A little bit about me

Hello everyone!
I recently moved to the NYC area from Texas, though I’m originally from Louisiana! I’ve been babysitting since I was about 13 years old and have experience caring for children ranging from infants to teens (ages 1–15). I also have extensive experience working with children with special needs, which has taught me patience, creativity, and adaptability.
Coming from a big family myself — I’m number 4 out of 6 siblings! — I’m very comfortable in busy, lively households. I truly enjoy creating fun, safe, and engaging environments for kids to learn, play, and grow. Whether it’s helping with homework, planning activities, or just spending quality time together, I always aim to make each child feel cared for and supported.

A little bit about me

My name is Nicholas Kraft! I was born and raised in North Carolina and attended the University of Michigan, where I graduated with honors. My first job in the city was as a nanny for 3 boys (ages 8, 10, and 12) and I have continued working in childcare while pursuing a career in the performing arts. I am driven, gentle, and extremely mindful when it comes to kids and the impact we as adults have on their development.

A little bit about me

Current Psychology w/ focus in child and adolescent development; Mom of a 5 (almost 6) year old, 7 year old, and 2 year old emotional support babe, Earl. Before studying Psychology I studied Songwriting and Music Production at Berklee College of Music. I have always loved and taken care of children of all ages, and am up to 4 Godchildren! My own two children were homeschooled since infancy, beginning with being consistent with them hearing at least 10,000 words per day, reading them at least 3 books daily, and teaching them baby sign language. I have also taught another toddler I cared for years ago toddler/baby signing as well. I am trustworthy, reliable, communicative, and have been nicknamed "The Baby and Animal Whisperer", because babies/kids and animals are always magnetically drawn to me. I would love to become a wonderful addition to you and your family's lives and provide top-notch care for you all!

A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Isabella and I am a 22-year-old graduate from the University of Edinburgh with a degree in Art History. I’m excited to spend a year abroad, and a live-in nanny role feels like the perfect way to combine my love of working with children with the chance to experience family life overseas.
I grew up in England and studied at Marlborough College, a full boarding school, which made me independent and adaptable from an early age. At university, I balanced my studies with an active lifestyle, regularly going to the gym and playing netball.
I’ve cared for younger cousins, supported family friends, and volunteered in a local school for two years, helping children with reading. I also have experience supporting a child with autism and ADHD, which taught me patience, calmness, and flexibility.
Creative, caring, and responsible, I enjoy swimming, reading, photography, and cooking. With a full, clean driving licence, I’m confident with school runs, activities, and errands.

A little bit about me

Hi, I’m Sheneily!
I’m a 20-year-old Hispanic caregiver with over 5 years of experience working with children of all ages. I’ve had a passion for childcare since I was 15, and I truly enjoy creating a fun, safe, and supportive environment for kids to grow and play in.

I am CPR certified and PCA (Personal Care Assistant) certified, which means your child’s safety and well-being are always a top priority. I’m comfortable caring for multiple children at once and love planning both indoor and outdoor activities—whether that’s a trip to the park, crafts, games, or story time. I’m also happy to help around the house with light cleaning and can assist with any snacks provided. I am mindful of any dietary needs or preferences.

In addition to childcare, I’m also comfortable with pets, including dogs and cats, and can help care for them if needed.

I’m reliable, kind, and flexible—and most importantly, I care deeply about building trust with both children and their families.❤️
