A little bit about me
I have over 10+ years of experience working with children as a nanny, babysitter, Registered Behavior Technician, and Special Education Aide. Nothing brings me more joy than watching a child grow and develop into themselves. I am an organized, prompt, and consistent person which I believe sets a healthy foundation for my relationship with the child(ren) and their family. I enjoy being active, spending time outdoors, exploring local libraries and parks, and reading. I encourage a wide range of interests for the children I care for.

Hello! My name is Sophia and I'm 27 years old. I've been in the childcare industry for about 10 years now. My past jobs include: working at my local park district, nannying for multiple families (all who had very different family dynamics) and working as a pediatric therapy support technician at a rehab hospital.

I am looking for a minimum of 40 hours a week and a maximum of 45 hours a week. My interests include skateboarding, photography, art, writing, reading, embroidery, exercising, going to concerts, and hanging out with my family and friends. I am located in Glen Ellyn (looking to move to the Oak Park area).
