About Merit
Experience: 5 yrs
Hi! I'm Merrit, i'm 20 years old and currently go to school in NYC earning my BFA in musical theater while double majoring in psychology. I hope to be a performer and either a behavior analyst or psychologist for children with specific behavioral needs! I'm located in the UES and am willing to travel up to two miles. I've been babysitting for my friends, neighbors and family for over 4 years and have a true love for kids! I also am an elementary substitute teacher and specialize in teaching the kiddos who need a little more love. I have taught dance to elementary aged kids as well and I am also the director of a recreational summer camp program. Teaching in different settings has given me a wide skillset when it comes to watching kids. I love coming up with crafts, telling stories and going on fun adventures with the kids! I am certified in CPR and first aid and also can cook and clean if needed. If you're in need of a sitter i'm a great match! Cant wait to chat! :)
Most recent review
Merrit was a substitute teacher in my school and also in my behavior support classroom. She is so patient with children and our staff can’t wait for her to be on breaks from college so that she can sub for them because the kids love her so much. She would love your children and take good care of them!
