Meet Salia: A nanny and babysitter in Manhattan, NY

Hi, my name is Salia, and I'm currently a sophomore at Fordham University. As one of thirteen siblings and with many younger cousins, I grew up caring for children from an early age. As the middle child, I naturally took on responsibility for the youngest ones, which taught me patience, creativity, and strong multitasking skills. I’ve also babysat for multiple families in NYC, where I was born and raised, so I know the city well and can confidently handle outings, activities, and safe transportation. Families describe me as reliable, nurturing, and energetic. I am CPR and First Aid certified, an excellent home cook with dreams of opening my own restaurant, and I enjoy tutoring children to support their learning. I’m also great at keeping bedtime routines smooth and stress-free. My goal is always to create a safe, fun, and positive environment where children can thrive.
