👪 Hi families, my name is Lydia and I'm a senior at Harvard College graduating with a degree in Neurobiology this spring! I am currently in the Boston area for school and I will be living in the Albany area with my fiance (another Harvard grad) starting this July. I love nannying and tutoring kids of all ages! Feel free to contact me to chat about your childcare needs. 🎓 I got a perfect score on my ACT and I can tutor all ages in all subjects with just a bit of prep time! ☀️ I have 1 year of experience working in a summer youth enrichment center where I gave homework help; led outdoor activities; chaperoned field trips; designed and led class games, drama activities, arts and crafts; and taught music. I worked with kids from pre-K to 5th grade. 🎾 I used to play varsity tennis and run Read more track, and I still love to play both sports! I have competed in powerlifting competitions and I also love to strength train. 🎵 I play the flute and have experience in marching band and musical theater! ⚕️ I have my basic life support certification and I have worked as a certified nursing assistant in a transitional care unit.
