“ Hey parents! I'm 22 years old and I live in Queens. I'm the first born and a big sister with an 11-year gap in between. I've learned firsthand what it takes to be a caregiver at a young age.

Hey parents! I'm 22 years old and I live in Queens. I'm the first born and a big sister with an 11-year gap in between. I've learned firsthand what it takes to be a caregiver at a young age. My 1st care giving job was with a group of 8 toddlers. My duties were feeding, entertaining, nap time, and clean ups. My 2nd job was at a daycare center in Jamaica, Queens. Not only was I a caregiver, but I was responsible for teaching. I taught ABC's, numbers, shapes and colors through music, dance, and other creative ways. Aside from people mistaking my sister and other family members for my kids, I also take care of the neighborhood kids on occasion and I work at the daycare at my church.

I mesh really well with kids. I've worked with children from toddlers to grade school. I know all the games, all the songs, and most of the things that interest them. Most of that is because I'm a big kid myself, but also because my 10-year-old sister and her friends love to keep me in the loop. I work great under pressure and I'm a "look on the bright side" kind of person. When it comes to the type of child that drives the babysitter crazy, they've met their match! The loudest have learned, I'm louder! And the ones who spin have learned I can spin faster! I know when to play and when to get down to business! I love love all animals! I would rub a lions belly (if she would let me).

Patience is one of my strongest traits. I enjoy learning and connecting the dots with everything. I'm always tilting my head and trying to figure out the "small print." I'm really good with homework help, because I know how to explain things in a way that kids can understand. I get their light bulb to turn on and stay on! I'm more than just a babysitter. I become a friend to your child. I graduated from audio engineering school in 2012. I'm always writing/creating music. I'm even working on building my own home studio. I love to sing, rap, and act. I'm a gym dweller. I enjoy staying fit and being healthy. I watch more cartoons then a 22-year-old should. I'm a video gamer and an even bigger reader. I love music - I'm like a walking radio. I will be going to college for forensic science. I'm aiming to become a medical examiner.

I currently work in a Jewish home as a babysitter for a 10-year-old girl, so I do have Kosher experience. My duties are school pick ups, meal preparation, and homework help. I am available for late nights and early mornings including overnights and weekends.
