About Sonia

Reviewed on 6/15/2023

We hired Sonia for 6 months to pick our son up from daycare and care for him on sick days (which were a lot this year). Sonia has an endless supply of patience and cheerful energy which is wonderful for our active boy! She is present and creative, devising activities that both challenge and delight our son: teaching him numbers/colors/vegetables in Spanish, finding him new books, teaching him new songs, inventing stories with his toys, convincing him to nap, taking him to the park, organizing play dates etc. She treats our son as a person- tailoring the activities to his personality but also mood on that particular day. She is kind and warm, and our 3 month old loves being held by her. She is the kind of caregiver who delights in interacting with babies and children (never seen her on her phone). She also helps around the house: doing laundry, cleaning, tidying, and occasional light cooking. She also gets along with other caregivers in our building as well as our own family members when they come to visit. We will miss her!
