I'm a professional nanny looking for a family! previously cared for twins that I love dearly for a year. Before that position, I took care of three children (2-year-old twins and a 1-year-old) . I was with them for over 2 years! I know it's super important to do lots of talking at an early age so I'm constantly talking with them, engaging them and following their queues and asking them what they're interested in doing that day! I have over 13 years of experience as a nanny and I have wonderful references and I look forward to speaking with you

Hello 👋🏻My name is Siri… yes spelled just like Apple’s AI assistant, but (fun fact) I was actually born before it was even released! I am 22 years old and absolutely love working with kids. I have been babysitting on and off since I was 15 years old, and continue to work with families to this day.On top of babysitting, I have also worked with kids through a YMCA summer camp program. In other words, I am no stranger to watching kids in a group setting as well as mote individualized care. I also have previous experience working with individuals with various limitations and disabilities as a DSP, and am comfortable caring for children with similar needs. No matter what the setting is, I am passionate about helping kids grow, learn, create, and explore the world and their environments in whatever ways I can. I am a dedicated, hardworking, reliable, and honest worker who loves open communication and welcomes constructive criticism always!Outside of a work setting, I love to spend my free time playing instruments (clarinet being my main interest), listening to music, reading poetry, spending time with friends and family, and listening to people’s life stories.Truth be told, I am even still exploring my hobbies and interests while also trying to figure out my long term career goals. In the meantime however, I feel honored and privileged to be spending my time and energy doing something I love so much. I look forward to finding more families that I can provide care for through this app and to meet some more outstanding kiddos!Thank you so much for reading my bio :)

Hi! My name is Jess, and I’m a caring, patient, and dependable sitter located in Forest Hills with over five years of childcare experience. I currently work as a Registered Behavior Technician, supporting children with autism and other developmental or behavioral needs.When caring for children, I take time to learn their personalities, interests, and routines. I keep them engaged with activities such as arts and crafts, coloring, reading, storytelling, board games, imaginative play, and games based on their favorite characters, shows, or interests—including Roblox. I also provide homework help and support children with reading, writing, communication, social skills, and other age-appropriate learning activities.I use patience, encouragement, and positive reinforcement to help children express their feelings, follow routines, take turns, transition between activities, and work through difficult moments. I’m also happy to help with simple snacks or meals, daily and bedtime routines, and keeping children’s play areas organized.My goal is to create a safe, fun, and comfortable environment where every child feels understood and can be themselves. I value open communication with parents and will always treat their children with kindness and respect. Alongside my childcare work, I’m currently completing my English degree at Queens College and am happy to provide care in homes with pets.
