Hello! My name is Regina, and I’m a 34-year-old mother to a wonderful 9-year-old boy. I live in Staten Island and am currently focused on offering reliable, compassionate, and experienced childcare within the borough. I’m a licensed cosmetologist, a dedicated homeschooling mom, and a certified provider of Basic Life Support (BLS) through the American Heart Association. I speak both English and Russian fluently, and I was born and raised in the U.S. Childcare has been a consistent part of my life for over 10 years. Prior to having my son, I cared for two young girls over several years—one from the age of 3 to 8, and another around age 9 or 10 for a year. I’ve also helped care for my younger sister, who is now 18. Recently Ive watch a sibling pair aged 1 and 5 . Currently watching a sweet 8 month old boy. I am patient, Read more kind, attentive, and deeply compassionate—traits that make me a natural caregiver. I genuinely enjoy being around children, and I aim to create a safe, warm, and engaging environment. Your child’s well-being would be my top priority, and I’ll care for them as if they were my own. I’m happy to follow any special instructions or routines you prefer, and although I don’t have formal special needs experience, I’m a fast learner and very adaptable. I have my own transportation and am currently available for local work within Staten Island only. I do not bring my child to work—when I’m caring for your child(ren), my full focus is on them. I’m looking for a part-time position with a minimum of 4 hours per shift, ideally 3–5 days per week. My schedule is flexible around homeschooling and extracurriculars. I’m open to caring for up to 2 children (possibly 3, depending on ages), and I’d be happy to coordinate potential playdates if that’s something you’re interested in. Rates: • $20-$25/hour for one child depending on age • Additional $5/hour for each extra child or additional duties I’d love the opportunity to speak with you further and answer any questions. Meeting in person or having a quick phone interview is the best way to see if we’re a good fit. As a fellow parent, I know how important it is to find someone trustworthy, nurturing, and reliable. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your children with love and care—you’ve found the right person. Warmly, Regina

Regina was a wonderful babysitter for our children, and we truly appreciated her care and dedication. She was always punctual, responsible, and engaging with the kids, making sure they were entertained, safe, and well cared for. Both of my kids loved spending time with her. She dedicated her time with helping with homework, organizing fun activities indoor and outdoors with them. Communication with us as parents was also great—she kept us updated and was always professional. We highly recommend Regina to any family looking for a reliable and caring babysitter. We are grateful for her time with our children.

I highly recommend Regina as a babysitter! She is trustworthy, reliable, and great with kids. I don’t trust many people with my kids, but I trust her fully and know they are in great hands. My kids are hard to win over, but they have a great time with her!

Regina took care of my daughter for over a year, and in that time, she became more than just a babysitter—she became a cherished friend to our family. Regina's nurturing nature, reliability, and genuine love for children shone through in every interaction. She not only provided exceptional care but also fostered a loving and fun environment that my daughter absolutely adored. Regina has an innate ability to connect with children, making them feel safe, happy, and engaged. Her creativity in planning activities and her patience in handling any situation were truly remarkable. Regina was always punctual and communicative, ensuring I was updated on my daughter's day. In addition to her professional attributes, Regina's warmth and kindness made her an integral part of our lives. I wholeheartedly recommend her to any family looking for a dedicated, loving, and dependable caregiver.

Regina is amazing ! She treats my girls like her own child. She’s very hands on and loves children. She’s been a tremendous help for me by playing with the girls, reading them stories, changing diapers, going on stroller rides, basic potty training and helping me organize and clean my home. I look forward to spending time with her every week and I know you will too!
