Meet Laura

Hello! I am originally from Cleveland, Ohio and have lived in NYC for 17 years. After earning my MFA in Acting from NYU, I have been working professionally since 2008. In addition to acting, I have worked with children for over 10 years in NYC and find that true “play” is the perfect partner to the performing arts. Throughout my journey with children, I have amassed incredible skill and expertise with infants, toddlers, and children of all ages. I have worked with children all over New York City and have dozens of references, as I pride myself in being a true supersitter. I am responsible, caring, empathetic, smart, detail-oriented and highly competent. In some ways, I feel that there could be no better childcare provider than myself, as I have seen and done it all! I feel confident in any situation with children and can be a source of comfort Read more and reliability to a family :) I am currently seeking a new family to have p/t, flexible, or on-demand work with. I currently work 30 hours per week 100% remote from my home office, but I would like some supplemental income. I do not plan on babysitting for more than 1 family, once I find one for my new needs! I am FULLY vaccinated and am seeking a family that is very, very transparent about their vaccination status and their lifestyle choices so that I can become part of a safe work environment. I, myself, have not been on public transportation since March, ‘20 so I drive myself everywhere, and am happy to street park, pay for a lot, etc. to avoid subways. I only associate with vaccinated friends and family and I live a very safe lifestyle at home with my husband of 3 years. We have very, very little exposure to Covid and I hope to find a family that can keep me as safe as I plan to keep them. Until we have a better handle on the pandemic’s outlook, I plan to be this cautious. I look forward to meeting you! MULTIPLE REFERENCES AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST
