Write a messageHi! I am Maria, 42, from Sicily, Italy. I have been living in NY for 8 years and I have more than 10 years experience babysitting, tutoring, and teaching.
I moved to New York to attend a high-level Study Program in Arts with the Whitney Museum and to pursue my career as a visual artist. I lived in London for 7 years before moving to NY.
I have been working with kids in NY for 7 years, as a nanny, babysitter, kindergarten teacher and tutor. I have experience with babies, toddlers, and kids 3-12. As a nanny, I took care of a little boy from when he was 18 months, for 2 years. I have been babysitting several kids, up to three at a time.
In 2013 I started Girotondo, an Italian private coop school for kids aged 1-4, where I was the main teacher of about 7 to 9 kids, working together with another teacher who was assisting me. I was organizing every day different activities, including art and crafts, music, gym and many more. I was also in charge of teaching Italian, potty training, and lunchtime. I worked at Girotondo until June 2018, then I quit because I needed to spend more time in my studio. Since then I have been occasionally babysitting, especially in the evening or on the weekend.
I like to keep the kids active, bringing activities, playing with them and, of course, taking care of their needs.
I also currently teach drawing to teenagers, in case you are interested in art classes too.
