A little bit about me

Hey there! I'm a 21 year old New Yorker who is studying interior design online part-time! I have extensive experience with children ages 5 months to 13 years old and love to find creative activities to encourage learning and growth. I make sure to keep things positive and flowing, but also help kids build important life skills and reach milestones. My favorite thing about working with children is seeing them blossom in a safe and enriching environment. I've worked with children who have many special needs and also with children who have varying interests of all kinds! I love teaching new and easy recipes to kids, reading with them, and building forts! I love spending time with pets, staying active with walks and yoga and exploring outside. Can't wait to meet you and your family!

A little bit about me

Dear Family, I have been in childcare as a nanny for 12 years and used my biology major to teach science lessons at an after-school program for 1st to 5th graders for 2 years. I have experience with a wide range of ages, but primarily with newborns, infants, toddlers, and younger school children. I have provided full-time care to multiple sets of twin infants for multiple years. I can feed milk/formula to infants to ensure they grow, but also know how to cook a range of toddler/children's food as they age. During this time, I have taken care of children with various needs ranging from food allergies and sensitivities to special needs including those on the spectrum with Autism or Aspergers. In addition, I do have CPR/emergency training and am well-versed in how to use both natural and prescribed medicines for infants to children depending on the family's decisions.
Please e-mail [email hidden]; I can give further information about myself and my references.
Tori,

Recent reference

"Tori was great for my son. When he was a baby, she helped us nap train, start solids, and get him into a good schedule. That evolved as he grew and she was a supportive caregiver as his needs and naps changed, he wanted to play with kids, and be more interactive with the world. She did his laundry and made him meals which was a big help. I am glad she worked for us and cared for my son, she is honest and trustworthy with my precious little guy and our home."
