My name is Natasha Finkelstein and I’m a 19 year old from New York City. I’m currently a rising sophomore at Colorado College where I’m majoring in English. I am a lover of all things creative — writing, painting, drawing, music, movies, you name it. Through my years of experience with younger kids, I know how to balance my young, light-hearted energy with the responsibility and thoughtfulness that a caretaker needs to have. I have experience working with kids of all ages, from kindergarten to middle school but I’m happy to work with kids even younger. I like to build relationships with the kids I babysit for through fun activities like board games, arts and crafts, and baking. As a city kid I’m familiar with all the amazing places that young kids love to go. My favorites have always been the ice skating rink at Chelsea Piers, Color Me Mine, and the Museum of Natural History. I also am a huge animal-lover! I have a dog myself and I would be happy to take care of any pets.
