I have a deep passion for working with children and creating nurturing, safe environments. With extensive experience teaching music, yoga, and social-emotional learning, I've enjoyed guiding kids in their development and well-being. I also have experience in infant care and am dedicated to meeting the unique needs of little ones. As I'm currently going back to school to become a couples and family therapist, building trusting, supportive relationships is at the heart of everything I do. I look forward to bringing warmth, safety, and care to your family. Interested in music lessons for you and/or your little ones? I teach group and private early childhood music for ages 0-7 and their caregivers! Classes focus on building fine and gross motor skills, language acquisition, and self-regulation skills. I also teach private lessons for all ages in voice (all styles, all experience levels), ukulele, songwriting, beginning guitar, and beginning piano. Will travel to you!

Sophie is an outstanding caregiver who was a huge help to our family. She can easily work with children of all ages, and her skills and tailored care made such a positive impact in our lives. When my daughter was a newborn, Sophie was incredibly supportive, singing to her, comforting her, and reading and playing with her. Whenever I went out, I had complete trust that Sophie would take excellent care of our children—they always got their naps, healthy meals, and had fun activities to keep them engaged. She even did yoga with my son and his friends, incorporating interactive ways to help him learn and grow. I can’t recommend Sophie enough—she is professional, nurturing, and truly cares about the children she looks after.
