A little bit about me
And I did homecare for many years
But I did do one agency for a year
That dealt with
Ascs children who might be removed
From the home if the parents were abusive
But then the agency closed down
And I went back to caring for adults
At another agency.

Note: I'm also available for temp/temporary/short-term nanny position and also during winter and holidays
Hi! (: My name is Rafaella, I'm 26 years old and I'm currently living in Upper West Side. I have experience working with children at different ages and also working with special needs kids (autism spectrum) and working with kids who have food/other allergies (like eczema) . I can speak English and Portuguese. I used to drive the kids here in the US and I have a valid driver's license. I'm fully vaccinated and boosted. Also, I'm CPR certified. I had a wonderful childhood and had good influences and I've learned how important and special it is. So I want to be an example to your children and teach them interactive games that stimulates the child's thinking, reasoning, coordination, reading, learning and interaction with the world. Let me know more about your family and the position in case you think we can be a good fit, thank you! (:

A little bit about me
I am a very outgoing and warm person. I love talking and getting to know new people. I am super adventurous and always up to try something new. I take pride in my creativity and always carry that trait into my work with children.
I have been working with children for about 7 years and have grown a strong passion for it. Those years of experience include Au Paring in France, working at a Montessori school, as well as nannying and babysitting for private families.

What are the responsibilities of a nanny?
Nanny responsibilities range from childcare tasks to assisting with household duties. The exact job description depends on the specific needs of the family. For a special needs nanny, duties might also include providing tailored care and implementing therapeutic activities. Activities can be tailored to the child's interests and abilities. For instance, exploring sensory-friendly exhibits at the Children's Museum of the Arts for a child with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Check out our guide for a deeper dive into nanny responsibilities.
How should I conduct a nanny interview?
When you find a nanny in New York, the interview process is crucial. Prepare in advance by creating a list of nanny interview questions tailored to your family's needs. These may touch on their experience with special needs children, their training, and their ability to handle potential emergency situations. Remember, it's essential to have a conversation, not just a Q&A session. Here's how to prepare for a nanny interview.
What is a nanny contract and why do I need one?
A nanny contract is an agreement between you and your nanny that outlines key details such as hours, salary, and job duties. It helps set clear expectations and can help prevent misunderstandings down the road. It's also a great place to lay out specifics about caring for children with special needs. For a closer look at the details, see our guide on nanny contracts.
What should I know about nanny payroll and taxes?
Nannies are considered household employees, which means you're responsible for withholding taxes from their paycheck and paying employer taxes. This process can be complex, but a nanny payroll service can help simplify it.
How do I ensure a safe and secure hire with background checks?
Background checks are a vital step in the hiring process. They can provide peace of mind about your potential nanny's criminal history, driving records, and other vital information. It's always wise to inform candidates in advance that you will be conducting a background check. You can learn more about our approach to background checks here.
How do I decide between a part-time, full-time, or summer nanny?
Your decision will depend on your family's needs and schedule. A full-time nanny often works 40 hours a week, while a part-time nanny might work less than that. A summer nanny is typically hired for a set period during the summer break. You might find that one type of arrangement better fits your family's requirements. To help you navigate these choices, we've prepared a guide detailing the costs associated with each type of nanny in New York.
