Hello everyone, ********Thank you for considering me for a booking request. However, I must request that you refrain from submitting a booking until you have had the opportunity to communicate with me. As a substitute teacher, I am currently unable to accommodate short-notice bookings.********* In my free time, I enjoy nature walks with my family, baking, circuit-based crafts, solving puzzles and Sudoku, making silly songs with my kids, and reading. These activities allow me to keep kids entertained without screens. I graduated with a Bachelor of Science in biology from Montclair State University. Plus, I’ve been teaching online for over five years, and I’ve also worked as a professional nanny and in daycare centers. I am delighted to provide childcare and nurturing for families. I can drive children to parks, museums, ice skating arenas, and sports practices at the YMCA, JCC, and various facilities. I am highly engaging with children of all ages, even when managing multiple children.
