Hi! I am 21 years old and attend Oberlin College in Ohio where I'm studying psychology. I grew up in Brooklyn Heights and have lived here my whole life, so I am comfortable with public transportation, going to park, and other fun attractions for kids.When home on breaks, I live with my two parents, older brother, younger sister and dog. I have experience sitting for kids ages 1-9; this includes playing with them and getting them dinner together, bathing them and putting them in pjs, and reading books to put them to sleep. Sometimes I would bring my dog because one girl loved to play with him. I am allergic to dogs and cats, but I am able to work with families who have dogs that do not shed. In my free time I love to bake, paint, sew, play frisbee, and take my dog to the park. While my certification has lapsed, I have taken courses in CPR and first aid.

I am passionate about providing a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for your little ones. I believe in engaging children in creative activities such as arts and crafts, outdoor play, and educational games. I am also comfortable helping with homework, meal preparation, and light household duties as needed. I am not CPR and First Aid certified, but I am willing to get certified. I understand the importance of clear communication, so I make it a priority to work closely with parents to meet the unique needs of their families. I expect payment for the full time of the original booking. If a booking is cancelled within 24 hours of the start time, the full rate will still be due. Cancellations made within 48 hours of the start time will require a 50% payment, as it can be difficult to secure alternative work on short notice. I look forward to meeting you and your children!
