Dear Families,

My name is Zhenya. I am 20 years old.

I have an experience of working with children -- one was working as a camp counselor in a children's camp, and another -- volunteering in a kindergarten for several months, which was a space for both neurodivergent and neurotypical kids to develop. You can find the reference from there in the references section. I very much enjoyed both of these experiences and I want to continue working with children. I only worked with children under 12 years old, and I am the most comfortable, but not entirely limited to it.

I am able to be assertive when needed (although, I am definitely on a softer side, so if you are looking for someone strict, it is definitely not my speciality). What is most important to me is making sure the children feel safe and heard next to me. I am also in touch with my inner child and enjoy playing with children, doing DIY things together, reading for them.

I am a kind and calm person, quite melancholic. I have a lot of attention to detail. I am also incredibly responsible, it is very rare that I am late, and I like to be quite organized. I am quite sociable but like to have at least a little bit time for myself to recharge. I like when people are funny :)

I was born in Saint Petersburg, Russia, then I moved to NYC to study academical singing there for 3 years, then I moved to Berlin for a year for a LIberal Arts study abroad, and now I am living and studying in a small city in Hungary.

Russian is my native language, I speak English fluently, and I've studied German for a year and want to learn it more because I know it on quite elementary level as of now.

You might want to watch a video attached below about me, and get to know me a little bit better.

If you are interested, let's connect! I would like the communication between us to stay respectful and honest.
