Hi, I’m Fanta! I’m an NYU nursing student with a strong passion for childcare. I want to be a Pediatric NP or NICU Nurse so I decided to babysit in my free time. I’ve been babysitting for over 9 years now, working with kids of all ages. Right now, I’m taking care of a 6-month-old girl and a 6-year-old boy. I’m the oldest and only girl of 4 so I took care of my brothers at all life stages. I also worked as a Center Assistant at Kumon this summer! I like to keep things organized -and make sure the kids I watch are safe and feel supported. I’m also super adaptable, open-minded, and really try to connect with each child in a way that works best for them. I’ve been cooking for about 7 years and would love to learn any new kid-friendly recipes you recommend! Since I’ve lived Read more in NYC my whole life, I know my way around the city and am always super vigilant when I’m out and about with kids. On top of that, I’m fluent in English, conversational in French, and fluent in Bambara (Mali’s native language). I can help with homework too—especially math up to 9th/10th grade and English assignments. I’m pretty flexible, and I always stay on top of communication to keep things running smoothly. Thanks so much for considering me! I’d love the chance to chat more about how I can help with your childcare needs. Fun fact: I can speak 4 languages fluently and 2 at a conversational level—#polyglot lol!
