A little bit about me

-I’m 23 years old and I love drawing and exercising. This summer I’ve successfully completed the EMT certification program at Cabrillo college- with intentions of keeping an open mind to potential new job opportunities with that. I’m 1 of 11 siblings, I know, right? My mother and most of my siblings have careers in healthcare- ultimately exposing me to the baby sitting/child care of most of my nieces and nephews, from a young age.
-I like to pursue life with an open mind to all; prioritizing kindness and respect in each interaction Im faced.
-I genuinely love cleaning/organizing.

A little bit about me

Hi, I’m Sophia! I’m based in the Aptos/Santa Cruz area and have extensive childcare experience, including nannying, tutoring, and supporting children with special needs. I’m currently a college student on break and will have full availability throughout the summer. Starting in late August, I’ll be attending cosmetology school, but I’ll still be available with a more limited schedule.

I love creating a fun, safe, and engaging environment for kids—whether doing arts and crafts, or staying active with hands-on, screen-free activities. I’m also happy to help with cooking, light cleaning, and helping the kids get around. I’m reliable, patient, and passionate about helping kids learn and grow!
