Meet Marin

  • Speaks English and German
  • Comfortable with pets

I recently graduated from Rider University with my BFA in Musical Theatre. I'm fully vaccinated and follow all mask and travel protocols. My experience with child care includes my neighbor children, family members, and Girl Scout camps, as well as working for families with kids of all ages (infant-teen). I always play right along with the kids I'm watching, so they tend to view me as an older friend. This creates a relationship where any request I make (clean up, don't hit, walk inside, etc) is quickly followed with no complaints. I also have experience working with kids on the spectrum and with ADHD.
