About me
I'm from Montclair, and I'm a recent college graduate with a degree in Theater and English a literature. I have experience teaching and babysitting for children ages 2+ with behavioral issues, severe allergies, and other special needs. I have a valid drivers license, as well.
I have worked with many different families in the area. I've worked with kids with allergies, behavioral needs, special needs, and have maintained consistency in the home through detailed instructions from parents. I am here to help you continue creating a healthy environment and lifestyle for your child. If your child has certain needs, or restrictions I will always make those things happen per your instructions. I've worked with families with one child, two children, three, and some families with twins. I've also worked parties and events where up to 20 children were present. I try to make each child feel important and comfortable.
I've been watching children since I was 13 years old. I started as a mother's helper, and went on to eventually be a babysitter, nanny, tutor, and driver! I love developing strong relationships with the families I work with. There are some kids I've been watching for nearly 10 years!
My number one rule for watching and nurturing children is teaching empathy. I strongly believe in teaching kids to respect the people in their lives and to always strive to be kind.
I've cooked and done after-school routines with many families I've worked with, and I am able to put together healthy meals with a short prep time so I can give the kids more attention.
I'm excited to be working with new families, and I really hope to work with you!
