Meet Paige

  • Speaks English and Spanish
  • Comfortable with pets

I am a graduate student at Columbia University with a variety of experience. I have spent four summers as a full-time nanny. Three of those four summers I was a live-in nanny for three boys and the fourth summer I worked as a full-time nanny for two boys and one girl. Between my undergraduate and graduate experiences I taught science in a public high school for three years. I worked with all grades (ninth thru twelfth) as a Teach for America teacher. Other work experiences I have is working as an intern at an advocacy center for crime victims and children and a supervisor at a summer day-camp for children in Puerto Rico. Currently I am a full-time graduate student and an intern at a rehabilitation center for battered women and children.
