Write a messageI’m a creative, warm and engaging young professional with a background in theater and film production. I recently returned to NYC from Los Angeles and am looking to meet a family to babysit regularly for, during the day/after school or in the evenings.
I’ve always enjoyed spending time with kids. During high school, I was a summer camp counselor, overseeing girls grades 2nd – 4th. I taught dance lessons, made string bracelets and read to the girls. In college, I was a summer nanny for a family with two daughters – a 12 year old and 14 year old. I grew incredibly close with the girls, driving them to their daily activities, helping them navigate the “girl politics” of summer camp and making them lunch and dinner. Together we bonded over the boy bands of the moment and the popular books they were reading with their friends. I prided myself on being someone they could come to with any issue.
While in graduate school in LA the past three years, I was a part-time nanny to a family with a 6 month old and a 3 year old. On some days, I would act as a mother’s helper – assisting with food shopping, playing with the girls while the mother prepared dinner and assisting at bed time. Other days I would be a full time babysitter, creating games and arts and crafts for the girls to play, watching movies and putting them to bed.
I’ve always enjoyed interacting with kids through creativity – be it playing pretend, arts and crafts, taking trips to museums or watching movies. I grew up with limited screen time and encourage the kids I spend time with to do the same.
