[My available start date is Monday, May 28, and I will be available through June 2019] Hello! My name is Meredith, I’m 22, and I am currently a senior at Sarah Lawrence College. I graduate in May, after which I am returning home to Seattle for a gap year before continuing my studies for a career in language education and interpretation. I love being around kids of all ages, and I have several year’s experience as a babysitter for newborns up through middle-schoolers, as well as experience as a teacher and camp counselor in two different schools. I’ve been praised for my kind but firm attitude with the children I’ve worked with, and I can handle everything from dirty diapers and tantrums to arts-and-crafts and kitchen science experiments. I know how to cook, clean, and drive, and I have conversational proficiency in Japanese and Spanish, as well some rudimentary Chinese. Read more I love music, astronomy, and especially the outdoors. I spend my summers at home in Seattle hiking and spending time with my family (and my beagle). My favorite childhood books are Harry Potter and Redwall. References are available upon request.
