I am a fifth grade teacher with more than 15 years of experience as a nanny and babysitter. I've been teaching for eight years, and worked as a nanny all through college, ranging from newborns to middle schoolers. To supplement my teaching income, I enjoy routinely babysitting during the school year. I have a Bachelor's degree from McGill University, a Master's degree in Education, and NY Teaching Certification. I am Red Cross certified in Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED and renew my certification every year. Most of my babysitting experience entails caring for several children at a time and I am well-versed in all developmental stages. My overall approach when babysitting (and teaching) is to foster children's uninhibited joy and curiosity while maintaining a safe environment with a carefully contrived authoritative style. As a teacher, I know the importance of honoring emotional needs as well as holding consistent boundaries. Please reach out if you have any questions!

She was right on time and wonderful with our two girls. She gave great reports and was communicative throughout the whole night letting us know that they were well cared for. She got a great report from our kids the next day, to the point where they are asking us when we will go out again so Nica can come back. Definitely will rehire again!
