A little bit about me. I am a kind, patient, loving, easy going, honest, reliable, caring and a fun person. The reason why I love working with children is because I love kids. For me it is a joy to interact and play with children and to help them explore their world. I like to spend time getting to know them and really understand who they are inside. For me it is important to spend meaningful time with them where I encourage them to learn in a positive, safe, healthy and fun way. I honestly believe that kids are the greatest gift of life, they need to be loved and to be listened to. Also, they need positive attention to help them grow healthy, spiritually, mentally, and physically. They require an enormous amount of patience -- it pays off in so many ways. I love to work with parents who understand that they need to spend time with their children but who are busy with their professional lives. This is where I work with the parents to come up with a plan so you as a parent can spend the quality time with your children and allow me to manage the day to day activities when you are unable to spend time with them.

Hello!:) My name is Sofiya but I go by Sofi. I was born in Ukraine and moved to the states when I was still a little girl. I have a really big family so I’ve been helping with the kids since I was 9. I’ve been around newborns consistently throughout my life making me comfortable and confident with newborns, infants, toddlers and older kiddos. I’m very patient and love to have fun with the kiddos like hand painting, taking them to the park or even baking if that’s something the children would like to do. I’m experienced in sleep training and introducing solids to infants and am very patient when it comes to fussy newborns. I’m more than happy to assist in helping set up routines for babies and toddlers and trying different routines different days until we find the perfect one for the kiddos.:) I’ve also worked with children who are on the spectrum so I’m very confident when it comes to keeping your kids safe and happy. I am planning on going to college for psychology next year so that I can pursue a career in working with children ( Behavioral Therapist ). I am very passionate when I am working and will go with the flow of your children. I’m a good cook so I am also more than happy to cook for your children. I’m a big animal lover as well so no issues at all with pets being in the home.:) Thank you for taking time out of your day to read this and I hope to talk soon!:)
