A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Zenia and I am offering my services as a nanny in Manhattan. I have experience caring for children, including 1 year working with twins, which has helped me develop strong patience, organization, and attention to detail. I truly enjoy working with babies, especially infants, and I focus on creating a safe, calm, and nurturing environment for their development. I am responsible, caring, punctual, and very dedicated to my work. I can assist with the baby’s daily routines, feeding, diaper changes, early stimulation, and keeping the child’s area clean and organized. I am available for a long-term commitment with a family looking for someone trustworthy and loving. If you’re interested or know someone who is, feel free to message me.

A little bit about me

I have a bachelor's degree in elementary education & child development from Michigan State University. During my time in college I developed a passion for partnering with families and sharing my knowledge and best practices to help their child thrive. I am a very family oriented person, and I love the opportunity to come alongside and use my giftings to support families (because it really does take a village).

I have worked remote corporate jobs for the past six years. Earlier this year, I was laid off. I worked as a nanny for a infant in my neighborhood and it reignited the passion I had for this work in college. But the family only needed me temporarily until their child started daycare.

I visited New York City for the first time earlier this year and fell in love with the city. My lease is up at the end of September, and I feel I have the unique opportunity to do something I love again and live in such a unique place.

A little bit about me

Hello!
My name is Abby and I am currently a daycare/preschool teacher for infants and toddlers. I specialize in infant care, however I also have a background in early childhood education and a Bachelor's Degree in English. My degree along with my educational background make me an experienced care giver but also a supplemental educator. One of my specialties as a nanny is the ability to incorporate learning into my every day schedule with the children, no matter their age. I believe every child has the capabilities to excel in any environment and I am excited to be the one to help them achieve their goals while making sure they are in the best possible care they could be in.
