Sofia $35 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Sofia, and I'm originally from Seattle, Washington. I have a passion for working with children, and have 5+ years of experience in babysitting/childcare positions. I am currently a 4th year international business student at Northeastern University. Since moving to Boston for school, I am looking forward to continue working with children and families in the Boston area! In my hometown of Seattle, I worked as a volunteer (later promoted to paid) reading coach for 2nd and 3rd-grade students at Team Read for 3 semesters. Additionally, I volunteered as a camp counselor at Girls Rock Math for two summers, leading 1st through 8th-grade girls in educational and social camp activities. Furthermore, I have regularly babysat and nannied for numerous families in the Seattle area, including families with as many as 4 children, ages 0-16. I would be more than happy to provide references upon request! Having grown up with a younger sister, I have been around children my entire life. To every family I work with, I bring my creativity, imagination, bubbly personality, and organizational skills. I look forward to hearing from you!

Booked by 5 families in Cambridge, MA

Hello! I am a student at Northeastern University here in Boston, but am originally from Southern California. I am currently studying Math and Data Science. I have been in childcare for over five years now, and have extensive experience with children of all ages. I have made long term connections with families in California, and am looking to make some here in Boston! My experience includes caring for multiple children, cooking, cleaning, bathing, taking to school/activities, and entertaining multiple children at once. I am mainly looking for nights and weekends as I am currently working a full-time internship. Looking forward to meeting you and your family!
