Hi, I'm Sophia! I'm 24 years old. I absolutely love children and have been babysitting since I was 11 years old. My professional experience ranges from getting kids on and off the school bus, getting them ready for bed and getting them up in the morning, preparing snacks and meals for them, full-time and overnight care, etc. I have watched a super incredible 4 year old with Downs Syndrome and his 6 month old sister. I nannyed for an awesome 8 year old (whom I watched from ages 5-8) on the autism spectrum. I have also watched twins. Additionally, I have watched an infant with Downs Syndrome, and three siblings under the age of 10. I was a full-time nanny for 3 years for a wonderful infant into toddler stages. I myself also have younger siblings. I love children, and being able to have a positive impact on everyone's life. I do work another job 7-4:30pm, so nowadays I generally have late afternoon and evening/night availabilities, on weekdays (and weekends I am often available all day), so perfect for anyone looking for after-school care and date/self-care nights. Thanks and have a lovely day! :-)
