Experience: 7 yrs
I am currently enrolled in the Masters of International Affairs program at Columbia University, having previously obtained a Bachelor's degree in Political Science from Fordham University. For nearly six years, I have gained experience in babysitting and tutoring while balancing my studies and internships. As a freshman in college in 2016, I served as a teacher's assistant and afterschool tutor for a 2nd grade class at an elementary school in Midtown, which led me to pursue babysitting and tutoring part-time. Since then, I have provided care for children ranging in age from 6 months old to 13 years old, with my most recent consistent positions involving tutoring a 7th-grade student with learning disabilities and babysitting an 8-year-old with occasional homework assistance. I am currently contracted with Care. com as a backup babysitter. Cancellations must be made 72 hours in advance. Otherwise, I would still be paid for the designated hours. Also minimum is 5 hours.
Diane is such a caring individual. She is gentle, kind, and loving with our kids, and I’m always comforted knowing they’re in her hands. She first started with us part-time when our firstborn, now 4, was about 18 months old, and continued with us more ad hoc as he got older. She’s now caring for our second ad hoc as well, who is 22 months. She is wonderful at navigating attachment and transitions with little ones and always manages to make them laugh and feel at ease. Some days she’s with just one of our kids, and other days she handles both of them with a breeze. She’s responsible, dependable, and a great communicator, which has always made coordinating with her very easy. We’re so grateful to have her and would happily recommend her to another family.
