About Andrea

Experience: 14 yrs

I have worked as a childcare provider and skills trainer for over 14 years. I currently work as a graphic designer and am looking for opportunities to work with kids again. I am comfortable with large groups of kids and can build relationships with children very quickly. I have a Bachelor's degree in Psychology and Women's Studies and worked in both community-based and inpatient youth mental health for 14 years. I babysat through care. com from 2010 to 2016. I mostly have weekend availability but can also work evenings after 3:30 p.m. I am an illustrator and crafter and have a lot of experience planning creative activities for kids. Television wasn't usually an option for entertaining children where I have worked, so I have a long list of active and mellow activities to fall back on. I take a yes and approach to play because an engaged kid is a happy kid and more responsive to adult redirection if needed. I was trained annually for 14 years in adult and child CPR/First Aid.

Andrea was great—my 8 year old daughter especially loved the time spent with her, really loved the art and craft time! Communication and entire process with her was very easy—we would definitely book with Andrea again. Thanks!
