About me

I have had the pleasure of working with children for over 10 years. I have been a children's dance instructor, gymnastics coach, camp counselor, and of course a babysitter for many families across New York City! I have been a on-call sitter for Smartsitting for over 80 families in New York and have been a repeat sitter by request for these families too! I value an open and honest communication with the parents, and my goal is to make it the best experience possible for all!

I have been an overnight sitter for several families in NYC while the parents traveled, and I have also traveled with families on vacation.

A family I worked with several times asked me to take their young teen on a Spring Break vacation by myself, and I helped organize the housing, meals, and other details of the adventure for the two of us. We had a great time!

My energetic and creative nature have proven to be quite useful as a sitter. I truly enjoy discovering the joy and pure fun that can be had when the children and I just use our imagination. Creating new games, art, and hours of pretend! I can cook, bake, and assist with homework or enrichment activities as needed. Safety is my number one priority. I make a point to stay engaged and especially aware of a child's surroundings inside and while outdoors and/or on the playground.

O, and I love a good dance party! The kids pick the music and we invent all sorts of fancy dance moves!
