Hi! My name is Marielle and I am a theater artist and experienced educator who absolutely adores working with kids! I studied theater and writing at Brown University, and taught playwriting to youth in Ecuador on a Fulbright. I have extensive experience teaching kids creative writing and theater games, and I always have new creative (and safe!) game ideas up my sleeve that your kids will adore. I also teach US history part-time at a school in Bushwick, and am a history tour guide on the Lower East Side. I love to awaken kids’ curiosity for learning while babysitting, reading with them, and encouraging them to start creative projects that will stimulate their academic growth! I speak fluent Spanish and French, and I can contribute to your child’s learning in these areas. Safety is also my utmost priority, as well as checking in with parents to make sure the specific needs of your child are being honored. I have 5 years of experience teaching Special Olympics, and have worked as an executive functioning coach, so I am well-versed in adapting to different learning styles. Working with me as a babysitter is about keeping your kids safe, healthy, and more than just entertained. I aim for every session to be uplifting for children’s emotional growth, joyful, and educational!

Hi! My name is Fatima, I am currently a student at Fordham University and live in the UWS. I am offering child care and am more than happy to work with pets of any nature. I have worked with toddlers and kids since I was 15. However, I've been lucky enough to be surrounded by children pretty regularly my whole life. In addition I was a teaching assistant for the Center for Talent Development program for gifted youth through Northwestern University. I love to participate in both creative and physical activities with kids including arts and crafts as well as playing any sports if they are interested (I was a gymnast for 9 years and a tennis player for 6 years). I am bilingual (fluent in Spanish and English), able to drive if needed, take direction very well, can cook, and am extremely patient when it comes to varying moods that children are naturally bound to have. I am well versed in negotiating with young ones so they may feel heard. I always strive to make sure we are able to reach a middle ground when needed that is appreciated by the parents as well as the children. I have offered to take care of family members' and friends' children on several occasions because I am passionate about interacting with, understanding, and caring for children seeing as my career aspirations relate to such ideals. I am also older sister to two wonderful siblings.

Hi! My name is Aliya — I recently left my job and am looking to take a break from the corporate world.
