I have spent the past six years caring for children ages 4-11. I like to focus on getting kids to explore and create, whether that be art, reading, or learning a new game. I am no stranger to caring for kids in larger families and do my best to make sure all kids are involved and having a good time under my care. I have previously worked in tutoring for elementary math and English as well as short-term child care.Some facts about me are I love languages and am conversational in French, which I studied through the international baccalaureate program. I also sing and play two instruments-I love performing and teaching music! I am currently pursuing my bachelor's at Macaulay Honors at John Jay College as a full time student. I am availability Friday through Monday with flexibility for Wednesday afternoons if needed.

I am a former Pre-k teacher at the Corning Children’s center. I have experience working with kids with developmental disabilities and physical disabilities. In the last ten years I have had a few nannying jobs, worked with adults with developmental disabilities, as well as subbed at the center I taught at. I was known for teaching social emotional learning in my classroom. About me: I love listening to any kind of live music. I frequently go to concerts or local events with bands. My favorite concert was Queen with Adam Lambert. I’m also a huge animal lover. I have two cats, Jack and Bella. They are both rescues. Lastly, I like to spend my free time at a park or hiking near a waterfall.

I have been a trusted babysitter since the age of 11… you heard that right. From what started as caring for my toddler next door neighbor (and later his infant brother) to nannying for a family of three children for 5 years, I have always been a trusted child care provider in my community. I mainly provided care for my neighbors until I became a junior in high school and had my first β€œreal” babysitting gig for two children, one in middle school the other following close behind. In my senior year of high school I started my journey with a local family. My duties for this job were getting the three children ready for school, preparing breakfast, packing lunches, and making sure they arrived to school safely via car. They later got a dog which I also cared for and was tasked to stop in mid day to walk her. When the children from this job aged out of needing a babysitter I stopped providing care, but still hold a great relationship with the family. Aside from nannying, I also have 4 years experience working part time in a private in home day care. While working here, I cared for infants and pre school age children. My most recent experiences with child care include staying overnight with two children as their mom has a job that requires traveling once every month or two. I make it my goal to make the girls the most comfortable and at ease while their mom is away and I think I get that done pretty well (the mom says they count how many sleeps away until gianna comes, I kind of feel like Santa Clause). Babysitting has gave me such great opportunities and allowed me to create amazing relationships with families in my community.

The past year I have been working with 3 different families with babies between the ages of 3 weeks - 8 months and I have letters of recommendation from each!Additionally, although I have a multitude of experience I do not have any formal training, but I am half Mexican am come from a large extended family where I have been watching, taking care of, and helping with the care of my cousins, nieces, and nephews since I was around 10 years old. Which includes changing diapers, bottle feeding, meals, naptime, and playtime. And the ages I've watched range from infants to 12 years old. The youngest I have babysat/cared for outside of my family is a 3 week old (beginning November 2025-Present) and several 5-month-olds in 2023 and between 2025-2026, both caring for them on my own and also as a mommy's/parents' helper. I am also currently taking an Adult, Child, and Baby First Aid/CPR/AED with the Red Cross this summer and will be getting CPR certified after the completion of the course. I already know the Heimlich maneuver, although the procedure/protocol is different for children not yet walking and under the age of 1 year. I'd be happy to discuss my experience further or answer any questions.
