Summary

My very first job was babysitting, at age 10. I worked with kids all through my teens and twenties, as a way to support myself through medical school. I've always loved the simplicity of being with kids. Children demand care, creativity and a sense of humor - three of my favorite things. After that, I worked for 10 years as a Physician Assistant in a busy NYC hospital. Due to COVID, I left the healthcare industry and am seeking new career opportunities. I decided to return to nannying, since it is the one job that has always brought me joy. I have 20+ years experience working with newborns, children, and families, in addition to my professional career as a PA. I believe the way we treat our children sets the tone for how we treat the rest of the world. Building a loving caring world starts in the home. I am passionate about healthy living, cooking, nature, sustainability, music, dancing, and enjoying life to the fullest. Wherever I go, I bring with me an open mind, a big heart, and a lot of joy.
