I left a full-time legal career in law in order to pursue a much more pleasurable and fulfilling way to spend my days. I am a 30 year old female with a degree in communications. I had worked in the legal field for almost a decade and at some point, I hit a wall. Now, I have the opportunity to do something I love. This has always been a perfect fit. I have two step-daughters for whom I have raised with my husband since they were very young 3 and 5 years old. I have consistently volunteered my time and energy into the PTSO at their school, working with children, chaperoning, event planning, fundraising. It once became very clear I prefer to spend time at the school rather than my own job (not because my kids were there but because I genuinely enjoyed hanging around the kids more). I have Read more been told I am the ultimate camp-counselor-personality. In some ways, I am a full-grown child myself (I am naturally bubbly, goofy and kids are great company to me), but alas, I am truly an adult who manages her own household and life just the same, and as I find, with ease. Running a home is difficult. This much is true. I want to make it easier for you because I know I can. I am highly dependable and I have a high integrity for all the work I do. I have a unwavering moral compass. I am highly verbal and communicative, so I find that when I am with children they tend to learn a great deal of verbal skills themselves. I am a singer and very musical. I grew up in NYC and attended a rigorous musical theatre program. I love engaging children in this passion and can easily incorporate improv and music into their every days lives. I do not not "watch" the kids for you. I get to them know them. I figure them out to make sure I am both accommodating to your family but also making sure the child can thrive. I love knowing them and forming a relationship with them. I can care for infants through teen years if you'd like. While I am not a certified education by any means, I believe I have the capacity to assist with home schooling if this is something you are seeking as well. I have considered doing it for my own children (and would love to) but in my situation, this is not 100% my decision.
