I’m a 17-year-old high school student who’s worked hard to build strong communication and academic skills. I've earned the New York State Seal of Biliteracy, which demonstrates my proficiency in reading, writing, and speaking English and Spanish, and I'm currently working on my Civil Literacy Seal! In school, I’ve helped friends and classmates study and spent time supporting younger students with their homework. Those experiences taught me how to be patient and be able to explain things in a way that actually makes sense. I meet people where they’re at. Everything I’ve learned so far helps me show up as someone reliable, understanding, and ready to help other students feel more confident.

The older sister who knows how to have fun (and how to get them to listen lol)

I absolutely adore working with children! I love that I can still tap into my own inner child while spending time with them. Kids are so incredibly cute and full of wonder. As the older sister of two, I've always been cautious and observant, ensuring their safety and well-being. I find their unique personalities and outspoken nature incredibly entertaining – they truly have been the funniest people I know!

24 year old artist interested in childcare

I was born in Park Slope, but grew up in a small town on Long Island until college, where I moved back to NYC. Pursued a dual degree, my attitude was to cram in as much learning as I could while I was in school. Since graduating in 2024, I've had different service jobs but find it hard to balance my need to create in spite of that. I know working with kids in the past has filled my cup, so I look forward to creating these connections again! My childcare experience spans across coaching sports, volunteering at the library for childcare programs, as well as in home babysitting for neighbors & family friends. When I was younger, I played softball and volleyball for many years. In which I garnered experience coaching, and began coaching teams of (elementary to middle school) girls for volleyball, as well as 1on1 sessions for softball. In high school, I would volunteer at an afterschool daycare programs at my local library, and read books, as well as lead crafts to groups of children varying from ages 2-10. In my adulthood, I have in-house babysat multiple times, typically in the evening, for kids as young as 3-8.

Speak to families of children with special needs they’ve cared for before.
