About Margaret

Experience: 10 yrs

Hi, I'm Maggie! A reliable and caring babysitter (and cat mom!) based in Prospect Heights. By day, I work in health communications, and I'm currently pursuing my MSW at NYU. I have a background as a summer camp counselor and continue to work closely with children through volunteer roles, including a grief camp supporting children ages 8-14 navigating the loss of a parent. I also volunteer with Free Arts NYC, providing mentoring that builds confidence, communication skills, and emotional expression through art. I am certified in Youth Mental Health First Aid and bring an emotionally attuned approach to caregiving that balances structure and warmth. I'm comfortable with evening routines, homework help, creative play, and maintaining a safe and engaging environment tailored to each child's needs. I'm available for occasional date nights, weekend care, and extra support when needed. Dependable, easygoing, and committed to making parents' lives a little easier :)
