Meet Sophie

Hi, I'm Sophie! I am a recent graduate of Teachers College, Columbia University, where I earned a Masters degree in motor control and motor development. I have more than 15 years of babysitting experience in private homes as well as 5 years of early childhood teaching experience in New York City. I especially love working with elementary aged children and have experience working with both children and adults with special needs. I am a passionate learner and am fully committed to being an engaged, active, and compassionate caregiver. My approach is different for every child because no two children are the same; I work to instill the same love of learning, play, and discovery with every child and live for the 'lightbulb moments' when children make connections, learn something new, or find happiness in a new place. I am so excited to meet you and your child, and to grow Read more and learn together.. Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions or comments.
