A little bit about me

Hi, I’m Zakiya! I’m a Brooklyn-based caregiver with 10–15 years of childcare experience, from infants through pre-teens, plus a lifetime as an aunt to my nephew who grew up right alongside me. I’m patient, attentive, and love creating routines that keep kids feeling safe while still leaving room for fun and creativity — I’m also an artist who paints and writes poetry in my spare time. Looking forward to bringing that same warmth and consistency to your family!

More About Me

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love incorporating creativity into playtime arts and crafts, painting, and storytelling are some of my favorites. I also enjoy outdoor activities like park trips and nature walks, plus helping with homework and turning everyday learning into something fun and engaging.

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important part of being a nanny, to me, is being someone a child can trust completely making them feel safe, seen, and genuinely cared for every single day. Kids pick up on consistency, and when they know you’ll always show up for them the same way, it builds a sense of security that shapes how they move through the rest of their world.

The most important part about being a nanny...

One of my favorite memories is turning a rainy day into a full at-home ‘beach day’ for the kids towels on the floor, sunglasses on, music playing, snacks served like room service. They had no idea it was raining outside until hours later. Creating little moments of magic like that is what makes this work so rewarding.

Kacey G. - Seeking Work in Bedford Stuyvesant

Babysitter Available in Bedford Stuyvesant, NY: Kacey G.

Hiya! I’m happy to message you my Care.com nanny profile, which includes several strong reviews, references and a completed background check.

Since I'm fully vetted through that, I chose not to purchase an additional background check through this platform.

I’ve worked with children for over a decade, beginning as a camp counselor and later working as a live-in nanny, house manager, and reliable babysitter during my less demanding seasons. My long-term experience includes caring for children of different ages and needs, including a five-year-old with autism.

I focus on creating a safe, supportive, and engaging environment where children can learn, explore, and feel secure. I enjoy making learning fun through activities, conversation, creative play, and age-appropriate routines. I’d be super ecstatic to bring that experience and care to your family.
