Artist with 10+ years of experience as a nanny and babysitter in New York City before moving to the South. I worked full time with a family for four years with kids ages 4 months, 6 years and 9 years until the youngest entered school. I love making art with kids (painting, drawing, sewing, baking!) and anything outside (going to the park, scootering, critter observing!)I strive for clear communication and being a calm, helpful presence in the house. Experience with infants, EpiPen, and kids on the spectrum.

Hi! My name is Natalia. I am a recent graduate of NYU, with a BFA in dance and a minor in sociology. I have had paid babysitting experience for the past three years, and have worked in childcare programs for the past 5 years. Both independently and through babysitting services, I have cared for children from 5 months to 12 years old, and everything in between. In addition to babysitting, I am a teacher with Four Corners Creative, where I have taught Broadway Bound, Zumba, and Baby's Got Bach/Music Class. I have experience in tutoring, especially reading skills, and child wrangling at multiple summer camps. I love to meet new kids and discover what their unique passions are! I am also more than happy to help out with any cleaning or cooking!
