About Porter

I just recently moved to NYC from Chicago with my dog and two cats. Now that I'm here I'm eager to put down roots and get more involved with the community. An important part of feeling settled and getting involved for me is connecting with families by providing exceptional care and support. I have a genuine love for fostering connections and helping others thrive. I have a diverse background with experience from babysitting full time to public health. In these roles I managed teams, coordinated events and handled complex situations calmly and efficiently, which translates well into maintaining a structured and positive environment for children. I pride myself on being able to handle high-pressured tasks with compassion, attention to detail and a focus on the well-being of others. I have experience caring for children of various ages. When I'm with kids I just love to have fun! I'm engaged and attentive while always maintaining the appropriate amount of goofiness.
