A little bit about me
Hello! I am a sophomore at NYU Stern School of Business moving back into the city June 1.
I have extensive experience working with kids ages 0-10 through the local swim lesson business I started in June 2019, CM Swim. At CM Swim, I taught swim lessons, babysat and lifeguarded pool parties. Prior to CM Swim, I was a neighborhood babysitter over the summer, and local swim team coach. I am also the oldest sibling with two younger sisters, and have enjoyed taking care of others for most of my life.

A little bit about me
I love to live and live to love🤍 I’m currently learning Spanish, French, Korean and ASL. I’m 21 years old with 5 years of unpaid babysitting and 3+ years of paid nannying. I love to play tennis, figure skating and doing puzzles. Cooking and baking is a great passion of mine and keeping a clean and organized space is something I’m too familiar with. I’ve taken care of over 10 kids all different ages and even some with autism so I’m a little educated in that column as well. I would love to be the next nanny for your kids and I have a couple references that might be able to tell you as well! I’m a pretty good swimmer and story teller as well …I can’t wait to be a great nanny for your children🤍

"Karolina is truly one of a kind, and there is nobody I trust more with my children. When she first started caring for my boys, they were only 3 months old and 1 year old. Two very demanding ages that require constant attention and patience. My children absolutely adore her. They light up when they see her and have built such a special bond with her over the years. Knowing they were with someone who genuinely loved and cared for them gave me incredible peace of mind. She is dependable, caring, patient, and always goes above and beyond. She has become so much more than a nanny to our family, and I will always be grateful for the love and support she has given my children. Any family would be incredibly lucky to have her, and I recommend her wholeheartedly and without hesitation"

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!"

A little bit about me
I am an educated and very active single woman without children or pets looking mostly for more on call, travel nanny or full-time work. Free time is spent leading a very healthy lifestyle cooking mostly organic Whole Foods, reading, exercising, attending different shows and spending time at parks, museums and cultural exhibits as well as traveling and volunteering.
I have teaching experience and extensive experience working as an on call nanny, travel nanny, baby nurse and full-time nanny in recent years and also as a babysitter throughout grade school, high school and college. I also have experience working at day care centers (for adults and children). I can send my resume, letters of recommendation and NY police check to you. Please note, I still presently work for the families who wrote reviews for me, but they had to choose an end date from the drop down menu.

"I hired Camille in July 2021 as a travel nanny and she came with us for two
weeks to Italy when our son was 18 months. Since then she’s worked days for us when we are in New York. We live in the UK so sadly she isn’t a F/T option for us.
Camille is an excellent nanny and exceedingly responsible.
Within minutes of meeting her, our shy son was happily playing with her on the floor.
I would trust her implicitly in my home and with my child. We were in a villa with a pool and
lots of stairs and we knew he was completely safe alone with her, including
swimming.
When it was too hot, she filled hours drawing, reading, etc.
She cooked him nutritious food.
She was amenable to what we wanted and needed each day and needed. When we didn’t need her, she was off doing her own thing.
She would be a great hire, esp for a family with busy parents or a single parent. She researches local activities and parks and always has a new thing to do. We were fortunate to find her."

What are the responsibilities of a nanny?
Nanny responsibilities range from childcare tasks to assisting with household duties. The exact job description depends on the specific needs of the family. For a special needs nanny, duties might also include providing tailored care and implementing therapeutic activities. Activities can be tailored to the child's interests and abilities. For instance, exploring sensory-friendly exhibits at the Children's Museum of the Arts for a child with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Check out our guide for a deeper dive into nanny responsibilities.
How should I conduct a nanny interview?
When you find a nanny in New York, the interview process is crucial. Prepare in advance by creating a list of nanny interview questions tailored to your family's needs. These may touch on their experience with special needs children, their training, and their ability to handle potential emergency situations. Remember, it's essential to have a conversation, not just a Q&A session. Here's how to prepare for a nanny interview.
What is a nanny contract and why do I need one?
A nanny contract is an agreement between you and your nanny that outlines key details such as hours, salary, and job duties. It helps set clear expectations and can help prevent misunderstandings down the road. It's also a great place to lay out specifics about caring for children with special needs. For a closer look at the details, see our guide on nanny contracts.
What should I know about nanny payroll and taxes?
Nannies are considered household employees, which means you're responsible for withholding taxes from their paycheck and paying employer taxes. This process can be complex, but a nanny payroll service can help simplify it.
How do I ensure a safe and secure hire with background checks?
Background checks are a vital step in the hiring process. They can provide peace of mind about your potential nanny's criminal history, driving records, and other vital information. It's always wise to inform candidates in advance that you will be conducting a background check. You can learn more about our approach to background checks here.
How do I decide between a part-time, full-time, or summer nanny?
Your decision will depend on your family's needs and schedule. A full-time nanny often works 40 hours a week, while a part-time nanny might work less than that. A summer nanny is typically hired for a set period during the summer break. You might find that one type of arrangement better fits your family's requirements. To help you navigate these choices, we've prepared a guide detailing the costs associated with each type of nanny in New York.
