I am a recent graduate of Georgetown Law School, looking to work in the evenings or on weekends to help pay back student loans while working during the week. I grew up regularly babysitting my three younger siblings as well as most of the neighborhood children, and through my tutoring have more recently worked with many more young children. I also have extensive experience caring for children under age 5 with cerebral palsy and autism. I am a preeminently responsible, highly neat and organized, and very engaged caregiver. I love keeping children active, with trips to D.C. museums and parks and with arts and crafts. As an experienced tutor, I would also be happy to work with children on their schoolwork or to help young children learn how to read. I have received CPR and other lifesaving training multiple times over the past 15 years, most recently two years ago Read more while serving as a Resident Advisor at Georgetown Law. I do not have a car, but use ride-sharing apps extensively and can easily reach any location in D.C. or its surrounding areas.
