As an experienced nanny with over 10 years of dedicated service, I possess a wealth of expertise in caring for newborns, twins, and children with special needs.

Additionally, I am very experienced at managing the unique challenges that come with caring for twins, such as maintaining individual routines and fostering their individual growth. Furthermore, my background in working with children with special needs has allowed me to develop patience, adaptability, and effective communication strategies to support their unique requirements. My commitment to creating a safe, stimulating, and loving environment, combined with delivering exceptional care, makes me an exceptional Caregiver!

A little bit about me
Hi there! My name is Michaela, and I am passionate about art, music, cooking, baking, crafting, and more! I recently moved back to New York after working in childcare in Hawaii. My top priority is to provide a safe, nurturing, and creative environment for children to thrive. With a background in art and design and currently pursuing my degree, I blend creativity and structure in my approach. I believe engaging children in artistic activities encourages their imaginations. As an aspiring art therapist, I understand the importance of emotional expression and incorporate these principles into my care. Through storytelling, drawing, or interactive play, I am dedicated to helping children explore their world and express themselves meaningfully. I am reliable, responsible, and truly enjoy spending time with kids. I look forward to working with your family and contributing to your child's growth and happiness.

"Fauna’s bubbly nature is a welcomed presence to any home. She came to us at 18 years old and although young, she was great maintaining a schedule and is a great at keeping the kids areas clean and tidy. The girls loved fauna doing their hair. Even 2 years after leaving my oldest (12 yrs old) still wants her hair styled the way fauna did it. She’s patient, loving and stronger than she looks.
Her cooking skills have improved a lot since she arrived.
Our son is autistic and nonverbal and fauna was amazing with him. She was responsible for taking him to bathroom at regular intervals, changing his diaper if he had an accident and showered him daily.
I would strongly recommend you give fauna a chance to get to know her. I’m sure you will be grateful that you did."

A little bit about me
My name is Sophia, I’m 21 years old, and caring for children has always been a big part of my life. Growing up with several younger siblings gave me early hands-on experience, and I later built on that by working for two years at a childcare center, caring for children from infancy through preschool.
I’m outgoing, responsible, and take pride in maintaining a clean and safe environment. I love spending time with kids whether it’s helping them learn new things, encouraging creativity, or simply making them feel cared for and supported. I’m always open to learning new skills and embracing new experiences, and I bring a positive, adaptable attitude to everything I do.

"Having Leah as an employee was a relief for me and my kids honestly. Her diligent care for school aged children and toddlers is admirable. Luckily, I learned she was a sleep away camp counselor and she sounded quite creative! And she was! If you’re looking for a young adult who knows her stuff, I suggest contacting her!"

"Cindy is what I call sent from heaven. She cares so much for my kids and they absolutely adore her. She has watched all 4 of my children alone and is comfortable taking all of them out at once. She has taken them places I've never even heard of and definitely knows how to have a great time. No matter what life throws at her she always comes to work with the biggest smile on her face ready to play. She is very organized and has a fun personality. Although she is no longer employed by me she still comes by occasionally to have dinner with the kids and catch up. She goes above and beyond and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone needing a nanny or babysitter. We love her!"

Hi! I’m Briana and I was born and raised in Austin, TX. I come from a big Mexican family, so I’ve always been around kids and learned how to keep busy households happy and organized. I’ve been a nanny for 7 years, including caring for twins and traveling with families. I love staying active, cooking healthy meals, helping with homework, and creating fun and safe environments where kids can learn and play. I’m moving to NYC soon and I’m excited to explore the city with the children I care for.

"Briana worked for us for the last 2 years and was so great with our 3 girls. They adore her. As a parent she is a wonderful nanny as she is easy company, extremely reliable, fantastic cook, loves cleaning and has a very strong work ethic. She’s a very safe driver, always happy to take kids to any activities/play dates or to make a plan of how to entertain them. She takes direction/feedback very well.
Our kids adore her as she’s patient, kind, creative and fun.
Briana did school pick ups, prepped and cooked (very healthy) meals, cleaned up after girls, did laundry and often helped with homework. She often covered date nights too. She has traveled with us overseas also and was very quick to figure out a new place and find activities to entertain my kiddos."

"Janelle worked under me at Camp Sloane YMCA over the course of two summers. She demonstrated excellent dedication to her work and connected with the campers like no other. We internally promoted her from counselor to waterfront director, entrusting her to run all of the camp swimming programs. Janelle is organised, passionate, and patient. These traits make her somebody I can count on to get her job done while also ensuring camper safety. Janelle also knows how to inject fun into daily activities when possible. I have seen many kids leaving swim lessons not only having learned new skills, but also gaining confidence and having a good time."
