My name is Miranda Chesson. I just moved to NYC almost 3 years ago from Texas. I work with a company that provide pre-college programs for middle school and high school students. I have had over 15 years of experience with various kids ranging from 6 months old to 17 years old. I am have 4 siblings (3 of them are younger) so I am familiar with busy households and multiple children! I am a very up-beat, fun-loving person. I love to be active and play around. I also really enjoy arts and crafts and I am more than willing to get involved in different activities.

TL;DR: She's great. I will definitely reach out to her again when I need care. Miranda got a little lost driving up to our house and still arrived early, as she was responsible enough to give herself a buffer. The kids (3,3 and 5) got along with her immediately, and she was very proactive about finding positive games. My wife and I also had an immediate positive first impression. She's alert, energetic, and easy to talk to. While we were out I texted her and she responded promptly. We came home to find the kids well taken care of and sleeping happily (in PJ's). Also: I found her on LinkedIn, and know and respect some of the folks she's connected to. She's an authentic, reliable woman, and I'm happy to be able to call her when I need help.

Miranda is a caring, fun, and dependable babysitter. She did an excellent job taking care of our baby boy for a couple of nights and we look forward to hiring her again!

Miranda was fantastic! The kids really had a blast with her. She took them to the park, and she played with them a lot. Miranda is a friendly, happy person. I will definitely use her again.
