About Matthew

Experience: 10 yrs

Hi! I'm Matt, and I'm interested in providing thoughtful and engaging care for elementary-aged children and up. I've spent several years working with and mentoring children in different capacities. Growing up, I was a summer camp counselor for five years, working with children ranging from kindergarten through fifth grade. More recently, I spent two years as a Big Brother in Boston, mentoring a 10-year-old boy. I've also taught piano to children ages 6-10. My approach to caregiving is calm, consistent, and encouraging, while leaving room for creativity and fun. Having grown up in an area that wasn't very diverse, I developed an appreciation for different cultures and perspectives through living in Maui for 2 years after college. I enjoy exploring different cultures, and believe children benefit from being exposed to experiences and perspectives beyond their immediate surroundings. I'm looking forward to connecting with families who value curiosity, creativity, and dependable care!

Matt is an amazing caregiver. He provided the space for my 9yo and kept him away from his iPad which is always a win for me! What I loved most about him is the ability to dive into his world while providing proper guidance, open communication and hold space for accountability without losing the fun. I would 100% have him take care of my child anytime he’s back in SD!
