About Hope

I'm a returned Peace Corps volunteer and a brand new resident in DC! I have 5 years of experience caring for children and families and see the role of a babysitter as much more than just watching the kids while parents are away. With a background in social work, I have a deep understanding of socio-emotional learning and support. I am intentional about building appropriate relationships with kids and families. I am quick to help with any errands or responsibilities/tasks needing to be done, take initiative cleaning up around the house, and find joy helping kids/teens think outside the box, explore new ideas about music, art, and culture, and facilitate a fun/encouraging environment.
