As a former substitute teacher, I like to apply Montessori methods of learning to childcare. This means I always aim to communicate clearly, with patience and kindness. I am a freelance writer and I currently work at a bookstore. In the fall, I will start my MFA in creative writing. I like working with kids because I find that I always learn from them as much as they learn from me. Having worked as a substitute teacher, an au pair, summer camp counsellor, and babysitter, I believe that it comes naturally to me to take care of children. I'm looking for a job that is stress free, and reliable where I can support kids and families in every day activities. My skills include support with reading and writing skills, teaching kids to cook and bake, and establishing strong bed time routines. I believe I am a friendly and warm presence. I can't wait to meet you!
Sophie is definitely the best sitter we ever had! She is kind, playful, responsible, reliable and extremely good with kids. Sophie always made sure that my daughter is not bored. Playing games, doing art projects, taking her to the playground and doing all the fun stuff you would hope for your child to do while being with a sitter. She has a very gentle personality and is just a good human being that will take the best care of your child!
