Hi! I'm Rachael! I've babysat for multiple families since I was in middle school. Most notably, I sat for a family of 3 children long-term. I began as a mother's helper when the son was 3 years old and the twin daughters were 6 months old. As I gained experience, I transition to babysitting during the day, night, and over several days. I also went on several trips with the family to assist with watching the children. I particularly enjoy participating in activities each individual child enjoys - whether it's playing games, constructing tents, or making crafts! Outside of babysitting, I worked in a middle/high school STEM Academy through AmeriCorps after graduating from college in 2010. Following that experience, I managed literacy programming for elementary school students in DC. I recently completed my Master's degree at the Harvard Graduate School of Education and am now working for a local school Read more district. I'm available in to babysit weekday evenings and weekends!
