Hey, I'm Julia! I'm a recent graduate from the University of Iowa with a B.S. in Neuroscience. I'm taking a gap year while I apply to medical school and am looking to babysit in my free time! I have extensive experience working with kids - I worked at a daycare for 5 years, with my last year being a lead teacher in the infant room. For the past 2 years, I've worked in a pediatric neurocognitive research lab on campus. I primarily worked with participants ranging from 6-24 months of age. I also have experience working with children with cognitive disabilities, as I have a younger family member who has cognitive impairments and autism. I love children and am hoping to pursue a career in pediatrics in the future! Looking forward to getting to know your family!
