Hi! My name is Stevie, and I’m a junior at NYU studying Musical Theatre. I’ve been babysitting since I was 16 and spent three years consistently caring for two elementary-aged girls, which gave me lots of experience building strong, trusting relationships with both kids and families.I also have extensive experience working with children of different ages and abilities. I’ve worked as a Special Needs Aide at a theatre camp, assistant taught at the Institute for Collaborative Education, and have hands-on experience caring for my 9-year-old sister with special needs.I’m energetic, creative, patient, and love finding ways to make time together fun! In my free time, I love reading, exploring NYC, playing board games, and making music—I sing and play guitar, ukulele, and piano. Whether it’s helping with homework, getting creative, playing games, or winding down with a good book, I love creating an environment where kids feel comfortable, supported, and excited to spend time together!
