics, which reflects my deep commitment to nurturing children’s health and happiness. Families trust me not just as a caregiver but as someone dedicated to their children’s growth and well-being.
