• Comfortable with pets

I’m a dedicated caregiver who truly loves being around children. I graduated Summa Cum Laude with a Bachelor of Science in Accounting and Finance, and I’m currently pursuing my Master’s in Data Analytics and International Finance. Despite my academic path, my heart has always been drawn to childcare. Over the past five years, I’ve gained extensive experience babysitting and nannying for infants, toddlers, and pre-teens. Being the oldest of five siblings taught me how to be patient, nurturing, and resourceful—skills I use every day when looking after little ones. I’m available Monday through Wednesday after 5:30 p.m., and all day Thursday through Sunday. In addition to my babysitting work, I also served as a Patient Care Technician at Albany Med, where I was trained in CPR, self-care, mobility, phlebotomy, and glucose testing. This role helped me stay calm under pressure and provide compassionate support in any situation. I’ve also worked Read more as a youth leader at a community center, where I guided kids aged 2 to 24. I made sure they were picked up from school, protected, tidy , and fed. I helped with homework while encouraging them to express their creativity and personal interest. From overseeing their daily routines to planning creative projects and field trips, I learned the importance of balancing structure and fun. I love being a sitter because caring for children feels natural and rewarding to me. I’ve always had a nurturing and patient side, being the oldest of five siblings and helping my mom raise them. I am skilled in meal prep, diaper changes, sleep strategies, and I have a drivers license. I take great pride in being someone families can trust, and nothing makes me happier than watching kids grow, learn, and feel truly cared for.

Trust & safety
