Hi families! Thank you so much for checking out my profile. I've been a caregiver for over 14 years now, most recently as a part-time nanny for a family in Brooklyn with a toddler and an infant. Children bring me so much joy and it is so exciting to watch a child's growth and development over the years! Some of my favorite caregiver activities include trips to the park or the swimming pool, interactive play with toys, arts and crafts, and reading stories. My favorite books to read aloud are Goodnight Moon, Little Blue Truck, Pete the Cat, and Knuffle Bunny, but I'm always on the hunt for new, fun stories to read! I love to get children away from the screens and outside being active! Additionally, I enjoy helping with homework and making learning fun and interactive. I have experience working in an elementary school classroom, where I helped Read more children struggling with reading at a first grade level. I graduated from Goucher College in 2016 with a degree in political science. I am a dependable, responsive, and responsible person, and I hope I can be a good fit for your family! I have excellent references as needed. I look forward to meeting you soon!

Tori was great! She was very communicative, arrived early (!) and sent updates during her time babysitting for us. A warm professional that we would definitely not hesitate to call again. Thank you Tori!

I hired Tori at the very last minute due to another sitter that had fallen through. She was readily available, came to my apartment that afternoon to meet my kitties and and did an excellent job while I was away. She texted me while I was gone to let me know how things were going, which was great. She's an invaluable resource who I highly recommend for your pet care needs.

Tori took care of our cats just a few short weeks after moving them to a new home. When we returned they were peaceful and content, as if we had never left. She’s great with them! She’s very reliable and just a really nice person. I recommend Tori to anyone looking for a pet sitter in the city. I’m certainly calling her next time I need to leave town.

Tori babysat my very fussy 4 month old daughter while my partner and I attended a wedding. She was very patient with my daughter, she got her to sleep easily, and she even showed up earlier than we had discussed when I found out we had to leave 30 minutes earlier. We are from out of town but if we lived in Baltimore we would hire Tori regularly!
