Meet Marcella

  • Speaks English, French, Portuguese, and Spanish
  • Comfortable with pets

My name is Marcella and I'm a singer graduated at Berklee. I'm also the 1st generation born in the US from a Brazilian family. I've been working with kids for over 10 years now. While living in Brazil I spent 3 years volunteering for non profits, where I got to work with children ages 3-17 years old inside public schools. My experience got my college calling me to offer a work-study position at the Boys and Girls Club where I tutored and taught music to kids ages 10 and up for the whole duration of my studies (Sep 09' - Dec 12'). In New York I had to pleasure to work for hotels with child care ages 3months-14years old for over 3 years. I also worked as nursery staff for a Postpartum depression center for 6 months. as well as with private families for private care and tutoring. I love Read more working with kids, introducing them to music whenever possible, and just interacting with them as much as I can so I'm not just a "look over" babysitter!

Marcella was amazing! She took her own toys and differentiate for our girl and boy. Bathed them and gave them food. When I came back home, the kids were happily playing with her.

Reached out in advance, arrived a couple minutes early, offered to stay late if needed, did a great job handling bedtime and left the home neater than when she arrived. Sincere and mature. Like her a lot.
