Hi! I’m a first-year university student studying psychology, and I absolutely love spending time with kids. I speak English and Urdu. I spent high school gaining experience working with kindergarteners in both regular and special education classrooms, and I’ve also helped out at summer camps with kids aged 6–12. I enjoy helping with activities, routines, and playtime, and I always try to make sure kids feel safe, happy, and engaged. I’m also happy to help with some housework or homework if needed.
I’d describe myself as caring, patient, and responsible, and I’m CPR trained. I’m happy to work with kids of any age that parents feel comfortable with.
Availability: I am available in the summer full time (from April - August).
