About Sophie

Experience: 6 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

Hi! Connecting with children while supporting them to grow into themselves brings me such joy--there is nothing quite like it. I have been taking care of kids since I was practically a kid myself. I believe in learning through play, and am a very hands-on caregiver. I have a strong ability to cue in to the emotions and needs of those around me. I have a wide range of experience with children ages 1-15, and in every context I ensure their safety while having lots of fun. I am a skilled multitasker with an eye for detail. I love to cook, craft and teach through play. I have experience with distance learning and understand how important structure during at-home school can be. In addition to CPR/First aid, I am Wilderness First Aid and Lifeguard certified. I also love coming up with creative projects and games!
