A little bit about me

I have been working with children since high school, starting with babysitting and growing into afterschool nanny roles for several families over the past seven years. My experience is primarily with elementary school-aged children, though I have worked with toddlers as well.

I am an energetic and enthusiastic caregiver who loves spending time with kids. Whether reading, doing crafts, cooking, playing sports, or exploring outside, I prioritize hands-on, screen-free activities that keep children engaged and curious.

What draws me to childcare is the opportunity to make a real impact. I have fond memories of my own childhood nanny, and that relationship has always inspired the kind of caregiver I want to be. I bring patience and a calm presence to every situation, focused on creating a safe, nurturing environment where kids feel supported and encouraged to grow.

Outside of work, I enjoy cooking, pilates, spending time outdoors, and trying new restaurants with friends and family.

Victoria M. - Seeking Work in New York

Babysitter Available in New York, NY: Victoria M.

I love being a sitter because caring for others has always come naturally to me. I grew up helping care for my older sister, who has special needs and required 24/7 support — helping with her dressing, feeding, and bathing taught me patience and how to anticipate someone's needs before they ask.

Over the past three years, I've dog sat and potty trained a puppy, and I nannied for a two-year-old for a summer, so I'm comfortable with toddler energy and the responsibility of training a young pup. That, plus growing up helping raise my sister, taught me to stay calm, patient, and reliable no matter what a day brings.

I'm CPR and First Aid certified, regularly cook with my nieces so I'm safe and comfortable in the kitchen with kids, and speak some Spanish. Whether it's a child, a puppy, or a family member who needs care, I show up dependable, warm, and ready to help.
