Former Kindergarten Teacher Looking For A Nanny/Private Education Position

I was laid off in June from my permanent nanny position in NYC with 3 children. I worked a temporary job over the summers months and I am now looking for a long-term permanent position in Northern California. I have 4 years of experience as a full-time professional nanny, 1 year of experience teaching in my own kindergarten classroom, 5 summers of experience working as a camp counselor and in a leadership position (I am great at planning fun activities!), and 16+ years of working with children in general. I am truly passionate about working with children and hope to find a position with a family where I can put all my skills to work! I am enthusiastic, hardworking, a strong swimmer, a safe driver with a valid driver's license, and also work really well on a team. I am comfortable working with ages 6 months through 10 years old. I would like to work with the children on school work and educational activities throughout the day rather than just helping with basic care of children.

Hello, my name is Léa! I want to start by saying thank you for taking the time to look at my profile. My six years of childcare experience comes from being a Nanny, Babysitter, and tutor to three different private families living in Connecticut. I have nurtured and cared for children from infancy to the age of 12. My number one belief system is creating a positive, happy, learning environment for children, one in which they feel protected and may thrive. My level and years of experience in childcare make me a qualified candidate for any household looking for a fun, caring, reliable Nanny, one who loves what they do and will help in assisting your household.

By great measure, Leandra has made a meaningful impact on my family and I than anyone else I've hired.

Not only is she dependable and responsible, she is patient, empathetic and passionate. My family and I are so happy to have met her!

Active Tutor And Flexible Nanny

I graduated from Bryn Mawr College in May 2020 with a degree in Geology and Political Science. After completing my third summer as a commercial salmon fisherman in Alaska, I nannied and facilitated remote learning for a family of children ages 3, 7, and 9. My first tutoring experience was in high school as a volunteer for non English-speaking students. Since then I have worked as a classroom assistant for elementary-aged students in Nicaragua and as a private tutor for families in Santiago, Chile. 10 years with the Girl Scouts (the final three spent as a camp counselor) have taught me how to engage children with diverse learning styles and personalities. I have on and off provided childcare for children ages one to 13 since 2014. I speak fluent Spanish, am (twice) formerly lifeguard trained and CPR certified, and have a clean driving record. I am an avid runner who loves playing sports, cooking, creating art, and going on outdoor adventures--nature and city inclusive.

It's with much pleasure that I'm able to recommend Erica L. for your childcare needs. She started working with us when my children were almost 2 years old and 5 months old, over the course of several years. I would trust her to watch my now 8 and 10 year old in a heartbeat. Erica consistently arrived at our home on time, ready to engage with our kids, and with a smile on. Her positive energy is noticeable and she exudes happiness. She is kind, compassionate, and intelligent. You don't have to worry about a sitter who will just sit and watch TV or be a ghostly entity in the house, Erica is very engaging with kids and extremely personable. My children really look forward to spending time with Erica and they also look up to her as a role model. I have to say, I look up to her as well, she is a dynamic young woman!! She has a natural talent when it comes to childcare. If you choose to hire Erica you can be confident that you're getting the best help for your family!!

Hi! A little bit about myself, I am originally from New Orleans and I currently reside in New York City. I have been in child care since I was young. The classic weekend babysitter, and worked my way up to doing everything from full time nannying to working in daycares and even as a Behavioral Therapist at a center for children with Autism. Though I have no kids of my own I have always been a very maternal person. I have experience with kids of all ages, but I think 1-2 is an especially fun age because they're at the very beginning of cognitively understanding and mastering physical space, it's so fun to watch them grow so quickly! I also love caring for older kids too. I love making museums fun with scavenger hunts and eye spy. I'm great with homework and coming up with fun mnemonics to help kids remember the things they learn! I am responsible and have lots of experience. I am also willing to help with cooking and meal prep (I was a private chef for two years).

We hired Nneka when our son was three months old and we were a pair of shell shocked first time parents. She impressed us with her thorough answers in our initial interview and again with her confident and comfortable manner in handling our son during her second interview. Three and a half years later, we have an extremely happy, healthy, social, curious and loving son with a significant amount of that being attributed to Nneka's excellent care. She kept him engaged in local library events, museums, neighborhood parks and play dates. In fact, he had a bigger social circle than we do thanks to Nneka's outgoing nature. We knew from our son's birth that he would eventually attend a daycare owned by a family friend when he reached the age of two. So it was with mixed emotions that we parted ways, but have continued to look back fondly on those two years we had Nneka in our every day lives.

Home Educator Looking For Covid-Careful Family.

Responds within a few days

Hi! Nice to meet you. I'm working toward my Master of Music Education degree at Columbia University but I have decided to take the year off from my two year program due to the covid-crisis. My undergraduate degree is a BA in Psychology and French Literature with minors in Spanish and World History. I currently teach private cello lessons to a few students and am working toward Suzuki certification in violin and piano. As an undergraduate, I worked part time as a cook at a health-food deli. I was planning to seek out work in a school this year but I have to be very cautious since my sweetheart has severe asthma. I am looking to work for a family that is also very covid-careful. I would be a great fit for a family that loves creativity, learning, and time outdoors. I love working with children and watching them grow into the people they are meant to be. My broad educational background makes me very qualified to supervise online learning and to plan in-person learning activities.

I have a background in education having worked as a teacher for international college students for many years.

I like to see how children grow up and understand the world, I teach them to share and to be kind. With the consent of families I can go to museums , shows, the Zoo, and the Garden. Some of the families I have worked with still invite me to their parties, and their children still remember and embrace me. That is the best feeling, the part that really touches my heart. I can provide references.

We were super lucky to find Lena when our son was just 1.5 months old. She worked with us full time for several months. She quickly established routines with him, which made our time with him on weekends, etc. much more enjoyable. She's very warm, nurturing, and focuses on developmental activities at all stages. She also makes sure he gets to spend time outside every day. We can tell our son really enjoys having her care for him. We came to trust and depend on Lena very quickly and were looking forward to working with her for years. However, my husband and I decided to move out of state to be closer to family. We are really heartbroken to leave Lena and even offered for her to come with us, but she has a family in NYC.
