Hello! My name is Rachel and I have dedicated my life to becoming a knowledgable and compassionate care professional. I recently graduated from Boston University with degrees in Special Education and Sociology. I am also CPR certified. I currently serve as a site coordinator with the Pencil Foundation, running a STEM-focus after school program at Croft Middle School. Previously, I have worked at the Mary Lyon school in Boston, Chicago Children's Advocacy Center, Horizons for Homeless Children, Birch Trail Camp for Girls and many more. I feel passionate about giving children the individualized support they need to thrive and grow. As a babysitter, my main goals are to: - Get your child outside or doing something hands on and interactive- away from the electronics - Be goofy and creative with your child! - Ensure that your child is safe and secure at all times.
