A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Lucille, and I’m an undergraduate college student looking to nanny for a family in NYC this summer. I’ve grown up caring for my two younger twin brothers, which gave me years of hands-on experience with children and taught me to be patient, responsible, and dependable. I’m also a certified lifeguard, so I’m comfortable supervising children around water and handling unexpected situations calmly. I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids and would love to create a fun, safe, and positive environment for a family while they’re working or enjoying their summer in the city. I’m responsible, active, and excited about the opportunity to become a trusted part of a family’s summer routine.

A little bit about me

I am a caring, dependable, and experienced childcare provider with over 10 years of experience owning and operating my own daycare. During that time, I cared for children of different ages, creating a safe, loving, and nurturing environment while helping them learn, grow, and develop important skills.

As a mother of two children myself, I understand the importance of patience, responsibility, and providing children with the attention and care they need. I enjoy planning age-appropriate activities, helping with routines, preparing meals, encouraging creativity, and making sure children feel comfortable and supported.

I take pride in being trustworthy, organized, and dedicated to every child in my care. My years of daycare experience have given me the skills and confidence to handle daily challenges while providing families with peace of mind that their children are in good hands.

A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Salma! I’m currently working and living at the Grand Canyon, but I’m excited to be heading back home to Columbus, Ohio. I’ve been babysitting for years, and growing up as the oldest of six siblings gave me plenty of experience keeping up with younger kids, helping out, and being the responsible older sister everyone could count on!

I’ve always loved spending time with kids and getting to know their different personalities. Whether it’s playing games, doing arts and crafts, heading outside for an adventure, or settling in with a good book, I enjoy finding fun ways to keep kids engaged and happy. I’m also a big fan of painting, reading, and spending time outdoors, so I’m always up for a little creativity or an outdoor adventure.

I’m a patient, dependable, and easygoing person who wants the kids I care for to feel comfortable, safe, and most importantly, have a good time. I’d love the opportunity to become someone your family can trust and rely on!

Hi families! My name is Liz Napier, and I’m a rising senior at Washington and Lee University double majoring in History and Romance Languages. Originally from Nashville, I have years of childcare experience and have been babysitting children ages newborn–12 since I was 16. Beyond childcare, I’ve worked as a personal assistant and as a housekeeper on a ranch in Wyoming, so I’m comfortable helping with meal prep, organization, errands, tidying, and keeping a busy household running smoothly. I love creating a fun, dependable, and engaging environment for kids while making parents’ lives easier however I can. I’ll be in NYC from June 3–August 12 and am looking for babysitting or nanny opportunities for the summer — I’d love to connect with families looking for dependable, hands-on support!

A little bit about me

My name is Leah, and I am seeking a full time nannying position this summer!

I have over five years of experience working with children as a nanny, babysitter, camp assistant director, dance teacher, tutor, and preschool literacy educator.

I am very child-centered in my approach to nannying - I aim to meet each child where they are at and respond with care, intention, and specificity. I believe that the care-centered relationships I build with children are the most important aspect of my work. I recognize the significance of a nanny's role in children's lives, and work to provide consistent care, emotional support, and compassionate behavioral management which is attuned to each family's values and culture.

As an art history major, artist, and dancer, I bring the values of creativity and exploration to every job I do. I love to engage with children through art projects and creative play activities that support literacy and open up a space for self-expression and connection!
