Hey! I'm Brianna. I have a Bachelor's in Molecular Biology, and a Master's in Public Health. I've been babysitting throughout college, and I'm also the oldest of four. I have two siblings that are on the spectrum, one of which also has ODD; between this, and my experience in tutoring centers, I've had significant experience with children who have special needs. I spent my summers working as a camp counselor at Camp Pecometh, where I was responsible for 5-10 children at a time, ages 5-16. On the weekends, I volunteered at my church's nursery, taking care of newborns to 3-year olds. My specialties are craft time, early Spanish education, and kid-friendly snack prep. I have background checks available, as well as additional references. I am fully vaccinated. Please note - I'm currently nannying with the following schedule: Monday & Tuesday, 9am-5pm Wednesday, 9am-3pm Thursday & Friday, 9am-2pm

Please note: at this time I am only able to commit to short-term or spot sitting jobs, mostly on weekends and in the evenings. I am unavailable for long-term or regularly scheduled sitting. I moved to Philadelphia from NYC in 2021 and never looked back. I live in Point Breeze. I enjoy using the bike share and public transportation to get around. I also do a lot of walking! My background is in musical theatre. Today, I work remotely in accessibility services for the deaf and hard-of-hearing. While in college, I worked at a daycare center. I also spent six months as an au pair in Dublin, Ireland. Since moving to NYC in 2010 I have been babysitting steadily for children from 6 months old to 11 years old. I love playing with kids, reading them stories, singing songs, doing arts and crafts, and helping them learn. They never cease to amaze me. Having fun is important, but I am also a firm believer in safety and cleanliness. Communication and flexibility are imperative when taking care of children. In my spare time, I enjoy traveling and running. To date, I have run five full marathons, including being part of the American Cancer Society's team for the NYC Marathon. Past shows I was in include Freckleface Strawberry as the Ballet Girl and a national tour of Lilly's Purple Plastic Purse; both are children's shows based on books. You may also have seen me as Zuzu the Elf at Macy's Santaland or in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade as a Despicable Me minion. I am a huge fan of both Frozen films and can sing almost any Disney song upon request. Happy to provide references. Looking forward to meeting you!

My previous experience includes sitting at homes, overnight, and other determined locations. I love being with kids and I appreciate the opportunity to take part in sharing the joy and warmth children spread.

I worked in my mother's daycare for five years.
