I am an experienced teaching artist, director, choreographer, and performer. I have spent the past six years working with children in performing arts education, including virtual theatre classes and camps. I am passionate about theatre arts, working with kids, and fostering a creative and safe learning environment for all students. I have a BFA in Musical Theatre and love to spend my free time singing and acting. I adore children and spent over a year working as a full time nanny for two boys ages 2 and 4. I also have plenty of experience as a babysitter and Aunt to my three beautiful nieces. I am the youngest daughter of four girls and spent my childhood traveling the country as an army brat! I have never been the kind of babysitter to sit back and watch. I'd much rather be involved playing games, singing songs, doing crafts and making memories

Mara regularly nannys for our 2 boys (3 1/2 and 1 1/2). She is great with the kids, has wonderful activities for them, takes them on outings, prepares meals, helps with potty training, and gives baths. They look forward to her coming over and I have complete trust that they are in good hands while I am gone. She has helped out our friends who were in a bind and have sat for their three girls (4 year old and 2 eight year olds) and my two boys at the same time. She can definitely manage mutliple children.
