I am a 30-yr-old female professional performing artist (dance/act/sing) and writer based in NYC. I hold a BFA in Commercial Dance as well as a BA in English/Writing from Pace University. I am originally from Meredith, New Hampshire, but have resided in NYC the past several years for my career. When COVID hit, I lost all of my performing gigs and became a full-time nanny. I also decided to go back to school, and recently completed my master's degree in Health Education and Promotion via Plymouth State University. Previous childcare experience includes working as a camp counselor, dance instructor, children's theatre performer, k-12 substitute teacher, full-time 7 days/week nanny, and babysitting for many families of boys/girls/multiples, from ages 3 weeks to 17 years. I am very comfortable with pets. I do not smoke, drink, or do any drugs. I am wilderness first aid certified, CPR-certified, and a vet-verified professional dog Read more walker. I am a certified meditation, relaxation, and yoga teacher. I am a certified para-professional with experience working with students of all ages and abilities/disabilities in the local public school district. My strengths are as a writing and reading teacher/tutor. References: I have been working with children professionally since 2010, babysitting since 2016, and nannying full-time since 2020. I can provide recent references upon request. Thanks for checking out my profile. I hope you'll consider me! :)

Irene took care of our 3 year old daughter in the afternoons for a week when we had a gap in care, picking her up from school, preparing her snacks, and taking her to the playground and short outings. Our daughter adored her. Irene was always on time and was a great communicator.
