Jessica P.

Hi, I'm Jéssica. I'm an honest, caring, and responsible caregiver with over 10 years of experience. For the past five years, I've focused on infant care - supporting little ones from 5 weeks to 15 months - and I also have extensive experience caring for toddlers and children up to 10 years old. I truly love being part of a child's growth. Learning with them, adapting to their unique rhythm, and supporting each stage of development is something that brings me joy. With toddlers and older kids, I enjoy encouraging independence, helping with learning, guiding routines, and creating fun activities like arts and crafts, outdoor play, and age appropriate teaching. I'm also happy to help with potty training and can introduce your child to Portuguese if you'd like. I'd be happy to talk more, understand your child's needs, and share references.

I have extensive experience working with infants, toddlers and children, especially with ages 3 months to 6 years old. I spent 6 wonderful years as a camp counselor in the Great Neck School District. I also had the amazing opportunity to be an early literacy specialist for the Parent-Child Home program, an international network of program sites that provides low-income families with the necessary skills and tools to ensure their children thrive. Lastly, I spent a fun year working at a daycare, taking care of infants ages 6 to 18 months. I’m fluently bilingual in English and Spanish. Current Certifications include: Wilderness First Responder, CPR Certified (Adult and Child), Epinephrine Auto-Injector certification. Availability beginning January 2027: I am seeking two full days per week only, preferably from 9:00 AM–5:00 PM. My primary availability for full-day care is Tuesdays and Fridays, with flexibility to remain into the evening when needed. On the remaining weekdays, I am available beginning at 6:00 PM. I am also available for occasional date nights and weekend childcare with at least one week’s advance notice. Thanks for taking the time to read and I hope to hear from you soon! Warmly, Freda

We had a great experience with Freda! She worked with us a few times and was always kind, pleasant, and willing to adapt to our family’s needs. Most importantly, our 1 year old daughter really enjoyed spending time and playing with her. We’d happily recommend her to other families!

Hi I’m Sophia! I’m a grad student currently attending SBU to get my MBA! I just graduated in 2025 with a Bachelors of Science in Business and Psychology. I am American Red Cross CPR/AED/First Aid certified for Infants, Children, and Adults. I’ve had 5 years paid experience in childcare starting as a mother’s helper, to babysitter, to nanny. Over the past 5 years I’ve worked with several different families. I started working at my university’s child care Infant-Toddler Room in January 2022 in which I assist with taking care of 15 children ranging from 3 months to 3 years old! Through the daycare, I have acquired several different types of skills through mandated trainings, like allergy awareness and safe sleep. I have travel nanny experience with two different families caring for their infants (6mo and 8mo). I also have a handful of families that I occasionally babysit for! I'm very creative and passionate about art, I love to think out of the box and come up with new crafts and developmentally appropriate activities! I love letting the kids express their creativity through play, music, and art!

This was my first time using a babysitter, so I was naturally a little nervous. Cathy made me feel comfortable and reassured me throughout the experience. I really appreciated her kindness and how she helped ease my worries. I had a great experience and would definitely recommend her to other families. I would happily book with Cathy again!

Hi my name is Kristen and I’m a nanny from New Rochelle. Throughout my experience I learned so much about myself, and about what I want to do with my life, which is to work with people. I am outgoing, passionate, I have great work ethic, and I love people (especially kids)! I am fully vaccinated as well.

Hello everyone! I’m Nicole and have a degree in Philosophy, while also have studies in childhood development and psychology. I’m CPR/first aid trained, have a big interest in arts and music, used to be a cheerleader when I was in college. I have experience working with all age groups, including newborns, multiples and special needs. I used to work as a high school teacher, tutor and the last 5 years I’ve worked exclusively as a nanny/babysitter. Language wise I’m fluent English and Spanish. If it’s something that the family I work for is interested in I also offer to teach Spanish to kids. I’ve worked with many families from different backgrounds that speak different languages and can adapt by studying the language on my own, so that the communication with the kids is as effective as possible. I’m pet friendly and worked with families that had pets, sometimes helping taking care of them at the same time as the kids or watching them while they’re away.

Nicole was absolutely wonderful with our son! She was incredibly patient, kind, and genuinely engaged with him, always taking the time to play and make him feel comfortable. She was also dependable and flexible, helping us out on late nights and weekends whenever we needed her. On top of caring for our son, Nicole even watched our cats when we had to leave town, which gave us so much peace of mind. She consistently went above and beyond, and we often came home to find our house cleaner and tidier than we had left it. We wholeheartedly recommend Nicole to any family looking for a caring, trustworthy, and reliable babysitter. We feel very fortunate to have found her!

Experienced, reliable babysitter and nanny available to help your family part-time Hello, dear families! My name is Maria, and I am a dedicated nanny with a decade and a half of professional experience in child care, alongside the personal experience of raising a wonderful daughter of my own. My journey with children has not only been a job but a passion that has grown with every year I’ve spent nurturing young minds. I am currently seeking a part-time position and am available to bring my caring nature and expertise to your home on Monday to Friday 6 to 8:30 a.m. and evenings Monday to Thursday 4:30 to 7 p.m. Weekends also available .My schedule is crafted to align with the academic calendar, as I’ve been with a wonderful family for a decade and continue to work with them. However, now that the children are in school, I have additional hours and an abundance of care to extend to another fantastic family. My approach is always thoughtful and centered around the unique needs of each child I look after. I pride myself on being reliable—a trait that has been paramount in maintaining a decade-long relationship with a single family—and hardworking, always willing to go that extra mile to ensure a stable, positive environment for the children in my care. My experience spans caring for children of all ages, from the delightful curiosity of toddlers to the fascinating thoughts of teenagers. I deeply understand the varying needs at different developmental stages, and I’m adept at engaging children in a mix of educational and recreational activities. I can cook, drive, do laundry, run errands – anything you need, no task too big or small. I am looking forward to the opportunity to care for your children, providing them not just with supervision, but with a nurturing, fun environment where they can thrive, learn, and feel at ease. Please feel free to contact me for any more information or to discuss how I can be a part of your family’s journey.

Maria is one of the most wonderful people I have ever met. She has been with my family for about a year and a half now. She gets my kids off the bus at around 3 and watches them until I get home (4-5 days/week), generally around 7. She is more than willing to help you out, with whatever you need. When asked to do something in particular, her pat answer is "no problem". She is a a great driver and VERY responsible. She has not once left me shorthanded and has helped me out on NUMEROUS occasions when I was in a jam. For example, she even slept over when night when my husband and I went away! Her help around the house, wonderful can do attitude, responsibility, and understanding of children is a home run. My kids are getting older so I do not need help with the kids as much as I did. Maria is a treasure and I have come to think of her as a good friend. I am going to miss all of her help! If you are unsure, give her a chance - you will not be sorry.
