Newly retired RN, mother of two, available to provide childcare, your home or mine; flexible schedule, overnights possible also. For the past 5 years I have provided routine or per diem childcare for dozens of families, as well as cared for children at hotels and resorts for special events. I have cared for children of all ages from preemie to 12 years old. Babies and toddlers are my specialty and favorite age group. Superb references from parents and kids alike! Spring, summer and fall I prefer children to come to my home in the Village of New Paltz. Everything is within easy walking distance, like fabulous playgrounds, indoor community Play Space, the fabulous Moriello pool, the library with its wonderful children's programs, nature trails and the Empire State Rail Trail. I do not own a TV and almost all time with your children will be spent outdoors. I'm extremely energetic, fit and fun. BLS certified.
We were very happy with Gabriela, who we hired to watch our 1.5 year old while in town for a wedding. She kept us posted with photos and updates, helping us have peace of mind while we were away for a long stretch. She was playful and our son took to her right away. We would hire here again if we were in town.
