About Lena
Experience: 8 yrs
Hello my name is Lena! I have been providing childcare to families on Long Island since 2017. I have experience with children from 4 months old- 12 years old, and am comfortable working with all ages! I graduated from SUNY Cortland in 2023 with a degree in Health Education, and will be attending Stony Brook for a masters in Nutrition, starting this summer (my coursework is asynchronous so my schedule is flexible to your needs). I have lived in Austria and Italy as an au pair to two different families. I am very seasoned with working in people's homes and respecting professional/ family boundaries! I have my certification to teach English, and in 2025 I tutored children in Italy. Last year I worked at an Outdoor Waldorf Preschool, where I gained a deeper understanding of the importance of nature play and limited screen time for children! I am passionate about fostering children's natural creativity and curiosity for learning, through play.
