Meet Ava

  • Comfortable with pets
  • Has a car

Hi! My name is Ava and I have been babysitting for about seven years. I am currently a nanny in Manhattan while I am also a student. I also taught dance classes for two years for ages 3-10 yrs., along with working in an assisted living facility for three years. I am also CPR and First Aid certified through American Red Cross. In addition to many years of working with children and seniors, I have my Associates Degree in Liberal Arts and am currently a senior in college studying psychology (and pre-nursing). I pride myself in being very energetic, creative, and friendly. I also enjoy cleaning and organizing. I love animals and I’m comfortable around all pets!
