A little bit about me

I just graduated from the University of Michigan (Go Blue!) and I'm moving to NYC to start a new chapter. I bring 8+ years of nannying and babysitting experience with kids of all ages — including caring for a family of five, all under 7.

I love getting creative with kids: outdoor adventures, learning activities, arts and crafts, and the occasional movie night. I'm also happy to help with errands and light housework wherever it's useful. Also, I'm super dog-friendly; I have a big standard poodle back home :)

Outside of work, I'm into photography, music, fashion, beauty, and F1 — and I genuinely love sparking that same curiosity and creativity in the kids I care for!

Hi there!
My name is Maysun Rose Cronk and I am a recent graduate of Nazareth University with a BFA in Musical Theatre.

I have worked as a party princess for 4+ years and I love making little ones feel special on their birthdays! We sing, dance, and play games and its been my dream job these past 4 years. I also worked as a theatre teacher at Dream Big day Camp last year and worked with kids ages 3-14, sharing my passion and sparking interest in the arts for them! Now that Im graduated, I am moving to NYC to be a performer but I want a part time job that allows me to still work with kids!
