Hi! My name is Elena, I am a School Psychologist I have worked in the elementary and preschool setting. After finishing grad school I began working in Early Intervention providing ABA therapy and special instruction to babies up to age 3. I have a passion for working with infants and toddlers my professional experience has afforded me the skills to help children grow, develop, and learn. I have an Early childhood specialization as well as bilingual Spanish specialization. I have spent a number of years babysitting through out college. Currently I am taking time off from my career as a new mom and provide care in my home only. I have worked with several families creating meaningful relationships.

Elena is great! My daughter, who doesn't have much experience with other families had a great time with her and her daughters- she was sad to leave and asked when she can see them again. 10/10

Wendi K., Nanny in Locust Valley, NY 11560 with 20 years of paid experience

Hello! I am a retired Paraprofessional/Teacher Assistant with 20 years of experience working for the NYC Board of Education. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration and am also a proud mother of two. My driver's license is clean, and I am CPR certified. I have a genuine love for children and extensive experience working with special needs kids. Patience, care, and nurturing are qualities I pride myself on. I have significant classroom experience as well as tutoring backgrounds. I have experience working with infants and toddlers. I have worked part-time at a Montessori school with toddlers aged 18 months to three years. I find this age group particularly fascinating, and I thoroughly enjoy working with these young children. I possess extensive experience in feeding and supervising their naps. The two-year-old stage is a critical period, during which they acquire communication skills and assimilate new knowledge. Additionally, I am comfortable with pets and can help with walking them if required. Currently, I am working part-time with two sisters, ages five and six. My responsibilities include picking them up from school, taking them to various activities, entertaining them, and preparing dinner when necessary. I am also currently working with a three-year-old girl who is speech-impaired and has some medical issues. My duties include feeding and changing her, as well as engaging her in activities, specifically puzzles and other exercises to improve her motor skills. I also assist with driving her to outside services and school. The mom just recently had a baby so I do help with him as well. My duties includes feeding, changing, taking him for walks. Unfortunately this position will come to an end at the end of August. The child will be starting a new school program and my services are no longer required.

Wendi was our daily sitter for our 4 & 5/6 year old girls for a year and was beyond amazing! She was reliable, an excellent role model, and deeply caring. She drove our girls to afterschool activities, took them to the playground, and on playdates. She was wonderful with our pup and would also make dinner for the girls and help with homework, when needed. We love Wendi and can’t more highly recommend!

I used Sittercity for the first time and was honestly super hesitant about booking someone, but I’m so glad I found Jennifer! From the moment my daughter saw her, she seemed to pick up on Jennifer’s energy right away and was happy and comfortable with her the entire time. That gave me such peace of mind, especially since this was my first time using the app. This was also a very last-minute request, but Jennifer was available, responded to my initial message so quickly, and was incredibly responsive anytime I had a question. She was so sweet, attentive, and great with my daughter. Honestly, I’m almost glad my original babysitter fell through because it led me to Jennifer! She is definitely someone I will be booking again in the future. I highly recommend her!

Arlene B., Nanny in Locust Valley, NY 11560 with 14 years of paid experience

Hi everyone, I'm Arlene a capable , responsible , fun , caring, loving nanny and I'm also a trained new born care specialist, I'm certified with over 16 years experience as a nanny as well . I'm trained in circumcision care, umbilical cord care ,getting babies on schedule and helping new parents transition into this new adventure in their lives. As a nanny I've grown to understand that every family and situation is different so I pride myself in learning new ways to bring stability and joy to each family I work with . Growing up I was the eldest in our home and therefore was left at times to to care of my younger siblings . I'm fun to have around , your children will be happy to have me as their nanny.I love children and enjoy their company immensely and find nothing is more rewarding than taking care of them especially babies is rewarding but sometimes challenging. Over the years, I have developed special techniques that prove useful in calming young babies, including the most restless ones. I am in favor of a structured day as it gives children an opportunity to follow a schedule, I believe in creating a positive, happy environment for children, one in which they feel protected and can thrive. I have good organizational and communication skills, which I believe are among the most important skills for a nanny. All my employers have been happy with my work and have often complemented me on my expertise in taking care of young children.I'm certified in CPR and First Aid as well and l have since then kept my certifications up to date .I believe such knowledge is important for a nanny and can be a life saver in case of an injury or accident.l have references available upon request , likewise a background check. I know I can be an asset to your family if you decide to allow me to be a part of it .

Arlene is knowledgable, reliable, trustworthy and above all, a nurturing caregiver to our son. She has provided us and our four month old with quality care and is deserving of a five star review! In addition to her knowledge and experience she has a very kind disposition and a strong work ethic. Arlene arrives at work on time and has accommodated us on several occasions by changing her schedule to help us. Arlene is extremely attentive and has a wonderful way with children. Arlene communicates well with us and sends updates and pictures during the day to keep us informed. We have made the right choice by inviting Arlene into our home and our family.

Kari is a kind, caring, hard working, extremely responsible caregiver who takes care of children as if they were her own. She is always on time, rarely ever takes days off, and is willing to take on additional tasks in the home such as meal prep and light cleaning. Kari is a positive, caring, respectful person who has experience taking good care of babies through elementary school age children.

Adama B., Nanny in Locust Valley, NY 11560 with 3 years of paid experience

Hi, I’m Adama! I’m a full-time finance student and CPR & First Aid certified, currently seeking part-time or occasional babysitting (evenings, weekends, date nights, or short shifts). I have 3–4 years of childcare experience, including caring for children in both home and program settings. I previously worked as a youth mentor with So Shell Butterflies (HANAC) and provided care for a family with three children ages 3–12. I’m calm, reliable, and attentive, and I enjoy keeping children engaged through play, homework help, and outdoor activities. I adapt easily to each family’s routines and prioritize creating a safe, supportive, and positive environment where kids feel comfortable and cared for. I’m best suited for families looking for a responsible, dependable sitter rather than full-time childcare. I look forward to supporting families who need flexible, quality care.
