A little bit about me

I am originally from Seattle, have been an international humanitarian aid worker for many years and relocated to NYC 3 years ago.

I have a degree in Child Developmental Psychology, have worked summers as a camp counselor for all ages, nannied for years when I was younger, and am a very proud and dedicated Auntie to my niece and nephews (ages 3 months -10 yrs). I have an MA in Intercultural Youth and Family Development, and specialized my thesis on adolescent girls' leadership during the Peace Corps while studying all developmental ages.

In my global work I am specialized in child protection, gender equality, and gender-based violence. I love learning and understanding all cultures and individual needs and perspectives.

I am very interested in nature, and try to spend as much time as I can outside! I take kids out on walks, play, and am otherwise very active and educational with children.

I love to run and bike, love music and singing, and am overall a happy and positive person!

A little bit about me

Hi. I'm Sérgio from Berlin, Germany. I'm currently in my second year working as an Au Pair in Brooklyn NY. In my first year, I took care of a 9 and 3 year old (both with special needs) and now I'm with a family of three (a baby and two 5 year old twins). Before that, I used to work as a voluntary teacher in a bilingual (German-English) kindergarten/preschool in Germany for almost two years with kids aged from 6 months to 6 years. In addition to that, I occassionally babysat several kids of all ages and during COVID, I babysat two 5 year old twins full-time until I moved to the US.
I enjoy working in education and would like to have some additional experience while I'm in the US. I am a calm, patient, kind and respectful person. I highly value eye-to-eye connection and utterly care about a great relationship with the kids and parents! If that sounds good to you, I'd be more than happy hearing from you!! Thanks, Sérgio

A little bit about me

Hello!

I’m Daniela. I have over 10 years of experience as a nanny. I have just completed a post bac in physiology at Georgetown University this past year. I’m fluent in Italian and speak conversational French as well. I’ve worked with children with Autism, ADHD, and ODD. What makes me highly unique as a nanny is my ability to make children feel safe, joyful, and loved, while enhancing their academic skills, intellectual curiosity, and immersing them in cultural and linguistic experiences, which only serve to enrich their development into mindful and successful adults. My style is fun loving with gentle reminders to always be kind and polite.
I drive, swim as well, and hold a valid passport.

I can email my C.V.

Many Thanks! :)

A little bit about me

Hello! I am a warm, vibrant, responsible childcare provider completing my last semester at Texas A&M University this spring. I am majoring in applied mathematics with a minor in psychology, though I’ve found throughout my time in college that my greatest calling and gifts are working with children and people. I am a trained full-spectrum doula and am beginning to pursue this work online, and I have two years experience in early childhood education from my time at a Waldorf-style early learning center in my college town. My childcare style focuses on building self-confidence, curiosity, and creativity as the foundations for a resilient spirit. This year, I am finishing up my year-term as a nanny with a wonderful family in New York City and am searching for a position where I can build another great connection with a family for a longer term as I save and plan for future studies in midwifery or early childhood development!
