I'm Erin, A Babysitter/Nanny and Housekeeper in my mid-30s, with Filipino and Creole heritage, residing in Brooklyn. Alongside, I work part-time as a photographer and dance teacher, with roots in Chicago and 15 years of living experience in New York. My background includes teaching dance to high schoolers, participating in afterschool programs, and engaging in community outreach centers. Having helped raise my younger siblings and nieces/nephews, I've also worked as a house cleaner for short-term rentals. Known for my patience, respectfulness, and goal-oriented nature, I excel in challenging environments, demonstrating quick thinking and empathy. Open communication and mutual respect are paramount to me, and I thrive in environments where tasks are completed before deadlines. In my role as Housekeeper/Nanny/Babysitter, my schedule typically spans Monday to Friday, with some Saturdays optional. My responsibilities encompass full housekeeping, delicate item care, laundry, light ironing, and cooking for both children and adults, with expertise Read more in children aged 1-18. Additionally, I'm well-versed in navigating the city and am open to travel depending on the location. I can also offer lessons in dance, cooking, and music & film history. Specializing in children's mental, intellectual, social, and cultural development, I prioritize engaging with children and teaching them good manners. A key point to note is that I do not drive but rely on Ubers or the MTA for transportation. I'm available for both live-in and non-live-in arrangements. Moreover, if your children enjoy pets, I have a small dog (cavapoo) to add to the mix. Looking forward to potentially collaborating with you and your family!

Erin was and afterschool babysitter for our 8 year old for about a month. She was really kind and caring. Our son really enjoyed hanging out with her. She was interactive and was able to have fun/intelligent conversations and activities with him - which kept him quite engaged. Erin is very structured in her approach and ensured all the homework, chores were taken care of on a daily basis. I recommend.
