My comfort in enforcing household rules ensures a structured environment for the children in my care.
From outdoor sports to board games and educational activities, I enjoy a diverse range of games that promote physical, mental, and social development. My experience extends to caring for children of various ages, from infants to preteens. I'm comfortable caring for up to four children simultaneously and possess both First Aid and CPR training.

A little bit about me
I've worked as a nanny and babysitter as well as a teacher at a daycare center.
Because of my various roles, I have extensive experience with children of multiple ages. I'm reliable, supportive and friendly. I always aim to create a safe and nurturing environment to allow a child to learn and explore their surroundings. I'm skilled in creating schedules and I'm proactive. I'm a fan of arts and crafts, reading and generally love being outdoors. I also speak fluent Spanish - which I love to teach to the littles I work with.
I'm always willing to ensure that a household is running smoothly by going the extra mile. I understand how hard it can be to entrust your child with someone and so l prioritize making the transition as smooth as possible for both child and parents. I am more than comfortable with providing pictures and updates in order to keep you in the know!

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.
