Hi my name is Sofia but everybody call me Sof or Sofi, I'm 18 and yes I know I'm a little young to be a babysitter but I have a lot of experience after I worked for a couple years in a daycare (which was at home) so I really like to have fun with kids. I'm really energetic and creative. I speak Spanish, English, and a bit of Italian. I really like to cook and I love pets.
