Sophia M., Child Care in Penitas, TX 78576 with 0 years of paid experience

I am a soon-to-be medical school graduate pursuing a career in pediatric cardiology, and I have extensive experience working with children in both medical and educational settings. During my pediatric rotation, I gained hands-on experience caring for infants, toddlers, and adolescents in a clinical environment, learning how to communicate effectively and compassionately with both children and their families. I also worked as a tutor for high school students, where I developed skills in engaging and motivating kids with different personalities and learning styles. Outside of academic and medical settings, I’ve had meaningful childcare experience with my own family. Over the past year, I’ve regularly babysat my sister’s newborn, handling everything from feedings and diaper changes to naps and playtime. I also occasionally care for my cousins’ children, who are 3 and 7 years old. These experiences have given me a strong understanding of the different needs of children at various developmental stages and how to support them with patience, structure, and fun. I am responsible, reliable, and great at keeping kids engaged while making sure they are safe and well cared for. Whether it’s helping with homework, organizing creative activities, or sticking to a family’s routine, I take pride in respecting parents’ expectations and household rules. I have reliable transportation and am comfortable around pets.

Got it! I’ll adjust your answers with that nurturing. Why do you love being a sitter? I love being a sitter because caring for children is something that truly brings me joy. I love nurturing kids and helping them grow into emotionally intelligent, independent, and functional individuals. Creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment where they can learn and thrive is deeply rewarding, and I value the trust families place in me to be part of their child’s everyday life. What experience do you have? I have over 5 years of experience working with children ages 1–11 as a teacher at my church, where I planned activities, supervised groups, and supported their learning in a positive, engaging way. I also served with AmeriCorps and worked at the Boys & Girls Club, where I supported kids through after-school programs, mentoring, and structured play. These roles gave me experience working with children from diverse backgrounds and supporting their social, emotional, and educational development. What skills and training do you have?** Through my years of childcare and youth program experience, I’ve developed strong skills in communication, patience, activity planning, and conflict resolution. I’m experienced in balancing fun with structure, helping with homework, and encouraging positive social skills. In addition, I am PR and First Aid certified, and I’ve received training through AmeriCorps and the Boys & Girls Club that emphasized safety, leadership, and child development. Families can feel confident knowing I bring both hands-on experience and professional training to the children I care for.
