Hi there! Starting in September, I will be a second-year student at UVA majoring in Sociology and Politics and living right off-grounds. I am from Gaithersburg, Maryland and have had extensive childcare experience over the past five years. Aside from having three younger siblings (four if you count my dog :), I have been babysitting for families in my neighborhood since the beginning of high school. I have also worked as an after-school religious school teacher for elementary aged children, which gave me experience in creating fun and engaging ways to teach children new content. Additionally, I worked seasonally for the past two years at the Kids Academy at a Life Time fitness center, where I specialized primarily in watching and entertaining infants (3-11 months) and toddlers (1-2 years). I have also worked as a tutor on numerous occasions to high school teens, primarily in history and English. I love Read more games, songs, and crafts as a way to bond with children. I have a passion for skiing, reading, football (go Bills!), politics, and UVA sports. I do not have a car at school but am willing to walk from UVA or use public transportation as needed. Please reach out with any inquiries regarding my services, I look forward to meeting you!
