Hi! I'm Sienna, a responsible, energetic, and compassionate college student at George Mason University studying Conflict Analysis & Resolution in the Honors College. I've spent years working with children in a variety of settings and genuinely love creating fun, safe, and engaging environments where kids can thrive. For the past six summers, I've served as a camp counselor at Serve Camp, supervising groups of 20+ children ages 8–14, leading activities, resolving conflicts, coordinating schedules, and ensuring every child felt included and supported. I've also volunteered as a counselor for Vacation Bible School and worked extensively with children through community service programs and youth organizations. In addition to my childcare experience, I've spent over a decade coaching and volunteering with youth gymnastics programs, helping young athletes build confidence, discipline, and teamwork skills. My leadership experience includes mentoring younger students, organizing community outreach projects, and earning the Gold President's Volunteer Service Award for my commitment to serving others. Parents describe me as patient, dependable, creative, and attentive. Whether we're building blanket forts, helping with homework, baking cookies, playing outside, reading stories, or tackling bedtime routines, I strive to make every child feel valued, safe, and cared for. I have reliable transportation, a flexible schedule, and experience caring for children of various ages and personalities. I'd love the opportunity to support your family and provide a positive, trustworthy presence in your child's life!

Hi! My name is Sophie, and I’m a current graduate student at James Madison University pursuing my Master’s in Psychological Sciences with a concentration in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA). I just moved from Cincinnati, OH to Harrisonburg, VA, so I am new to the area! I recently graduated from the University of Dayton in Ohio with my bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Education and Special Education. I have several years of experience working with children of a variety of ages and abilities in home, school, childcare, and clinical settings. I am a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) and have over two and a half years of experience providing one-on-one support to children and adolescents with autism and other developmental disabilities. I also have extensive classroom experience through my education degree, including a full year of student teaching, as well as experience working in an infant childcare center and tutoring elementary-aged children. I especially enjoy creating a fun, safe, and supportive environment where children feel comfortable being themselves. I’m happy to help with playtime, crafts and activities, homework, meals, bedtime routines, and other everyday needs. My background in education and behavior analysis has also given me experience supporting children with communication, behavioral, developmental, and learning needs. I’m responsible, patient, dependable, and genuinely love working with children. I would love the opportunity to get to know your family and provide care that helps both children and parents feel comfortable and supported!
