Hi! I am a recent graduate from Pitt. I am 22 years old and currently taking a gap year before applying to medical school. During my gap year, I am taking an EMT class this summer to work in emergency medicine. I am interested in becoming a child psychiatrist. I have a strong passion for helping families feel supported and cared for. I have experience working in hospitals, so I am CPR and BLS certified. I have a year of experience babysitting for a family with 4 children (12 y/o girl, 9 y/o girl, 6 y/o boy, and 3 y/o boy). I love spending time with children of all ages. I enjoy being outside and active. I also love arts and crafts (mess-free of course). I am hard-working, spirited, and enthusiastic.

Hi! my name is Cecilia, I am a sophomore in college, and I love to be around children and pets. I have a very big family so I have always grown up babysitting and watching my younger cousins and I have always loved every second of it. I also love dogs! I have always grown up having dogs so I love taking care of them, and playing with them. I have a very fun loving and attentive personality, I love being outdoors, and soaking up the sun, doing things like hiking, going on walks, and swimming. I would also be more than happy to cook, clean, and run errands as well!
