About Victoria
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Hello! I am a recent graduate of the George Washington University School of Medicine and I am an emergency medicine resident physician. I also am a current member of a local volunteer fire department where I regularly respond to 9-1-1 emergencies as an Emergency Medical Technician. I consider myself a kid at heart and love working with children of all ages! I have provided child care intermittently over the past 10 years for children ranging from newborn to 13 years of age. My experience has included infant care (feeding, changing, etc.), planning activities for young children, preparing meals, and running light household errands. I am a strong proponent of children having activities away from computers, TV, and cell phones, so I enjoy introducing the children I care for to various games and activities to keep them engaged and having fun. I am also a lifelong pet owner and am comfortable being around and helping out with household pets as needed.

Victoria is kind and loving. My little ones love her! She is super smart - she is a resident doctor. She plays games with the kids, including board games, cards, and puzzles. She likes to engage them in activities so they aren't watching tv all night. Victoria is beloved by the kids. Victoria is my first choice when she is available. She is also good with my Golden Retriever who is a little hyper but will listen to Victoria. Victoria is good with bundling the kids up and taking them out for a walk or to play with them in my yard.
