Lia V.

I love working with kids and creating spaces where they feel safe, seen, and celebrated. As a tutor and mentor, Ive helped students build confidence through belonging-centered learning, and I bring that same patience, joy, and care into my work as a sitter.

Through Teach for America, Ive supported students from diverse backgrounds by tailoring learning and care to their individual needs. I also bring a public health lens to caregiving, rooted in my own experience advancing health equity as a Pfizer Breakthrough Fellow and incoming MBA Candidate at the University of Chicago Booth School of Business.

Im trained in inclusive, trauma-informed practices and skilled at helping kids feel empoweredwhether its through academics, play, or navigating emotions. Im dependable, compassionate, and committed to fostering a supportive and joyful environment for every child.

Additional services: Meal preparation, Laundry, Light housekeeping, Swimming supervision, Crafts, and Travel with family.
