Hi, my name is Rachel! I'm a 24-year-old graduate student with over ten years of experience in childcare! I'm working towards my clinical mental health counseling and dance/movement therapy license. I have a semester-changing schedule but look forward to working part-time for a family throughout my studies. More About Me: I started my babysitting business at the age of fourteen and have worked for over ten different families since then! I have cared for children as young as six months and as old as twelve. I love working with children of all ages but have specific expertise with younger-aged kiddos between one to five years! During my teen years, I also worked at several different camps as a counselor, usually overseeing 15-20 children at a time. In undergrad, I completed two internships with non-profits that worked with children and was hired at one right after graduation! I spent the next Read more two years working in a school for the deaf and blind. My students also had severe to profound disabilities and medical conditions. I'm very comfortable and experienced working with children/adults who have disabilities and willing to discuss my qualifications should they arise! I love to create art, dance around, read, and engage children in play! I've been told I'm a patient and nurturing care provider who always creates a safe space for children to learn and grow. Please feel free to reach out with any questions...I hope I'm the right fit for your family!
