About Sophia
Experience: 3 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
I am a licensed clinical social worker in the process of a career shift and I am looking for part time work while I continue my job search. My childcare style is heavily influenced by my own experience in a Waldorf/ Montessori school growing up. I emphasize creative games, crafts, and outside play time. I am most experienced with young children, from infancy to 5 years, but I am comfortable caring for children of any age. I am comfortable with changing diapers, feeding. I have worked as a babysitter and nanny on and off since my teenage years and was a Big Sister (of Big Brothers, Big Sisters mentorship program) in high school. I have 8 nieces and nephews and enjoy spending time with kids.

Sophia is absolutely amazing! She’s been babysitting for us for the past few months, and we couldn’t be happier. Our kid adores her, and we feel completely comfortable leaving our kid in her care. She’s responsible, reliable, and always comes up with fun activities to keep the kid entertained. She’s always on time and communicates well. Highly recommend Sophia for anyone looking for a trustworthy and kind babysitter!
