Meet Skylar

Hey there! My name is Skylar and I am 26 years old. I recently graduated from Teachers College, Columbia University where I got my masters in Communication Sciences and Disorders to become a professional Speech-Language Pathologist. I am currently looking for short term opportunities (e.g., date nights, events, etc) until I start full-time work on January 21st. I have been working with children, as both a babysitter and as a teaching assistant, for about 7 years now and have experience working with a wide range of ages, from 6 mos to 15 yrs. Furthermore, I have several years of experience working with children with varying special needs and developmental delays. As a babysitter, I ensure the children not only have a good time spent with me, but also learn something new everyday. I hope to share my knowledge, form lasting friendships, and continue positively impacting the lives of children. If Read more I seem like a good fit for you and your needs, please feel free to contact me :) I will also provide references if needed!
