Olivia $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Olivia and I'm currently a graduate student at Simmons University. I am offering child care and household services. I've worked as a teaching assistant in several elementary schools and have worked specifically with children with special needs. I worked as an assistant teacher in Howell NJ with children preschool-kindergarten and 1st-2nd grade for three summers. I also worked most recently as a teacher's assistant in Easton PA for 2nd grade students, tutoring in reading and math. I worked as a teacher in my local church's Sunday school for four years, working with kids between 3rd-5th grade. I love working with kids of all ages and engaging with them in whatever their interests may be! I can offer tutoring in math, history, reading/writing, art lessons, as well as beginner lessons in Latin and Russian. I love arts and crafts, playing sports (especially tennis and dance), and reading. I'm available for household services such as cleaning, running errands, and laundry.
