My name is Sofia and I am 22 years old and a recent college graduate. I love to be outdoors especially the beach as I am a marine biology major. I am extremely dedicated to being active and am willing to do anything with children. I am located in Portsmouth RI and have my own car. My availability is full time and have a lot of flexibility with scheduling. A little bit about my experience: I have been a camp councilor at the Norman Bird Sanctuary in Middletown RI where a partner and I were in charge of the youngest group of children ages 3-5 years old. Many had special needs and I was required to look after them for a time period of 9-4 Monday through Friday. I have also been a babysitter for my neighbor for a year in which I was in charge of looking after an Read more infant (1-month)a 5-year-old and 6-year-old all boys. I have also worked with another military family with 3 boys all under the age of 10 with the eldest having CF. I am willing to do odd jobs as well with the pandemic.
