A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Sophia Kyrkostas and I am 23 years old. I graduated college last May and I was a colligate Ice Hockey Player. I am now living in Chicago with my cousin who is from Ohio and I’m currently from Long Island, NY. I have grown up babysitting my little cousins and I adore children. I am so loving and caring when it comes to taking care of them, playing with them or even sitting down and reading to them!

A little bit about me

Hola 🤍
Estoy buscando una oportunidad como niñera. Amo trabajar con bebés y niños pequeños; para mí no es solo un trabajo, es algo que disfruto de verdad. Me encanta acompañarlos en su crecimiento, cuidar de ellos con paciencia, cariño y mucha responsabilidad.
Tengo disponibilidad para adaptarme a distintos horarios y entiendo lo importante que es la confianza cuando se trata de sus pequeños. También puedo colaborar con tareas ligeras del hogar, como ordenar, mantener limpio el espacio de los niños o ayudar con pequeñas actividades en casa.
Soy una persona atenta, tranquila y comprometida, y me gusta crear un ambiente seguro, amoroso y alegre para los niños. 🤍
