About me

I graduated from Vassar College in 2017, where I completed a double major in Neuroscience and French. I also played on the Varsity Women's Soccer team. Since graduating, I worked in educational nonprofits for 4 years, so I have extensive experience teaching and tutoring any school subject! I would love for tutoring and/or sports to be a part of my Smart Sitting experience.

With three younger siblings, I grew up loving babies and children and have worked as a babysitter since I was a preteen. My mother is a developmental pediatrician, and since I was about 12 years old, she has been recommending me to families as a babysitter. During the summers and weekends, I focused on babysitting and helping families out in whatever way I could, mostly working for families of 3 children ranging from 2 years-10 years old.

I love to play soccer and other sports, sing, read, run, do yoga, and be outside. I pride myself on making sure I entertain the children I am taking care of with as little technology as possible. I am attentive and exciting while remaining responsible and hardworking. In high school, I took care of a 4-year-old boy with Autism, which was how I became especially interested in child development. Most of the experience I have has been with families of three children with ages ranging from 3 to 12 years old, but I am very comfortable with young infants as well. Recent babysitting jobs have included caring for three children during the day, providing meals and activities as well as transportation to and from parks and camps. I have worked at summer soccer camps with children from ages 5-15.

I have continually learned about children and how to be a better mentor and caregiver. Now, after spending 4 years building a career, I look forward to furthering my education with a graduate degree in counseling or education. I am excited to get back into childcare while I figure out my next steps!
