Jasmine B.
- 12 years paid experience

Hi, my name is Jasmine. Read a little about me below: I have 14 years of baby sitting/nannying experience (2008-2018). Additionally, in 2015 I started working at a elementary charter school in Brooklyn, NY called Brooklyn Prospect. I’ve had the honor of moving up the scale through a number of promotions. Unfortunately, 2021 was my last year working with my BPCS family as I became pregnant and wanted to take some personal time to enjoy my pregnancy. Much of my childcare career has surrounding around caring for children starting from infancy to 13. Working with children has been my passion as you can see for years. Having engaging interactions, playing, discussing interest and overall getting to know the young ones is a joy that keeps me going. My interest? I have lots of them but my ultimate favorite is dancing so I’m always down for a dance party. I love to be active and run. Want to play basketball, soccer.. I’m so down!!

My name is Theresa and I have well over 23 years of experience caring for young children, toddlers and Infants. I have experience and knowledge of child cognitive, social skills development methods and techniques. I have extensive experience in reading, play and quiet time activities. I have in-depth child supervision skills of all ages. Recently, I have cared for a 6 week infant up until 6 months when he was ready for daycare. I also cared for a 6 week old up until he turned 1 and was ready for daycare. I cleaned and sterilized bottles, bottle fed, changed diapers, prepared baby for nap time, interacted in child play and tummy time, story time, played classical music, and taught cognitive skills. I have cared for two mentally and physically handicapped children for five years. I prepared meals, fed, changed, bathed, administered medication, did laundry and dressed them for bed. I also tutored an 11 year old girl with special needs for four years. I picked her up from the school bus, prepared after school snacks, and helped her with her homework. I was her tutor and I prepared her for her tests. She received high honors for the four years that I cared for her. I also watched three young boys, ages ranging from 3-12, for four years. I did homework, food preparation, transportation to and from sports games, and did various outdoors activities with them. Based on my experience, I feel I would be a perfect candidate to work with your family. I am dedicated to provide compassionate home care for those in need, with affordable rates. I am hard-working, honest, reliable, and I take pride in what I do. I am ready to take on new challenges and responsibilities and I am dedicated to providing the best quality of care possible while, constantly striving for excellence. I believe it is best to work together as a team with the family to obtain optimal success in all areas for the best interest of the children and or parents. Each individualized comprehensive care plan will be designed to assess the individuals current strengths and developments so we can recommend and build upon those strengths to achieve desired outcomes for your loved ones. I am certified in CPR and First Aid and I have a clean driving record. I am also willing to travel. Resume, references, and letters of recommendations can be furnished upon request. Thank you in advance, Theresa

- 10 years paid experience
- 14 miles

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.

Stephanie C.
- 10 years paid experience
- 3 miles

Hello Moms & Dads :)- Please take a moment to read all 🌹 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. Throughout the last 20 years as a teacher and managing services for children with developmental disabilities in the department of health and department of education I have worked as a nanny.on the side for supplemental income. I have extensive experience with premature infants up to middle school children and with children on the spectrum, with ADHD or speech delays. 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, sociall, language, academic (if applicable) and physical; although safety 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 🌸🌸Note: I homeschool my teen who will more often than not come with 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 only work part time positions (mainly weekdays) as stated above as I work independently with the DOH and DOE.

I enjoy being a sitter because children's joy is so infectious. A constant dose of dopamine! It’s the best daily reward anyone could ask for. I’m a warm, patient, and reliable caregiver with 10+ years of experience supporting families across NYC and NJ. My background includes caring for newborns, toddlers, and school-aged kids, as well as twins and multiples. I’m certified in BLS CPR, and Heartsaver CPR/First Aid. I’m especially skilled in infant care, potty training, preparing nutritious meals, light housekeeping, and creating fun, enriching activities that meet your child’s emotional and developmental needs. I integrate the Montessori method, which encourages independence, curiosity, and respectful caregiving, with every family I work with. Outside of childcare, I'm currently learning several languages that intersect with a few of my other hobbies. I'm currently studying Mandarin, Japanese, Korean, and Swahili (basic to intermediate). It's a reflection of my genuine curiosity and cultural appreciation for countries I plan to visit. Whether you need support for a few hours or long-term care, I’m happy to be a trusted helping hand in your child’s world. Looking forward to working with you!
