What your child’s day will look like

Hey, I’m Sophia, and I hope I get to meet your family. I also enjoy Academics, Active Games (Tag, Dodgeball, etc.), Art, Board Games / Card Games, Books, Sports, Technology. I am proud of my ability to be empathetic and understanding of individuals differences. My favorite genre of movie is a tie between Sci-Fi and Documentaries. I have been a Physics tutor for three years, and love to teach about Science. I was also a Nanny for 1 year, and Babysitter for 9 years. I love working with kids because they are full of energy and enthusiasm about life. They are very curious and inquisitive and I enjoy being able to nurture childhood curiosity and learning. I have an Adult and Pediatric First Aid and CPR certification, and you can see my other certifications and work preferences in the tags below--please make sure I’m a good fit for your family before booking! I work both full-day (8-hour) and half-day (4-hour) shifts in the mornings and afternoons. My schedule will show that I work from 1-5pm by default, but you can request your preferred time slot when you register. And if you’re looking for full-day care, be sure to add “Precare: Upgrade to Full Day” to your purchase. If you’re reserving multiple days, make sure you add that option for every day that you would like full-day care. Although you can only reserve dates about a month out, if things are working out well you’ll get the option to extend my time with your family. Please make sure I’m a good fit for your needs before booking. Thanks!

    Kirsten is a wonderful person, taking good care of our son this week - after his eyes surgery which was for us really important. She was able to engage our son for literally all the time, starting from early morning, until 5PM - in various and multiple activities - seriously I was really impressed. This is not the first time Tomek is staying with someone, but since I work from home, I naturally see can observe his interactions. I must say Kirsten was by far the best, really engaged, awesome contact like a best friend, also as an artist - she drew pictures that Tomek could colour. Always on time (actually, even a bit earlier), professional, fun, educating Tomek as well. As I said, Tomek was anxious after his surgery, and we are so lucky it was Kirsten who was giving care to Tomek - I was very happy to see him laughing, talking all the time, getting into educating activities. Thank you so much!

    She was perfection. My kids are still talking about her - the door dash snacks, the movie making, the karaoke.
