A little bit about me

My name is Delia, and I am a college student looking for a temporary change of pace. I am not looking to be a forever nanny as I would like to return to school after a year off or so. I have been watching children for as long as I have been able and have found a lot of joy through it. My first job was as a nanny, and I genuinely loved the experience. I love music, politics, hiking, to do lists, and trying new foods! I am comfortable watching children of any age and am looking for a family that enjoys spending time together and especially out of doors! Feel free to message if you are interested in chatting. :)

A little bit about me

My name is Emilia Lopez I´m 21 years old. From San Juan, Argentina living in Novato, California like and au pair but I really want to move to New York.
I studied psychology and that’s helped me a lot to understand kids development.
I'm the oldest of 4 sibling (3 brothers and 1 sister). The youngest is only one year old and I love him so much. Watching how is he growing up without me is a little sad but I'm so happy here that I haven´t feel homesick, at least not yet.
Talking about my childcare experience I used to help my parents driving my siblings and cousins to their activities.
I have 11 cousins, I'm the oldest too. All of them know I will always be there for them, even their parents trust me and ask me for help taking care of their kids. And thats something I really appreciate, every time that someone trust me with the most important part of their life means a lot. Because of that I want to thank you for letting me take care of your kids. I promise you, you won't regret.
Another experience I have is helping teachers with their students in a English institute.
And my last one, with my two lovelies girls. Mackenzie, she is 8 years old and Kennedy who is almost 6 years old.
I always love working with kids because they teach me a lot, they make me want to be a better person.
If I look backwards I realize how much I change not only talking about my childcare experience. Being an au pair tougth me how to see the world with others eyes.
I've always been patient, helpful, responsive, open minded and independent but since I'm here I see that I’m improving all of those qualities.
I'm not ready to go back home because I know I have so much more for learn, improve and I would love to do it with you.

Nearby cities to find a special needs nanny

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.
