Hello! My name is Marcella. I have been a graduate student in New York for the past two years, and am now back in Atlanta for a little while. I am eager to offer you one-time or short-term childcare while I am here! I have extensive experience working with children in a variety of settings, including babysitting and nannying toddlers and young children, as well as caring for an infant on a couple of occasions. I have also worked with preschoolers, teaching yoga, meditation, reading and writing, and I have worked with kindergarteners up through high school at an outdoor camp in Colorado. Additionally, I have worked with fourth-graders in an academic setting, and have led a youth group for middle- and high-school students, which included a weeklong service trip. I love and respect kids, and have had so much fun working and playing with them in the past! I would love to work with, care for and play with your little ones while you are off doing other things, and am very creative and can come up with many different activities in or out of the home to do together with them! Please reach out to me and we can talk more about what you are looking for.

Hello! Nice to meet you :) I’m Sabrina and I’m a childcare provider and professional contemporary dancer based in Chicago, IL! I’ve been working with children since 2018 and after graduating from New York University with a BFA in Dance and a minor in Business and Media in 2024, I’ve worked as a nanny, dance educator and after school care provider around the Chicagoland area. I have experience with children ages 3 months to 12 years, but specialize in early childhood education with children 12 months through 9 years old. In Chicago, I’ve worked for BASH Kids Club, an after care provider specializing in the arts, in addition to nannying and babysitting various children around the city. I've been a full time chaperone for The Joffrey Ballet's summer dance programs during the 2022 and 2023 summer sessions where over a three month period, I lived in a dormitory setting with students ranging from 9-22, helping them navigate the program and facilitate various activities and crafts. In New York, I acted as a nanny and personal assistant for a family in Brooklyn regularly on weekday mornings. I would get her children ready for the day, take them to school and then assist with daily household tasks such as laundry and dishes, errands, organization tasks and various small projects that needed to be completed. I also worked for a variety of families on an as-needed basis in the New York City area. In my childcare work, I lead with kindness and compassion whilst enforcing safety and structure in the child’s life. I strongly believe that creative play can be best explored and experienced with simple age-appropriate structure in place. I also enjoy scheduling and organizing for families in addition to taking on various household tasks such as cleaning, laundry and errands if needed to ease day-to-day household operation for parents. I have experience with various niches of childcare including sick care, homework help, and assisting children with special needs including autism, speech delays, sensory issues and ADD/ADHD. I’m also CPR, AED and First-Aid certified. I pride myself on my adaptive nature, my tenacity for challenge, and my love of all things fun! I hope that through this role, I can support your family, engage creatively with your children and help bring a sense of calmness and organization to your home. It would be an absolute pleasure to be considered for this role and I look forward to hearing from you soon. Best, Sabrina
