I'm currently only available for weeknights and weekends. Feel free to reach out with any last minute needs! I’ve been babysitting and nannying all over the city for the past 10 years. I've worked with infants to 12 year olds. Working with children is one of my biggest passions, and I love meeting new families. Through babysitting and teaching, it’s my goal to give children the tools they need to empower themselves and to be compassionate, loving, and resilient. As a caregiver, I strive to be a strong role model for children. I aim to be enthusiastic, grounded, calm, patient, and curious. I encourage children to be dreamers and explorers, sing with their hearts, and tell the silliest jokes. I balance assertiveness with affection and compassion with determination. My goal is to give children the boundaries they need to feel safe and secure, but also the freedom to express themselves fully and to celebrate that. I can be very flexible and do my best to always put the family’s needs first. I work well with families who share my same values as a mentor and caregiver. I'm also looking for a family that values communication, open-mindedness, and are willing to work with me as a team player. I'm very comfortable taking children out on adventures throughout the city. I've worked predominantly in upper Manhattan and the Park Slope area of Brooklyn. Nevertheless, I know NYC very well and am very comfortable traveling with children throughout all parts of the city. Looking forward to hearing from you!

With only 3 years of experience in child care, I feel like I’ve been doing this for a decade. I recently worked at a daycare so I have a lot of experience watching multiple children of different ages at once, as well as having experience nannying 3 foster siblings with learning and behavioral disorders. My approach with children is to always be kind and try and to see things from their perspective, while also being stern and making sure they are safe, learning something and having fun. I am adult and pediatric first aid, CPR, and AED certified (certified through Red Cross, you can verify my validity by checking my certificate ID, which is 01VNC1Q), and love doing house work like cooking, cleaning and laundry. I also walk dogs for wag! , and have 3 cats myself so good with pets and can assist with caring for them as well :)

Hello, my name is Laura Ly Rodriguez and I just turned 31 years old. I am CPR and first aid certified. I went to John Jay College and majored in history and minored in art, but I have always had a passion for working with children of all ages. Those who know me personally, often say that I am patient and have a talent for working with children. It gives me so much joy to put a smile on a child's face and I really love getting to know each child that I have worked with. I am currently taking an online course to pursue my dream of beginning my own family daycare. As my resume says, I have spent many years volunteering my time and working with different families and last year for about 7 months I was working full-time taking care of a young toddler until her mother retired. As of recently if I am either studying to be a daycare owner and/or caring for animals (while their owners go on vacation) or siblings (for date night). While I believe that there are a lot of great childcare providers out there every family needs something different and I believe that because of the variety of experience that I have, that I would be a great candidate for your family. Best Wishes and happy holidays!!!
