Babysitter, Artist, Pet Sitter & Teacher
I have 10 years' experience working with children of all ages. I enjoy doing a variety of educational activities with children, and especially to do arts and crafts with them. I am a professional artist and I can draw anything kids like, teach them how to draw and paint, do clay modeling, origami and face painting, as well as assist with homework if needed. Parents have always loved the fact that their kids are active and doing/learning so many nice things. English is my second language, and art (drawing, painting) has been my passion since I was very young. I love it that I the privilege not only to practice it for myself everyday but to encourage young children to enjoy it as much as I do, and develop their creative abilities. I also have a BA in Fine Art degree.

We had Violeta a few times last year, and I took to her immediately. She was very engaging, taught the girls songs and really built a good rapport with them. I was very happy with her and wanted to user her again, but our circumstances changed. I would recommend her and would certainly use her again if she's available.

Violetta worked with us for about a year from 2013-14. She was good with the kids, very creative. I had a new-born and she was very creative, engaged in activities with our four year-old and caring with the baby. She was reliable, she came when she said she’d come. She really helped us out, and also around the house. Definitely I’d recommend her – she’s a nice person to have around. The kids really enjoyed being around her, doing things like art work and painting.

Violeta babysat our 7-year-old daughter during our recent visit to London. She had a kind, calm demeanor, and our daughter took to Violeta immediately and really enjoyed her time with her. She kept us updated and asked appropriate questions, like whether it was OK to buy a slime toy our daughter wanted. In addition to being able to safely navigate the city on adventures to a park and a cat cafe, Violeta is a professional artist who was able to get our active daughter to sit and draw. Our daughter is picky about her babysitters, and Violeta definitely met her high standards. I would highly recommend her.
