l am an organized, reliable, and friendly Columbia University graduate seeking part-time, temporary, or occasional sitting positions in the Lehigh Valley. I have worked as a part-time sitter for two Manhattan families while I was an undergraduate. The first job was a morning drop-off and sitting job for a 4 year old girl. During last school year the job included punctual arrival at the family's house, safe travel by foot and bus, and morning sign-in to her classroom. I also babysat her at her house for half or full days when she had breaks from school and during the summer. I helped her with her school workbooks, played dolls and Legos, took trips to the park, prepared meals, told stories, and supervised bedtime. The second job was sitting for three children: two girls, 3 and 8, and one 6 year old boy. The job included pick-ups and drop-offs, after school Read more sitting, tidying up, and occasional late night sitting. I also worked as a soccer coach at Super Soccer Stars for groups of 2.5-8 year olds during the summer of 2015. I babysat for my childhood nanny's two year old son while I visited her in England last summer, and I babysat on occasional date nights for a 7 year old boy this past winter while I was then living in upstate NY. I have also cared for my twin boy cousins since they were infants. I have my own car and a clean background check, I am a non-smoker, and I am comfortable with pets: I own cats and have held a dog walking position. I am bilingual and speak Spanish fluently. I love spending time with my family and am the 5th oldest of 18 cousins. I enjoy just about anything that involves nature and would be happy to take the kids out to play sports, swim, bike, etc. Please contact me here regarding potential employment opportunities!
