A little bit about me
Hello! my name is Soriah I am a San Marcos, Texas local with plenty of childcare experience. I previously was employed at Kids of Kingdom daycare where I cared for up to eight, 2-year-olds at a time as well as helping out in the baby room and 1-year-old class. I was most recently employed at Sunset AfterSchool Program, where I was the group leader for the 1st graders. I have built connections with kids of all ages in the program k-5. I love caring for children and making sure their needs are met. I am baby/adult CPR certified, and went through several childcare trainings for the child care position I held. Now I am looking for a change as my Boss retires closing the program and I plan to move to my dream city Boston to continue my career and become a live-in-nanny. I am a very active college student who loves art, music, running, soccer, and just being active. I am a trustworthy, fun, and reliable caregiver. Hope you consider me and have a great day!

A little bit about me
I am a recent masters graduate and professional freelance violinist and teacher. At this point in my life I have a lot of extra free time aside from my musical work and am seeking another full time job to supplement my income. I have previously worked as a daycare teacher as well as a nanny and absolutely adore children. Unfortunately I am unable to have any right now which is one of the reasons why I enjoy being a nanny so much. I am also a huge education advocate and love exploring the vast ways of learning that each individual child has. I will be more than willing to help with school work if needed especially musical studies as that is my strong point. I am perfectly comfortable with pets as I have two dogs myself, one big and one small.

Hello, i have my bachelors degree in internation relation and speak 4 languages fluently, English, French and Spanish and my native language Sousou. But one of my favorite hobby is spend time with children, because I’m compassionate, outgoing, and working with children come to me as second natural. I believes patients is key when working with children. Every child is different, and you have to know how to work with all different personalities. I puts extra focus on creating a safe environment both physically and emotionally for children in her care. I enjoys spending time outdoors, but in severe
weather I can find keeping everyone
entertained. I will often do painting,
coloring, make fun snacks, or do imaginary
play. When working with children who are
struggling with their behavior, I will use
the counting system to give them til ten count to regroup. Then I will help the children to a better solution to the problem they are facing.
