Meet Laura

  • Speaks English, French, and Irish
  • Comfortable with pets

Hi I'm Laura. I'm a 22 year old Architecture Graduate living and working in New York City. For the past 8 years I have spent my evenings, weekends and summers taking care of some amazing children. During this time I have developed strong relationships with families, who have trusted and confided in me. Staying for overnights and weekends, I have been the primary caregiver for kids, regularly preparing meals and doing school runs. I am academically inclined and enjoy helping with homework and providing tutoring sessions. I inherited a love of crafts from my mother which I love sharing with the children I work with. Dancing has always been my passion and for the past 4 years I have had the opportunity to teach classes to children of all ages. Through this I have gained an insight into how to get the best results from children and have developed a Read more strict but fair manner that has served me well. Its not until you have 30 four year olds standing in front of you that you realise entertaining one was a breeze!
