Hi there! My name is Sophia and I am currently pursuing my master's in Social Work at UIC. I recently completed a year of service teaching in Chicago Public Schools (CPS). Apart from my working experience, I love to paint, draw and have been playing piano for 10+ years. I am creative and love to involve myself in art and music in my day to day life. I have a vast knowledge of child development and social emotional learning, as I have my Bachelor's of Science degree in Psychology. I have experience babysitting children (5 years), teaching swim lessons (6 years), and teaching a classroom of 28 (1 year). I have my certifications in CPR and first aid, which I am more than willing to provide for reference. Apart from my educational and child care experience, personally, I am a kind, outgoing, and intelligent care giver. I am a compassionate Read more and warm individual. I am usually the one people go to for help and advice, as I am nonjudgmental and a great listener. I hope to hear from you soon and discuss more with how I can be a great sitter for your family!
