Meet Craig

Shari says:
Craig will be a great dad!  He is patient and caring and will be wonderful answering our child’s many “why?” questions.  He’s so full of curiosity, and is excited to introduce our child to all New York offers, from jazz and museums, to the Central Park zoo, to Russian pastries in Brooklyn.

Craig says:
I’ve dreamed of being a dad for a long time and as I traveled, I collected toys and kids’ books for the day when I’d be able to read to my child and play with them.

I grew up in New York City – in the neighborhood we live in now – and then moved to a suburb north of the city.  After college I worked and traveled in England, France and South Africa.  

All my jobs have involved being a good listener and caring about people. I used to be a journalist and a college teacher. Now I run my own market research company. I will be able to take time off when our child arrives, and scale back my hours to spend time with them.

I’m excited about walking our child to school in the morning and helping them learn new things. I’m also looking forward to quiet times and bedtime stories. I can’t wait for the day I can teach them to ride a two-wheeler and eventually when we’re able to ride bikes together. (I ride my bike a lot, both to work and for fun).
