As a dedicated teaching artist with a strong background in early childhood and elementary education, I bring creativity, patience, and a deep understanding of child development to every interaction. In my last 2. 5 years living in Washington, DC, I've worked with children of varying abilities and ages through dance, music, movement, and creative play-nurturing not only their physical growth but also their confidence, imagination, and emotional well-being. I'm excited to bring my experience and care into a more personal setting as a nanny!

Marina is one of the best child caregivers in the area. I have watched her teach children’s dance classes and have learned so much through her. She knows how to have fun and make every kid around her smile. At the same time, she is serious about learning and getting the job done. She is ALWAYS punctual and reliable. She is easy to communicate with and warm. And she knows how to multitask and roll with the punches which is especially helpful with the high unpredictability of children. Marina is a child care expert, having all the tools kids may need—calming breath games, silly exercise games, educational activities! I would highly recommend Marina to any parent or caregiver! It’s one of the best choices you could make!
