Write a messageHello! My name is Arro. An encouraging, enthusiastic, and empathetic caregiver, I have over seven years of experience caring for children. I have worked as a babysitter, a classroom aide for students with IEPs, and an instructor at day camps, after school programs, and schools. I love cultivating the interests of children, listening attentively to their thoughts, and coming up with activities and games that incorporate what they care about. I especially love coming up with art or STEM activities that promote observation, curiosity, and fun! I place high value on play and silliness and love playing pretend or reading stories. When behavioral challenges arise, I tend towards approaching them gently and empathetically. Drawing on research about emotional regulation, I help kids to understand the emotional roots of their upset, teaching them to articulate their feelings and needs. From there, I offer coping mechanisms and age appropriate regulative processes. I also believe in the importance of holding a firm boundary. Good caregiving offers the structure and containment that children need to feel a sense of freedom and safety. When Im not caregiving, I read, write poetry (I just got my MFA in poetry), farm, hike, and teach a cooking class to middle schoolers. I’m good at making kids feel quickly comfortable with me— As a camp instructor, I worked with many kids who started the day crying about leaving their parents and ended the day excited to return to camp again! I look forward to getting to meet your child.
