About Sophie

Experience: 5 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I am a freshman at Duke University with 5+ years of babysitting experience! I offer child care, pet care, and household services. I started babysitting when I was 13, but I am an older sister so I have been taking care of my sister since I was old enough to help out. I babysat throughout middle and high school for several different families. My responsibilities included bedtime, bath time, cooking, cleaning, and pet care. In the summer, I have taken kids to and from the pool and summer camps. I am studying public policy, but in my free time I am a member of the Duke mock trial team, I am the Kappa Alpha Theta events director, and I love to read! One thing you should know about me is I love coming up with creative ways to keep kids off screens! I love crafts, sports, and board games so I can find a fun screen free activity for any kid. My top three child care skills are patience, activity planning, and tutoring/homework help. I look forward to meeting your family!

Sophie is our go to sitter, our son loves her! She is kind, punctual, respectful, mature well beyond her years and a natural when it comes to kids of all ages. She has become like family to us; highly recommend her to other families as well - your kids will love her!! Truly the best.
