About Lydia
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Babysitting was my first job at 13, like many young girls. I currently work in a physics lab, finishing my undergrad in neuroscience after going back to school, and I'm a talented painter. If you're looking for exceptional care and supplemental help raising your child(takes a village!), I might be a good fit for your family. I am proud to say that one of my top qualities is trustworthiness. I used Care. com 10 years ago and I've returned because I miss being around little people that shape the future. I am open to kids with disabilities and aspiring artists and scientists. I am actually on the autism spectrum, although you would never know. With my background in psychology and neuroscience, I hope to contribute to our understanding. For now, I would like to help out individuals in my spare time. Thank you for reading, Lydia
