Meet Isabel

Hi! My name is Isabel Rolston. I am twenty-six years old, live in Carroll Gardens, Brooklyn, and am currently a graduate student at NYU. I have eleven years of babysitting experience, and have worked as a full-time nanny for the past three. Between 2017-2019, I worked for two different families, fulfilling a similar role for both. I worked part-time and was hired to pick-up the children at school, transport them to after-school activities, organize playdates, assist with homework, make dinner, and oversee bath time. Additionally, I did light household chores such as washing the dishes and putting away laundry. This past year I worked full-time with a baby from the time she was three months old—she is now 14 months. My responsibilities included: bottle feedings, prepping meals, overseeing meal times, maintaining a nap schedule, adhering to sleep training protocols, organizing playdates, running small errands, doing light housework, engaging with the baby, Read more and helping the baby to reach milestones. Beyond updating the parents throughout the day, I also often offered input on the baby’s development, needs, mood, and overall wellbeing. It is incredibly important to me that an open dialogue and regular communication is maintained between both parents and I. All three families mentioned above would be happy to provide a reference upon request! As a caregiver, I like to engage with the arts, encourage laughter, and spend time outside. I am extremely patient, a good and fair problem-solver, and an honest person whom parents can rely on to take care of their child/children while away. I genuinely grow to care for each child I care for; I approach the job with sincerity and an awareness of the huge responsibility it is to care for someone else’s child. Likewise, the respect and care I am given by the family I work for is appreciated, but also an expected acknowledgement of the emotional and physical labor inherent to the job. *I am certified by the American Heart Association in infant, child, and adult CPR* If you think your family and I would be a good match, I would love to chat further and answer any further questions!
