About me

I am a Brooklyn native who grew up in the vibrant neighborhood of Bedford-Stuyvesant as the youngest of 2. I have always enjoyed cooking, baking, and the performing arts since I was a child. Those interests led me to becoming a Nutrition major and Dance minor when I attended Hunter College. After college, I spent a lot of time volunteering at a few schools in Brooklyn as a Dance teacher, exam proctor, and field trip chaperone.

My experience with childcare began when I was in high school. During that time, my mom was laid off from her job, making her available to care for some of the babies in our neighborhood. As a result, there were always children in my home and I learned many valuable childcare skills. I then began to care for those children on my own and eventually started my professional childcare positions shortly thereafter. I signed up for the app-based childcare platform, Urbansitter, and went on to provide occasional, date night, or temporary full day care for over 75 families, with 270+ bookings, over 55 repeat families, earning 70+ 5-star reviews. I have cared for children from 3 months to 13 years old.

I was able to work with a family of two children (6 y/o girl, 11 y/o boy) for 2 years. My responsibilities included coming in early, packing their lunches, school dropoffs/pickups, homework and reading help, transporting them to/from various activities, cooking dinner and getting them ready for bed. I have also been a temporary nanny for a 9 month old girl. My responsibilities included changing diapers, preparing bottles and feeding solids, playing, and taking her out on walks and to the playground. For this particular little one, I also had to implement some strategies to help navigate her separation anxiety.

I am a loving, playful, engaging, creative thinker who brings these qualities to any position I hold. Some of my interests include singing, dancing, and art. I love to share those skills with the children in my care. My nanny philosophy is "Consistency is key." I always do my best to work with parents to create a safe, fun, and stable environment for their kids. Childcare is my passion and I hope to be a great fit for your family.
