A little bit about me

My name is Sophia and I have been a nanny/babysitter for over 10 years now. I have a huge passion for kids and love being around them and teaching them new things.

In college I played Division II volleyball while also earning my Bachelors Degree in General Studies.

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

I have been a babysitter for over 10 years, was a nanny to a family of three little boys for 6 years, and have also been a youth volleyball coach for 6 years now.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love being outside and exploring nature, playing a good board game, drawing with chalk, playing with dolls/toys, and building life long memories.

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important part about being a nanny is being a safe space for the kids. I always want the kids to feel loved, special, safe, and supported because they are!

My experience with special needs children...

When I was in college I volunteered with our college's ASTEP program, which was the special needs program for college students on campus. I was assigned a "buddy" and twice a week my buddy and I would go do an activity together. My buddy loved sports just like me so we were often in the gym playing either basketball, volleyball, hockey, or soccer.

The most important part about being a nanny...

My favorite nanny moment is when I get to teach the kids something new and watch them learn it and apply it into their lives. I don't think there's anything more rewarding than that.
