Mikka Bumalay

Manhattan, New York$30/hr | 1 yrs experience

Hello, I am a naturally timid but warm spirit who finds her truest self around the unfiltered energy of kids. I love the humbling truth that children always teach us more than we could ever dream of teaching them. I am so grateful to give them my undivided eyes, ears, and heart for they have always opened it much wider than anything else ever could.

Victoria Washington

Manhattan, New York$20/hr | 5 yrs experience

I have a passion for facilitating and maintaining supportive and kind relationships with the children and families I work with. I am flexible on parenting styles and have worked with children who ADHD and Dyslexia. I also worked during COVID-19 when the children I nannied were virtual learning and discovered I have a talent and love for teaching. I am also proficient in ASL and have implemented some ASL with my last group of children. I come from a diverse background of different cultures, countries, and people. . I grew up around lots of children and have always enjoyed their presence. My favourite thing about kids is that they remind us to romanticize a world around us that we have grown used to and now see as mundane. I believe nannying is a mutually beneficial relationship where the families and children I work with and for enrich my life and I enrich theirs.

Hi there! My name is Chloe. I am moving to the NYC metro area in early 2022 from the west coast. I have over 7 years of childcare experience caring for children of all ages, but I am especially strong with young children. In fact, my most recent position was a lead infant teacher at a preschool.

Maria Magalhaes

Chelsea, New York$25/hr | 5 yrs experience

FULLY VACCINATED KID EXPERT! I have a little over seven years of nanny experience and have worked with multiple families over time, solely on recommendations. I enjoy teaching the kids I work with Spanish and Portuguese, which I am proficient in, and helping them broaden their knowledge in foreign languages. I currently go to school and am in the works of getting my degree in Psychology, where I will be specializing in child psychology. Contributing to the life of a child, whether I am a nanny or a future psychologist, would be greatly fulfilling and my love for working with little ones runs so deep I want to continue to do so for a while!
I have a passion for young learners and am ambitious when teaching them a new language. I look forward to influencing, helping, and working with more families and children in the near future.
