Hi! I grew up in the Upper West Side of Manhattan, attended the Dalton School, Columbia and NYU. I have worked with children in London, Paris, Barcalona, and New York City, for over 20 years. With my experience, I have the unique skill set to work with a diverse population of all ages, ethnic backgrounds, and abilities. My clientele include families with children attending, or applying to, Dalton, Ethical Culture, Epiphany, Trevor, and the Quad. I have personally stayed in touch with some of my roll models from Dalton for many year's, and hope to impact children to the same extent that my former teachers have had on myself. I love seeing 'my' kids grow, expand their horizons, and learn to relish NYC as their own backyard. I enjoy taking children on field trips to museums and cultural events as much as to the playground. Feel free to reach out regarding references.

Melissa is my wonderful neighbor who regularly checks in with my 19 month old daughter. She has given us lovely educational books, toys and crafts that we have had so much fun with. I see Melissa with her 5 year old niece all the time and they have a great time rehearsing for music and dance recitals together. Melissa loves children and is very knowledgeable about age-appropriate creative and engaging activities. We are so lucky to know her.
