Hi there! I’ve been babysitting since 2015 and truly love what I do. I first started in college after connecting with local parents through my daycare job - and I’ve been lucky to build lasting relationships with many amazing families ever since. While I’m originally from New Jersey and have worked with families across my hometown community, I’ve recently moved to Manhattan and I’m excited to connect with new families here! Over the years, I’ve done everything from short-term babysitting and long-term nannying to being a go-to sitter for regular date nights. I have experience with kids of all ages, from infants to teens, and feel especially comfortable with bedtime routines, story time, and light dinner prep. Although I now work full-time during the week, I still genuinely enjoy weekend sitting and date nights—my personal specialty! I’m also happy to help with weekday evening coverage if parents need time to Read more run errands or take a breather. I’m CPR certified and infant first-aid certified, and I have experience caring for children with allergies, including administering EpiPens. References available upon request - I’d love to get to know your family! I'm CPR certified and infant first-aid certified and have experience working with children with allergies and epi-pens. Happy to provide references if needed!
