Hi there, I'm Rachel! I'm 28 years old and graduated in 2016 with a degree in Psychology and Human Development & Family Studies. Experience: I've babysat for families with multiple kids ranging from 2 months - 14 years old, including twins and children with autism, ADHD, and sensory processing disorder. I've worked as a camp counselor and as a social skills group facilitator for kids with Autism and ADHD. I was an ESL teacher for elementary students in Korea. I worked as an au pair in Australia where I also had the opportunity to volunteer at two schools for kids with special needs. I've most recently worked as a daycare teacher for one to three year olds. I aim to provide a supportive, encouraging space for children to explore, grow, and be themselves. I love being outdoors, doing arts & crafts, reading, and engaging in ways that don't rely on Read more technology. I'm a compassionate, patient, and open-minded individual. I realize the importance of adapting to each family's specific needs, and look forward to chatting with your family!
