I’m a nanny because It's simply something I am very good at. I started when I was 9 by helping my mother carrying for my new-born baby brother and even today we remain very close, though his way bigger than me now. I find it emotionally and spiritually rewarding to nurture and guide children in their adventure in discovering the world.


My past childcare experience My name is Thea and I have over 10 years professional experience in working with children between 6 mo-12 y. o I am patient and carrying, kind but firm, a good organizer and I can multi-task without skipping a bit. I have obtained most of my experience working for large families with children of various ages, needs and interests. I have kept in touch along the years and I have stellar references from all of them. I am a very active person and I'm big on spending time outdoors with children, playing soccer, shooting hoops, pitching baseballs or just at the playground. I enjoy chaperoning and organizing diverse fun activities, visits to museums, play-dates, birthday parties, and small group trips to Manhattan to children's plays or puppet shows. For indoor activities, I focus on developing an interest in reading and storytelling through different media from very early ages and I encourage children in taking up drawing and painting. I am myself a skilled illustrator and taking classes in drawing, acting, dance and voice. I should ad that I have obtained my teaching qualification in Romania where I have taught elementary and middle school for 5 years prior to my arrival in US. I am tri-lingual and I can offer French tutoring beginners to intermediate level as well as tutoring in Maths, Language Arts and Science for elementary and middle school, either separate or as part of the daily schedule. I have also considerable experience with babies and toddlers and I am familiar with the milestones of each early development stage, providing a safe and supportive environment for their explorations, encouraging their use of language and motor skills, introducing healthy foods and snacks. I find it particularly rewarding and inspiring to be part of this miraculous period in a child's life when changes are visible almost from month to month. One of my reasons for being a nanny is because I get to learn something new every day and I feel that keeps my young and happy. My first and foremost concern is the safety of the children and I am dedicated to their well-being and happiness. I am looking forward to meet you and become part of your extended family and put my set of skills and considerable experience at work for your benefit. Disclaimer. My profile picture is featured here with the accord of the parent and I chose it because I believe it shows a true glimpse of who I am.


Additional comments I come from a large family and I've worked for large families and I understand very well the needs of a modern Manhattan household. I am comfortable with providing some housekeeping and/or light cooking/running errands for the family in addition but separate from the childcare duties.
