Hello! My name is Sierra and I am a 23 year old student at George Mason University in the Bachelors of Science Psychology program. I have worked with children since I was 14 and as an adult have worked with kids from newborns to seventeen years old. I am able to watch multiple kids at one time, and have experience working with twin babies. Due to working at a daycare, I have experience working alone with up to six children at one time (although I prefer to keep the limit at four). I have worked in child care (aside from sitting) for a total of six years including swim coaching, daycare, and behavioral/cognitive training. I also have experience with tutoring and am currently working in cognitive training. With tutoring I am keen on mathematics up algebra two/functions and analytical geometry, psychology, English/comprehension, social studies, and science. I love helping individuals Read more find tools and patterns that help them with learning and applying what they've learned. I was previously CPR/First Aid/AED certified for 3 years, but my certification has expired due to the pandemic. I am looking for perpetual sitting services or even one-time/occasional services, and am interested in nannying as well. I am currently working part time and my schedule allows a lot of flexibility.

Sierra is amazing. She is emotionally intelligent and takes initiative to do activities with the kids rather than waiting for direction. Her background in psychology makes her understand how to handle difficult situations without much trouble. She is a delight and a positive influence to have around children.
