Meet Wendy

  • Speaks English
  • Comfortable with pets

Hi there! I'm Wendy; I have a long background in childcare in multiple fields, including education/gifted education, nannying, babysitting, even tennis and sports coaching! I study Theatre Directing at Pace University currently, and through that degree and career path have a great understanding of communication, conflict resolution, organization, and the most fun part, creativity and play! My school schedule this semester also happens to be fairly light, so I have my days open after 12pm on M-Th, after 4pm on Fridays, and my days fully open on the weekends. I find this line of work so gratifying not only because of the imagination that children carry with them, but because it feels truly special to know that you can have a positive impact on a child's development and provide assistance to a loving family. Thank you so much for taking some time to read through my profile, but if you Read more have any remaining questions, please reach out and I am happy to have a conversation any time.
