Lets Understand Why
Hello!
My name is Rajendra. I currently work as Statistician III for the State of South Carolina.
I graduated from UofSC with a masters in Health IT (summa cum laude) during which I was involved in software/app development and data analysis projects. As a graduate research assistant, I mentored undergraduates in their research projects.
For three years during college, I worked as a peer-tutor/student leader where I helped incoming Freshmen with their career planning, mathematics, physics and computer science courses.

I am a recent graduate from the University of South Carolina with degrees in Mathematics and Philosophy with minors in Physics and Linguistics. I have 2 years of experience tutoring for UofSC in math and physics in one-on-one settings. Currently, I am taking a gap year to work on graduate school applications. Math and physics have been a passion of mine since I was in high school and I look forward to sharing that passion with as many people as I can.

Hi! I am a very reliable, patient, and outgoing person with approximately 5 years of experience caring for children, from infants to teenagers. I love being active, doing crafts, baking, and many other activities! I'm willing to do additional other tasks if requested. I am organized & can multitask so I'm happy to help with house management as well! I love kiddos and it is such a treasure to be part of watching them grow! I look forward to connecting!

Hello, everyone! We are in search of an after-school sitter for our 5-year-old boy and 9-year-old girl. We live in downtown Columbia. Hours would be around M-F 2:30p to 5:30p. One parent would usually be home during that hour, and the main task is to keep the younger one engaged. Occasional drop-offs and pick-ups from extra curriculum activities may be needed.
We would like to have someone who can commit to the job for (at least) this semester and be pet-friendly (as we have a friendly small dog and a friendly big cat). While we prefer to have one sitter, we are open to having multiple if you can only work on certain days of the week.
