**ACTIVELY SEEKING GIGS SUMMER 2025** Hello! I'm Harrison. I’m actively looking for both recurring and intermittent gigs in July, August, and beyond. If you think I may be a good fit for your family, would love to connect! A little about me— I moved to Brooklyn ~3 years ago to manage a giant rock climbing gym. I've worked with kids a ton in climbing gyms over the last 10 years, from running summer camps to making birthday parties awesome. After leaving my role earlier this year, I started providing care in an attempt to reclaim joy in my work life-- and it's been a blast so far. I like climbing, games (video, board, word, active, other), cooking, soccer, swimming, and riding my bike long distances. I went to school for film, and I used to be a producer on a PBS show! I'm CPR / first aid certified and generally skilled at balancing fun and safety in childcare settings. I'm a skilled driver, though I do not currently own a car. Beyond just sitting, I'm happy to support with: -homework help! I used to student teach / tutor English back in high school, and I am generally math-proficient. -meal prep! I chef 95% of my apartmenthold's meals right now, and I love to cook. -climbing! Wanna learn the ropes or just give it a try? I'm your guy. -pet care! I live with 3 cats (1 mine, 2 my girlfriend’s) and I care for dogs of friends & clients regularly. Hope to hear from you!

I have 24 years of professional childcare and early childhood education experience. I am truly passionate about protecting, guiding, and nurturing children. As the oldest of 6 siblings, I assisted my mother in caring for my younger siblings. I often cared for up to 5 younger cousins at a time in addition to my younger siblings. My first professional babysitting position was when I was 14 years old. My first nanny position was from ages 17-19, it was a live in position. I implement a love of music, arts and crafts, and outdoor play in my caregiving approach. I am honest, responsible, warm, and patient. I regularly recertify in both CPR and first aid. I am pursuing my goal of entering law school, I intend to become a family law attorney.

I took a circuitous route to childcare, originally pursuing an interest in end of life care. However while taking core classes at the Graduate School of Social Work, I discovered an affinity and aptitude for Children, Youth, and Family case work. I adore every stage of child development and every child's unique journey of growth and discovery

*Seeking after-school job, or two to three long days in Park Slope in September with FUN family! Hello everyone, I’m looking for an after school job, or two to three long days in Park Slope with an organized, fun, thoughtful family for the school year. I would need 20 hours minimum, and would be available for date nights as well. Park Slope is next to where I live, as I live in Sunset Park next to Green-Wood. This is key if you have last minute needs outside of normal working hours. I’m always punctual, have an unparalleled joy for life, 24 years of experience, and excellent references! In fact they’d all love to speak with you on my behalf, including my two recent families I’ve worked for in Park Slope a sweet baby in the morning, and 2 primary school children afterschool for the last 3 years. I still see them on occasion for weekend or date nights. I have many years experience with babies, toddlers, and grade school children as well. I’ve also cared for several sets of twins! I love listening, teaching, and explaining things. I'm also a (fun & effective) reading and spelling teacher/tutor for children 3-6, I'm well traveled, (mostly all Europe) speak Italian, went to Fiorello LaGuardia as an art major, am a singer, mostly 1930’s-1940’s jazz, But most of all, I’m genuinely happy, and see the good in everyone. I create life long loving bonds with the children I care for and their parents, and children feel safe and secure talking to me about things that may be bothering them. I’ve had many parents over the years ask if perhaps I might speak to their child to find out what’s going on, it’s my forte! I also handle any behavior with understanding and redirecting in a positive way, because they are after all, still learning. I adore dogs as well, and am happy to take them for walks as well! On an end note, my hourly may be more than you were hoping for, but I’m absolutely worth it, ask anyone! Thanks for reading, and here’s hoping everyone finds their very own Mary Poppins! Monique F.
