About Malena

Hi! My name is Malena and I am a junior at Mount Holyoke College pursuing a self designed major in English, Theatre, and Music. I have always loved working with kids, even before starting formal babysitting jobs over six years ago. My approach starts with getting to know each child and what their needs and interests are, rather than a simple one size fits all method. I want to honor that every child is different, and I work hard to meet each kid where they are so that they feel comfortable, safe, and supported. I lead with curiosity, creativity, empathy, and compassion, seeking to build trusting relationships with both child and parent. I look forward to working with you and your family!
