My name is Allegra. I' have recently moved back to Atlanta after having to withdraw from my Masters Degree Program in Costume Design and am subsequently looking for work as a babysitter/nanny. Throughout the past 10 years, in between going to school, I have loved working with children. My most recent job was at the world-famous FAO Schwarz in New York City, painting faces full time from September 2013 to June 2015 . A fully certified face painter, I was trained at a face painting school in England (who knew?!) and over the past 6 years I have worked at various festivals and events-- including the Atlanta Dogwood Festival and Yellow Daisy Festival at Stone Mountain. Not only have I experience with face painting but starting out way back in high school I became the favorite sitter for a group of moms with 2 year olds (the golden age when Read more they learn to say 'no!', nonetheless I enjoy their spunk, even if they are overly assertive). I've also looked after babies and older children on a regular basis. Not only do I have lots of experience working with kids at FAO and various face painting jobs over the years, but way back in high school I became the favorite sitter for a group of moms with 2 year olds (the golden age when they learn to say 'no!', nonetheless I enjoy their spunk even if they are overly assertive). I've also looked after babies and older children. Recently I have regularly babysat a baby since they were 7 months, and looked after a group of kids ages 5-10. I'm really great with kids and I enjoy them. My background in arts allows me to be very fun and creative in play-- I am a voracious reader and have a good academic background, so I am easily able to help with homework. I am also a dependable, honest, and hardworking person. Please message me to learn more about me, or if you have any questions about my work experience. I look forward to hearing from you!
