Hello! I am Sofia, I am 18 years old and just graduated from Petaluma High School this past school year (class of 2016). I have played soccer and basketball my entire life and have even worked with coaching younger kids in both sports. I plan on attending a UC after my time off from school, and have been considering becoming a teacher. I am bilingual, my second language is danish. I have traveled to Europe 35+ times which has had amazing impact on me and helped me learn so much about the world. On my free time I like to take mini vacations around California and attend local music festivals. My prior employment has mainly been retail. My first job was at Osh Kosh B'gosh, the children's store, where part of my responsibilities included helping mothers, fathers, and other relatives find what merchandise worked best for their children. From then Read more on I worked at 2 other retail stores, Zumiez and now currently Pac Sun. During these jobs I did have an on call job as a sitter. From age 12-present day I have done nanny jobs for the kids in my neighborhood whenever the parents needed a night out. I really enjoy being around kids and engaging with them and their interests. I am extremely outgoing and can handle lots of energy, I am willing to take your child/children to the park or do any kind of indoor or outdoor activity with them. My high school GPA ranged from 3.5-4.0 and I enjoy learning so I would be more than happy to help out with homework or any school related tasks. I am extremely open to any requirement you as the parents have, from simple tasks to tutoring, cleaning, preparing meals, driving, etc. I am open to all ages and I would love to answer any questions you have to make sure I am the right fit for your family. I can be your alternative to expensive daycare :)
