A little bit about me

I'm a warm, creative, playful caregiver. I have over 15 years of infant and child care experience. I'm a singer/musician who enjoys doing creative activities with kids---music, dance, arts/crafts, nature walks, and imaginary play. I love reading with kids, outdoor time, and also have experience swimming with kids.//

I've cared for infants as young as 1 month old. I had several full-time nanny positions with babies 3 months old and up.//

I've also worked as a teaching assistant in a preschool, as a tutor, and as an English as a Second Language teacher. I studied music,dance,and languages at Bard College. I hold a BA degree in Interdisciplinary Arts from CUNY-City College.//

Thanks! :)

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Nykeria, and I’m a reliable, patient, and energetic caregiver who genuinely enjoys working with children. I have experience in customer service and fast-paced environments, which has helped me develop strong communication skills, responsibility, and the ability to stay calm under pressure.

I love creating a fun, safe, and positive environment for kids. Whether it’s helping with homework, playing games, or sticking to routines, I make sure children feel comfortable, engaged, and cared for. I’m also attentive to each child’s unique personality and needs.

I’m currently an online college student, so I bring a level of maturity, organization, and commitment to everything I do. Parents can count on me to be dependable, respectful, and focused on their child’s well-being at all times.

I’m excited to support families and build a trusting relationship with both parents and children!

A little bit about me

Hi,
My name is Claudia McGrane and I have over 15 years of experience as a long and short term nanny. I have worked a variety of jobs from double sets of twins ( ages three and five) as well as children in their early teens. I tend to become quite close with my employers/ families and have many loving and personal referrals that can attest to this. A previous family I worked for spanned ten years of service, both parents were doctors and I was there to care for two of their three children almost directly from the time of birth. A lot of my time with the children I have cared for are spent reading, playing, doing art/ being creative, outdoor adventures and activities, driving children to school and activities, going to the library, a lot of laughing. My goal is always to keep within the family dynamic, rules and structures and to continue along a familiar path and happy path while mom and dad are away or remotely working.

My name is Abigail. I am a single mom of a 4 year old girl. I currently am looking to relocate from Aspen, CO to the Catskills area to be closer to family.

I enjoy getting outside, playing games/puzzles & working on crafts to pass time. I also enjoy kids movies more than the kids too! I usually do lots of cleaning/organizing as a live in nanny & love all kinds of animals! Thank you for your time & consideration. I hope to hear from you & your family soon.
