Experience: 6 yrs
With 6+ years of experience in childcare and early childhood education, I bring a nurturing, playful, and creative approach to caregiving. I've taught visual arts at Haus of Performing Arts, served as Assistant Director at Steve & Kate's in San Francisco, and worked as a counselor at the Art Farm in NYC. Currently, I'm pursuing my Master's in English at Columbia University. My style is hands-on and imaginative - I love using drawing, dancing, reading, writing, and puzzles to inspire self-expression and curiosity in kids. I believe in treats of all kinds - from sticker rewards to silly stories and spontaneous dance breaks. Minimum rate: $30 Reliable via public transit and has drivers license with clean driving record. In my free time, I enjoy hiking, meditation, and reading with my book club. If you're looking for a thoughtful, experienced caregiver who brings heart and creativity to every day, I'd love to connect!
We recently hired Laila for our 4 year old son and she has been wonderful. Punctual, great communication and very patient. Would highly recommend.
