About me
Born in a family of six, I was introduced pretty early to childcare responsibilities without even knowing one could do that for a living. I always helped my parents take care of my younger siblings. I worked for 5 years as a private nanny for two children age 5 and 2 years old when I moved to New York. With this family, I picked up the two children from school and daycare, helped with homework and French practice, prepared their dinner and took them out to different events and activities. I also engaged with tasks such as diaper change, dressing, feeding, cleaning, and sanitizing toys. For the past 2 years I have served hundreds of wonderful families as an on-call babysitter through 2 babysitting agencies here in New York City. I worked as on-call for date nights, live-in for a few days when parents went on a short trip, providing care for groups of children in wedding events, group play date nights, festivals and others. I have a total of six-and-a-half years of experience in New York with ages ranging from newborn - 10 years old.
I enjoy playing outside, arts and crafts, reading and creative play. I believe every childcare provider should be a role model to kids through the way they interact with them. Moreover, I believe children must have a memorable experience for the time we spend together.
