About Theresa

Hi! My name is Theresa, and I'm a dependable, compassionate, and highly motivated caregiver based in New York City. I recently graduated summa c. laude from John Jay College of Criminal Justice and have experience caring for children through babysitting my nephews over the years. I previously worked as a lifeguard, where I developed strong skills in safety awareness, attentiveness, communication, and staying calm in high-pressure situations. I'm patient, responsible, organized, and genuinely enjoy creating a safe, supportive, and engaging environment for children. I'm comfortable helping with homework, meal preparation, bedtime routines, light housekeeping, and keeping children entertained through creative activities, reading, conversation, and outdoor activities. Families would describe me as caring, adaptable, and reliable. I always strive to make children feel safe, encouraged, and cared for while giving parents peace of mind.
