Over the past year, I have gained valuable babysitting experience caring for children ranging from infants to school-age kids. My responsibilities included preparing meals, organizing age-appropriate activities, helping with homework, maintaining bedtime routines, and ensuring a safe and nurturing environment. I’ve developed strong communication skills with both children and parents, and I’m confident handling common situations like minor first aid and managing screen time. This experience has helped me become patient, dependable, and attentive to children's needs.

Hello!My name is Aasha and I live on the Upper West Side. I am a graduate student at Columbia University studying creative writing (nonfiction) and literary translation (specializing in Twi, French, Spanish) in search of a full time or part time position starting as soon as possible. I only have one class on Mondays and Tuesdays afternoons. I can work mornings, afternoons Wednesday-Friday, and evenings.I was previouslya full time baby nurse and nanny to the toddler 12 hours a day. I also cook (and enjoy doing it!) and clean. I have an Honors BFA in Literature and I can commit long term or on temporary basis. I have a child led learning- Montessori approach and I encourage pretend play. I'm a lover of languages, music, the arts, and creativity! I'm a warm and gentle person but definitely firm when need be, when it comes to discipline I like to maintain what the parents have already started. I personally follow gentle and respectful parenting techniques of discipline and communication. I also cook and clean for the entire family. I can speak some Mandarin, German and I'm still learning French(A2 level)!I was also an au pair in Bordeaux). I believe I'm the perfect fit because I'm proactive, well trained and very gentle. I have the professionalism to keep up with a busy household (and keep everything clean!) and the tenderness to help raise gentle, kind and curious children. I have eleven years of experience as a nanny with children ages 0-14 years. I'm an amazing cook and can get picky eaters to eat just about anything! I can also teach your children the instruments I'm classically trained in (viola, violin, cello) . I hope to meet you soon.

Hi! My name is Magnolia, and I’m a reliable, caring, and experienced babysitter who truly loves working with kids. As an older sister, I’ve grown up helping with homework, planning fun activities, handling bedtime routines, and making sure everyone feels safe and heard. Being a big sister has taught me patience, responsibility, and how to balance fun with structure.I’m happy to help whether you need a sitter planned well in advance or at the very last minute. I understand how unpredictable schedules can be, and I’m always willing to step in when you need extra support.When I’m not babysitting, I love spending time with my adorable golden retriever, who keeps me active and outdoors. Having a dog has also made me comfortable around pets, so I’m more than happy to care for furry family members too!My goal is to create a safe, positive, and engaging environment where your children feel comfortable and excited for our time together. I look forward to meeting your family! 🐾✨
