Hello! My name is Marina. I have been blessed with the opportunity to work with children for 20 years now! Begining in 1998 with a nanny gig for 3 children straight out of college. I have a degree in child development/psychology and an advanced degree in learning psychology. I am an expert in childhood learning and behavior by trade; however, I am new to the area and looking for part-time work while I get settled. I have multiple references from families I not only worked for but have grown to love and admire greatly. I have experience with infants and children up to 10 years, as well as special needs children of all ages and abilities. I would describe myself as kind, energetic, and dependable. Previous employers have described me as "confident! Marina is able to handle any situation. No matter what comes up I know my children are well Read more taken care of." I have my own reliable transportation and am located near GMU. Thank you for your consideration! I look forward to speaking with you further...

Marina was a before school sitter for my two elementary school kids in the Fall of 2018. She was really great with them, creating a good relationship with them and finding the best in 2 sometimes challenging kids while making sure she efficiently got them ready and out the door on time. She was also consistently prompt and reliable.
