About Francesca

Hi, I'm Frankie! I'm a medical student at Brown, and I've always known I want to work with kids in some capacity. Being around children genuinely makes me happy and is a big part of why I chose medicine. I grew up with a sibling with severe autism, which shaped who I am. It taught me patience, flexibility, and how important it is to meet each child where they are. I'm calm, responsible, and attentive, but also playful and creative. I'm happy helping with homework, bedtime routines, crafts, or outdoor play -- and I always aim to create a safe, supportive environment. I have my own car and can help with pick-ups or activities if needed. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your child with someone, and I take that seriously. I'd describe my personality as warm, responsible, and upbeat One thing families should know about me is that I'm the kind of person kids tend to feel comfortable with pretty quickly.
