My name is Sofia, I’m 25 years old and I love the magic of childhood! I’m currently a Doctoral student studying clinical psychology with a specialty in working with children and families. I just moved from California to DC for my last year of doctoral internship. Being able to babysit would align with my values of working with kids and mean money to support my studies! I consider myself warm, thoughtful, reliable, safe, adaptable, energetic, artistic and fun! I can also help with homework, cooking, cleaning, driving, and house chores/errands! I speak Spanish and English! I have past experience as a babysitter for children 3-13 and a as a preschool co-op teacher who supported 6 kids by myself! Clinically, I have experience as a therapist in training for middle school aged children and a play therapist in training and assessment clinician for children ages 0-10 on the autism spectrum, with Read more adhd, with learning differences, with selective mutism, and other behavioral concerns. I just finished interning as a therapist in training at Kaiser for kids 5-18! Able to provide references and background check on request!
