About Sophie James

Hi, I'm Sophie , a 22-year-old New Yorker. I'm seeking babysitting jobs before I begin my full-time position in January . I'm fluent in Spanish and happy to help kids practice or learn. I've been babysitting in my neighborhood since my teens, and I've worked in child care at Brooklyn , a nature-immersion forest school in Prospect Park. There, I worked in the preschool class with 2-4-year-olds, focusing on child-led free play, exploration, and small-group settings. During my year abroad in Chile, I also tutored reading and writing for elementary students. I worked with students at different levels and adjusted my lessons to what each child needed. I'm social, fun-loving, and big on the outdoors. I'm a member of all the zoos, and I love learning about animals, playing sports, and getting kids outside. Whether you need a few hours of help or a regular sitter, I'd love to chat!
