Hello! My name is Lauren Gentry, and I absolutely love working with kids. I am currently a Theatre Activity Specialist at the Sports and Arts in Schools Foundation. Previously, I was the Assistant 4s Teacher, Lead Drama Teacher, and Lead Hip-hop Teacher at Citibabes Preschool in Manhattan. I worked with kids ages 18 months-12 years at a daycare for a year. I also teach theatre and storytelling to refugee children at the International Rescue Committee, the Boaz Organization for Youth, and the International Center with Catholic Charities. I have been babysitting and working with children for 10 years, and I tutor students at the International Rescue Committee. I am CPR and First Aid Certified, and I have experience working with English Language Learners and special needs kids. I graduated Summa Cum Laude from Butler University with a B.A. in Theatre. I love being able to help nurture children, foster their Read more positive growth and development, broaden their imaginations, and guide them along a path towards a bright future. I am self-motivated, loving, responsible, intelligent, and full of energy. I would love the opportunity to care for your children! Thank you, and have a wonderful day!
