Kait S.
- 6 years paid experience
- 12 miles

Hi! My name is Kait, and I'm a highly experienced, college educated caregiver who has a passion for working with and forming relationships with children. I have worked with all aged children, from infants, to toddlers, to pre k and to students in elementary school, and I couldn't imagine spending my life doing anything else. I have my degree in sociology with a minor in social work and a certificate in crisis intervention. I've spent time volunteering with various childcare programs at my local church, have babysat for individual families, have worked at a local daycare as their assistant toddler 1 teacher/floater, as well as an after school kindergarten and school age childcare professional. All of this experience has allowed for me to grow and improve as a childcare provider. I value most respect for the child and their family, compassion, and fostering creativity and curiosity, as well as providing for the mental, emotional, and physical needs for the kids that are in my care! I have my own car and am CPR and first aid trained!! I also have plenty of references if desired. Rest easy knowing your children are safe in my care!

I've taken care of children and infants for decades. The amazing thing about children, at any age, is how dynamic they are. It is a real pleasure to take care of an infant or a child--there are insights to delight me at any age! I was a teacher at the NYC Department of Education for almost 26 years, and I taught English to students from 7th grade to the senior level, frequently teaching AP English Literature as well as AP English Language. My students were amazing people--curious, intelligent, and hardworking. In terms of certification, I hold permanent English certification in the state of NY, and have earned three degrees: B.A. in Special Honors and Classical Studies, M.A. in English (with a specialty in Creative Writing), and an M.S. in English Education. In each of my courses of study, I have earned honors or have graduated with academic distinction (I have copies of all my transcripts). I had CPR certification in the past, but am scheduled to take a First Aid/CPR for children course on March 13th with the American Red Cross.

Patricia G.
- 15 years paid experience
- 12 miles

Hi there! My name is Pat. I am a very energetic, artistic, creative and loving mother, grand-mother and babysitter. My career has been as an artist in many capacities, however, I so very much enjoy being around children, so I looked forward to babysitting, since my children and grandkids live far and I miss them! I would love to be able to help you out! I feel confident in my abilities after all these years, of handling any emergencies, or issues in a mature, calm, and decisive way. I am a very honest and caring person. Children bring me so very much joy and I love helping them! I thoroughly enjoy reading to them, playing games, crafts, exercising, and of course, any kind of artwork! Please feel free to ask me anything at all. It would be an honor to be able to care for and spend very meaningful time with ur child/children! One thing I am not comfortable doing is sitting children in front of the TV for long periods of time… (unless it is something you need them to watch.) During the time they are away from there parent(s) I feel a deep responsibility to keep them engaged, happy and thriving. I truly hope to meet with you soon. But if it is not meant to be, ‘Good Luck’ in your search! I remember how stressful it was at times to find a sitter… have a great day!!! Pat ☀️😊🤗 Ps… I would also be fine with helping out with cooking, laundry, and any small jobs you might need done.

Sometimes you just need to get out and get things done without the kids! I get it. And that's where I come in. I can take the kids to the park, play center, library, museum, etc. The bonus is that is can even help with homework! I'll keep the kids occupied and happy until your get back!
