A little bit about me
Hi there! My name is Mikayla, and I have over 10 years of nannying and babysitting experience. I have worked with children ages 3-months to 13-years-old and have experience with both neurotypical children and those who have special needs. In addition to professional live-out nanny experience, I have also worked as an au pair, babysitter, dance and yoga teacher.
My care philosophy is to provide children with all the tools they need to make good decisions, follow their passions and learn something new every day. I focus on redirection and reflection rather than punishment. I value a strong routine, while also using unexpected challenges to build resilience. I love to incorporate movements like dance and yoga, and am a strong believer in the mind-body connection.
My goal is to find a full-time nanny position with a family based in New York City. I spent the last two years in Corporate America, and have missed the joy and personal connections that come from working as a nanny.

A little bit about me
Hello,
I am a therapist currently finishing up my doctoral degree in clinical psychology. I have worked with kids of all ages therapeutically, as a tutor, and as a babysitter. I have training in attachment research and have experience studying play, development, and improving the caregiver/child relationship. I also have an MA in English from Columbia so I can help with summer academic support for older kids. I live in Brooklyn and I’m flexible on hours and location. My approach with children of any age is playful, warm, curious, and sensitive. I also have a backbone and can be firm and calm in hard situations. I really love kids and understanding their feelings and behaviors. I also am a good communicator and know how important it is to develop trust with the nanny you hire. I am confident about being able to build a good connection with you and your child. I hope to hear from you soon!
Warmly,
Rose Howell

A little bit about me
Hi, I'm Nelly, and I'll tell you a little about my experience so you can rest easy while I do my job. I was a kindergarten assistant at a multi-age school in Peru. I worked as a nanny for a year in New York, where I cared for a 3-month-old baby, a 2-year-old boy, and a 3-month-old girl. I also cared for two siblings, ages 3 and 6, whom I adore so much. I know the importance of changing diapers, sterilizing bottles, washing dishes properly, early stimulation to encourage rolling and crawling, sleep routines, good feeding schedules, and what to give them so they eat well. By the way, I also love to cook. I strive to keep them entertained with educational games, fostering their creativity without the help of screens like tablets or cell phones. I also don't smoke and consider myself a respectful, kind, honest, and sincere person. If you have any questions or concerns, don't hesitate to write to me!

"Nelly is a great nanny, but best of all she is a very good person. Everyday she brings her best self to our home to create a good atmosphere. She played with our son all the time while also having the responsibility of doing his laundry, preparing his food and cleaning up his bedroom and toys weekly.
She's very proactive and fast learner."

A little bit about me
I’ve been a nanny for 11+ years and live in Brooklyn, NY. I have excellent references, my passport is valid, I’m a strong swimmer and a confident driver. I have a B.S. in Environmental Education and I am infant/child CPR AED first aid certified.
I have extensive knowledge of and experience with infants and children through the age of 10. I create a fun and engaging but safe environment to foster age appropriate development and exploration. I believe it is important to get out into the world and learn how to be a positive, conscientious member of society. I put an emphasis on exploring local playgrounds/parks, playgroups, classes and events but make sure home is fun too.
I have years of household management experience on top of childcare and I believe it's my job to make sure you have nothing to worry about when you get home besides spending time with your children. I'll help with meals, laundry, groceries, tidying and do what needs to be done to keep a busy household running.
