A little bit about me

Greetings! My name is Melanie.

To tell you a little about myself, I have been a Nanny for almost 10 years now with my last position consisting of the care for Boy/Girl twins. I was their Nanny since they were 20 months old and they now are 5 years old. I have a true passion for educating infants, toddlers, and school aged children, giving them the opportunity to experience the world in which they live. Having an educational background in Fine Arts: Drawing and Painting/K-12 Art Education, I thoroughly enjoy exposing children to the Arts; allowing them the freedom to express themselves creatively through outlets of painting, sculpting, and beyond! Throughout my career as a Nanny I've planned educational/developmental games and art projects, hosted countless play dates, accompanied children to classes/appointments, and led interactive story times for all of the children I have worked with. In addition to my childcare experience, I have a proven track record of being an excellent cook. In the past some have even dared to call me a "Top Chef Nanny!" Although a flattering statement , I have taken pride in becoming successful in developing and expanding children's palates during my time with them, which in turn has lead my previous charges to be the least unfussy eaters! As a Nanny I am positive that I can offer children a stable, safe, fun, and educationally nurturing environment that will promote their learning, growth, development, and self confidence for the future.

I am seeking a long term commitment at this time - one that will allow me to grow with a family for years to come!

Nearby cities to find a special needs nanny

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.
