I am in Montauk, NY through July* I am a rising junior at Middlebury College in VT, with a major in Psychology and minors in Education and Environmental Studies. I graduated from Deerfield Academy in 2018, and attended a semester school in The Bahamas called The Island School my sophomore year of high school. At DA, I babysat faculty/local children, served as a Big Sister with Big Brothers Big Sisters and led for the middle-school branch of the local Young Life. In the Fall of 2018 I was a live-in Au pair in Sicily, Italy for two children, ages 4 and 8, and it was an unforgettable experience! At Midd I work at a preschool, and it is absolutely a joy. In past summers I've beach lifeguarded, waitressed and babysat in Nantucket, but this year I have been working with college peers on the creation and management of a COVID Read more relief focused, e-childcare platform on LI, NY, called HomeBuddies. With our summer jobs and internships canceled due to COVID-19, we wanted to find a way to contribute something positive to our very crazy world right now. Our website is HomeBuddiesMentoring.com - feel free to check it out! I love the energy children bring, and I am experienced with a range of ages and settings!
