Meet Robert

  • Comfortable with pets
  • Has a car

Hi! My name is Robby. I’m a journalist working towards a full time career in food writing, but need some work in the meantime! During my middle and high school years, I worked as a swim coach, babysitter, and caregiver. I have over 7 years of experience giving children life skills, confidence, and a great time! I spent several years with the organization SportsPlus providing swim lessons to neurodivergent children, and am learning disabled myself, so I’m uniquely qualified to not only handle but empower a child with learning or cognitive disabilities. I have my own car, very flexible hours with my work as a freelancer, and am more than capable of helping out with homework. I graduated from high school with a 4.4 GPA and attended Bates College in Lewiston, Maine, where I graduated with a Bachelor of the Arts in Rhetoric, Film, and Screen Studies. But most importantly, Read more I can’t wait to meet you!
