About Sophie

Hey! I am a junior @IUS on the cheerleading team, and studying Strategic Communication. I like working with kids because they are generally pretty active and energetic which relates with how I am as a person. I started working with kids summer 23, my neighbor owns a daycare so I started helping her out with ages 3-5. As of recent, I have watched kids with ages of 7 weeks all the way to 11 years old! I coach tumbling Wednesday nights with a range of ages from 3 to 12. This is an amazing job because it has taught me a lot about patience and encouragement for children. Seeing their faces light up when they learn a new skill makes me so happy. I love to be an outlet for them to look forward to every week. In my spare time, I like to go to the gym, go outside, do crafts or spend time with my family and pets. My skills include giving your children attention, being empathetic with what a they are feeling, and keeping them engaged and entertained throughout the day while you are gone.
