A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Shaniah. I’m a very patient, calm, and caring person who loves working with children. I believe kids should always feel safe, understood, and listened to. I’m great at keeping routines, helping with homework, preparing simple meals, and making sure the environment stays clean and comfortable.

I’m respectful of every family’s parenting style, and I take my responsibility seriously. I’m reliable, on time, and I communicate clearly so parents always know how their child is doing.

Whether your child is energetic, shy, or somewhere in between, I adjust to their personality and meet them where they are. My goal is to make sure your child feels supported, cared for, and comfortable while you’re away.

Looking forward to meeting your family!

A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Marithza Barrera!

Over the past nine years, I have held various jobs, but my true passion has always been working as a nanny. Caring for children brings me so much joy, and I treat every child I look after as if they were my own.

About Me:
I am 24 years old and a proud mother to a wonderful 1 year old boy. My days are filled with caring for my family, meal prepping, cooking, and keeping a well-organized home. I also love traveling to Brooklyn to visit my mother. My faith is an important part of my life—I am a devoted Christian who attends church three times a week and finds great peace in prayer and reading the Bible.

I would love the opportunity to provide a nurturing, safe, and engaging environment for your child. Looking forward to connecting with you!

Nearby cities to find a special needs nanny

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.
