*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 Read more 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! Thanks for reading, and here’s hoping everyone finds their very own Mary Poppins! Monique F.

Monique was responsive to our call for availability on very short notice and it was easy onboarding her; she was very accommodating to the way we were running things in our house. She was always early and communicative throughout the day. Even as our 6-month old went through periods of fussiness throughout the day, Monique never lost her cool and continued to sing (she has an amazing voice) and soothe our baby. We are very lucky to have found Monique and look forward to working with her again.

Monique was the full-time caregiver for our 3 year old until she started Pre-K. In addition to normal caregiving tasks, Monique gave our child reading lessons and taught her to be a very polite individual. Years later, the foundational skills Monique instilled in her have proven to be valuable. We are very thankful!
