Anthony Santiago
Brooklyn,NY
Summary
Hi parents - my name is Anthony!
I got my start in Chicago, IL where I was a student at Roosevelt University for Acting and a part-time Nanny.
Exploring the world with toddlers and building the discipline for the dreaded ... bedtime routine for kids six and up.
When Covid came around, I became a Pod Counselor for the Roscoe Village neighborhood. Known around as: Mr. Anthony. Or as my kids liked to call me, Carrot.
I would assist my kiddos with their homework, creating fun tasks during breaks, making sure they were fed, and keeping an eye on any extra tabs opened during class; kids really know their way around technology!
Since then, I’ve continued on and have found a passion hanging out with your little ones. I am happy to be of service for the betterment of your child/children, so please, feel free to be comfortable with open communication! Teamwork makes the dream work.
In addition, I have experience with changing diapers, light cooking, pets, house services, and am CPR and First Aid certified.
Can’t wait to meet you!
