About Malka

Experience: 9 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

Hi parents! I am an enthusiastic & attentive caretaker with 9 years of experience working with children ages 0-12, and people with special needs ages 5-22. I have experience in roles such as live-in nanny, substitute teacher, babysitter, daycare assistant, special needs aid, camp counselor, housekeeper and more. I have CPR and New York State emergency medical training. I am passionate about providing warm, trustworthy services for parents, and working together to help children reach their age appropriate milestones, do active activities daily, connect with nature, develop skills and create a joyful, fun, environment where children feel safe, loved and celebrated. I can also provide assistance with cooking, light errands, and homework. Message me for my resume and references. About me: In my free time, I love spending time in nature, learning about plants, trees, and fungi and hosting events. I enjoy art, Mary Oliver poems, reading, embroidering, building, and people.

Malka took care of our baby boy during the day while we worked from home for 3 months, from the time he was 7 months old until 10 months old. She was very personable and nice to be around in our home. At first our boy was clingy and upset to be left with someone new, but by the end of her time with us he was very excited to see her when she arrived. She read him a lot of books, took him for walks and talked to him a lot, showing him things around the house and neighborhood. She even wrote a nice letter of tips and tricks for the new nanny, which showed how thoughtful she was. She was happy to take instructions and do things the way we ask. She kept us updated on the app that we use and by sending photos during the day. We appreciated having her help and were sad to see her go.
