A little bit about me

My name is Ximena Gallego. I have been working for the past three years as a kindergarten and fourth grade teacher. During college, I would babysit on the side up until I graduated from graduate school. My thesis explored the impact the media had on young girls' self-esteem, thus resulting in less women working in STEM fields. When I had time off from school, I worked full-time with a family in TriBeCa. I babysat for this family for the past 10 years. They have two boys, ages 9 and 6, and a daughter, 3. I was responsible for preparing meals to the children. I would assist the children with Spanish lessons. I would control playtime and maintain a table of activities in order to create a happy and fun environment. A positive reinforcement system was in place as a positive behavior management tool. During the summers, we would take walks and educational trips. On occasion, I would travel on holiday with the family. I would work for other families from the Potter building on an on-call basis, usually the weekends. I resigned from the DOE due to safety concerns. I worked in the South Bronx, the poorest congressional district in the US. On several occasions, there would be lock-down drills due to the violence occurring outside the building. I decided to take some time off. I am fluent in Spanish, with some conversational Greek. With my background in media studies and anthropology, I like to explore and learn about new cultures, and engage in adventures throughout NYC. I like planning the days to expose the children to a variety of activities. NYC is the perfect place to do so with so many museums, parks, and an accessible transportation system. I'm open to taking children to classes in order to enhance their social skills, but I can also provide hands-on activities that engage their fine motor and sensory skills right from the home. I also have experience working with students with special needs, including gifted students. I'm looking for a family that I can grow with.
