Hello, my name is Diana Fisher and I was born and raised in Rye Brook, NY. I have been caring for young children since I was a teenager and I am now 35 years old, very soon to be 36. From a young age I cared for my little brother teaching him to read, write and excel in math.
More recently I consistently provide care for my young nephews who are 9 and 12 years old. I have cared for them since they were babies and I still do when I visit them in Maryland. I love being around children they are so much fun and full of energy! I also am a great tutor and graduated from the University of Miami school of business in the honors program. I would love to care for children that I can help, teach, support and hopefully inspire. I also have experience teaching children golf with the First tee program as I was a collegiate golfer and still enjoy the game very much.
Please reach out to me if you would like me to care for your children. I am trustworthy, responsible and reliable. I also take safety of children very seriously.
Hi! My name is Olivia, I’m 17, and I have tons of real-life experience with little kids. I have four nephews and one niece all under the age of three, so I’m super comfortable with infants and toddlers and everything that comes with them—diapers, bottles, naps, and lots of playtime. I’m CPR certified, so your child’s safety is always my top priority. I’m patient, responsible, and pretty used to the chaos that can come with younger kids, but I genuinely love it. I enjoy keeping kids entertained, happy, and on their routine, and I’d love to help out your family!
