My name is Teresa! I’m a high school junior with big dreams of becoming a nurse. I’ve been babysitting for a while, and I especially love working with children who have special needs. I believe every kid deserves to feel safe and understood, and I always put my heart into making sure they do. I’m known for being reliable, patient, and genuinely caring. I also love pets, so if you have furry family members, that’s a bonus. I look forward to being a supportive and fun presence in your child’s life.
I can travel to neighboring suburbs/towns of East Meadow for work.

Hi I am a 16(turning 17 in June) student who is a junior in high school. I go to Holy Trinity which is located in Hicksville NY. I have been babysitting ever since I was younger (starting off with my family). I am currently starting to look at colleges and want to become a nursing major. I also work with special needs kids who are part of the ANCHOR program. I am a very outgoing and reliable person.
I have a fascination for childhood education including first aids training with a specialization in first years obtained during 6y at Peru and Spain in Emilia Barcia Boniffatti and Intermunicipal del Penedes Schools.
Over these 5 years I've worked with childrens from 4 months to 3yo, being part of their development and the obtainence of the walking and communication skills and potty training.
As a babysitter I work for love and kindness towards children putting them as a first priority.
I use to engage with children treating them with respect and authonomy considering their necessities and nature working with parents as a team.
I prefer to use strategies from different education authors as Montessori, Waldorf, Aucouturier and knowledge from different psychologist authors as Skinner, Piaget, Bandura and Vigotsky- as authonomy, daily tasks and home participation, symbolic game, behavioral charts, observation and imitation -all considering the children's necessities.
I also love spending time with children to be more than a sitter, but part of the family so is natural for them being under my supervision.

Hi! I’m Jalece, a psychology student at Lehman College with hands-on experience working with children and youth. I have experience as a summer camp counselor and group leader with NYC Parks, where I supervised children, led age-appropriate activities, encouraged positive behavior, and helped create a safe and inclusive environment. I’ve also provided childcare and supervision for elementary-aged children through my internships at Mosholu Montefiore Community Center (SYEP), including helping with activities and field trips.
I’m patient, responsible, organized, and enjoy creating fun activities that keep children engaged. I understand how important it is for parents to feel comfortable and confident when someone is caring for their child. My experience with childcare, youth supervision, group leadership, and safety awareness allows me to provide dependable and supportive care while making sure children feel comfortable, included, and valued.
