I am an experienced early childhood educator with 5 years of teaching experience in early preschool and preschool classrooms. I specialize in supporting children ages 2 to 5 through engaging, developmentally appropriate lessons that build strong foundational skills in literacy, handwriting, and phonological awareness. I use trusted, research-based programs such as Handwriting Without Tears and Heggerty Phonological Awareness to make learning fun, hands-on, and effective.

Experienced infant specialist with 16 years of childcare experience caring for children from as young as 3 weeks old through adolescence. I specialize in newborn and infant care, providing calm, attentive, and nurturing support while helping families maintain consistent routines and a peaceful environment. I’m especially well-suited for families seeking reliable infant care, evening/date-night coverage, or overnight support when children are asleep. I hold dual Bachelor’s degrees from Brandeis University in Biology and Health: Science, Society and Policy. My background includes working as a Teaching Assistant at the Lemberg Children’s Center, serving as a Youth Counselor with the Police Athletic League in Brooklyn, and teaching violin to children of all ages. I currently work part-time as a middle school teacher and professional violinist. Families describe me as patient, dependable, warm, and highly attentive. I genuinely love supporting children in their earliest developmental stages and creating a safe, comforting environment where both children and parents feel at ease.

She was so wonderful! Our son slept in her arms most of the time he was so peaceful
