Responsible, warm, and highly experienced babysitter with continuous childcare experience since age 14. CPR certified for newborns through adults, with hands-on experience caring for children from 3 months to 14 years old, across families with one to five children of all ages and genders. Known for a playful, empathetic, and attentive approach, strong safety awareness, and genuine love of working with children. Highly motivated, dependable, and trusted by families across the U.S. and internationally.

My Favourite Memory

My favourite memory at the moment would probably be from this past summer when my family and I peaked our first 14 thousand foot mountain as a family in Colorado.

My Experience

2018 Present New York, Melbourne, Boston, Rhode Island, and Ireland Provided consistent, trusted childcare for multiple families over several years, demonstrating reliability and long-term commitment. Cared for children ranging in age from 3 months to 14 years, adapting care to developmental needs and individual personalities. Managed care for families with 1–5 children at a time, maintaining a calm, organized, and safe environment. Ensured children’s safety and well-being at all times, including feeding, diapering, bathing, bedtime routines, and supervision. Planned and led creative, engaging, and age-appropriate activities including art projects, games, reading, and outdoor play. Assisted with homework and learning activities, supporting both academic and emotional development. Prepared meals and snacks, followed family routines, and respected household rules and values. Built strong, trusting relationships with both children and parents through open communication and empathy.

My Education

I am currently an undergraduate student at Trinity College Dublin. I am studying a degree in European and Middle Eastern Languages and Histories.

My Family

I grew up in Brooklyn, New York with my two younger siblings and my parents. We moved around quite a lot living in West Cork, Berlin, and Melbourne. I am very close with my family and miss them dearly while studying here in Ireland.

My Motivation

I am interested in working with families because babysitting has been a consistent part of my life since I was fourteen. I have worked with all ages from 3 months to 14 and I love working and being with children.

My Interests

In my spare time I enjoy reading, writing, yoga and running. I also take ceramics classes and work on the wheel as much as possible!
