A little bit about me

Hi families!
My name is Natalie, I’m a nurturing and dependable caregiver, born and raised in NYC, and moving back home tomorrow. I’m currently looking to join a family in need of a trustworthy and engaged nanny. I have several years of hands-on experience with children of all ages, both as a private nanny and in classroom settings. I also studied Early Childhood Education and child psychology during my time at Buffalo State College.

I’m comfortable helping with household tasks, running errands, and working in homes with pets. While I’m not currently certified in CPR or First Aid, I’m absolutely open to getting any certifications needed to best support your family. I bring a calm, structured, and warm energy to the children I care for, and I’d love to connect to see if we’re a good match!

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

-Working as a private nanny for several families, caring for children ranging in age from newborn to 6 years old.
-Serving as an after-school teacher, supporting young children with daily routines, structured play, and social development.
-Babysitting regularly for family and family friends since I was a teen.
-Studying Early Childhood Education and child psychology at Buffalo State College, which included hands-on learning and classroom observation.

In all of these roles, I’ve been responsible for preparing three balanced meals a day, helping with potty training, and consistently following morning and bedtime routines. I take pride in creating a calm, nurturing environment where children feel safe and supported.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Some of the activities I enjoy doing with children vary depending on their age and interests. With newborns and infants, I focus on gentle stimulation like tummy time, singing lullabies, reading picture books aloud, and baby-safe sensory play.
For toddlers, I love incorporating creative activities like finger painting, dancing, simple puzzles, outdoor walks, and introducing colors, numbers, and shapes through play. With preschoolers and early elementary-aged kids, I enjoy reading stories together, practicing early writing skills, building with blocks or magnetic tiles, doing themed crafts, baking simple recipes, and playing imaginative games. I always aim to keep a good balance between fun, structure, and learning throughout the day.

The most important part about being a nanny...

I think the most important part of being a nanny is making a child feel safe, loved, and free to be their silly, curious, growing little self. Whether it’s sticking to a cozy routine, sharing giggles during playtime, or offering comfort on a hard day, I try to be a gentle and steady presence they can count on. It’s also really special to build a trusting relationship with the parents, so we’re all working as a team. I truly believe the small, everyday moments are what shape a child’s world—and I love being part of that in a warm and meaningful way.
