Meet Marika

If you're looking for a caring, nurturing, structured, and reliable weekday/weekend babysitter, look no further. My name is Marika, I am 25 years old, I live, and grew up in Brooklyn, New York. I graduated Berkley College with a BA in Marketing Communication, and a minor in Early Childhood Education. I have over 7 years of experience; I worked with children from ages 6 months to 12 years old. A typical day with me (depending on the age of the child) consists of going to the park, and engaging in physical activities, eating healthy snacks, and assisting with homework. I am CPR and First aid certified, and I am very excited, and looking forward to meeting your family.

We had a great experience working with Marika when we were visiting NYC with our 1.5 year old son. She was punctual, responsible, communicative, and already had a great understanding of what to do in terms of eating, bathing and bedtime. Would definitely recommend to other families! Thanks, Marika!!

Marika was great, she was able to schedule a time to watch our son with just a few hours notice. She was very friendly, on time and worked very well with him, we would definitely hire her again.
