Meet Dara

  • Comfortable with pets
  • Has a car

I am a 24-year-old second year doctoral student in clinical psychology with experience working with children in a variety of contexts. I have babysat for a variety of families since I was 12 years old. Specifically, I have worked as an aide for a child with a developmental disability at an after school program. I have also worked with children and parents involved in custody disputes for 3.5 years at Associates in Human Development Counseling, LLC in Arlington Heights, IL. Given my educational background in clinical psychology, I have a great deal of knowledge about human development and psychology, which I apply in my work as a babysitter. I have experience working with people with a variety of mental health problems, which has helped me to become patient and understanding in working with people who may be difficult to work with.
