About Mary Helen

Experience: 10 yrs

Hello! I'm a recent Oxford graduate who just moved to NYC. I've worked as a nanny, tutor, and college teaching assistant. I bring over 10 years of babysitting experience, 5 years experience babysitting kids with special needs, and 5 years of petsitting experience. Families have described me as friendly, kind, calm, engaging, and playful! I'm a great option if you're looking for after school pickup help, date night coverage, or extra hands on weekends. Neighborhood: Crown Heights (no car, but I have a bike and easy transit access) Education: BA Duke University (History, Statistics), MSc University of Oxford (Migration Studies) Languages: English, French (rusty!), Basic ASL (I grew up signing with deaf family members) Great with animals. Let me know if there's a cat (allergic, but I can take medicine)! Activities: Meal prep, playtime, crafts, sports/outdoors, music, bedtime

Mary Helen was wonderful! She watched our 14 month old for the evening and everything went smoothly. She was so warm and friendly and our daughter was comfortable with her instantly. They played, did dinner and bedtime all without a hitch. Mary Helen was punctual, professional and came highly recommended by her previous clients. She's new to care.com but I know she's going to be booked up in a flash!
