About Rachel

Over 15 years of caregiving experience, I love helping children grow, learn, express their creativity, encourage curiosity, and make any activity fun. Reliable, organized, responsible, and trustworthy, I've cared for and worked with children of all ages from babies to school age kids (and am still in touch with the teenagers who've outgrown me!). I am passionate about cultivating and holding space for every child to feel seen, valued, and loved. Whether you need help entertaining little ones, getting homework accomplished, or putting a healthy meal on the table, I'm the babysitter who can turn anything into a fun adventure (with a little song and dance thrown in the mix). I hold a B. A. in Political Science from the University of Michigan and an M. A. in Educational Theater from NYU. I spent nearly a decade working in NYC public schools and for non-profit arts organizations as a theater teacher and am now an actor seeking part time work to support pursuing my career.
