Meet Sofia
- Speaks English and Spanish
- Comfortable with pets
Hello, hello! I’m Sofia Maria, a CPR certified, fully vaccinated nursing student, aspiring midwife and soon to be CNA based in Chicago’s North Park/ Albany Park neighborhood. I have over 5 years of child care experience. From one on one babysitting and church childcare programs to implementing therapeutic special needs activities. As a native English/Spanish speaker I have taught both as a second language. I have provided academic support to children from elementary through high school. Playful and energetic in all of these settings, kids have enjoyed their time with me as much as I have enjoyed working with them. I am looking to work part time until May 12th and will be available to work full time during the summer months, from June through August.
