Intro
Hi, I'm Sofia, a 20-year-old from Sweden with a strong background in gymnastics and childcare. I did gymnastics for 14 years and have continued as a coach because I love gymnastics and working with children.
I enjoy outdoor activities, crafts, games, and spending time in nature. This winter, Im staying in Chamonix to enjoy the ski season and would love to continue working with kids while Im there.
Besides childcare, I've also worked in a grocery store and at events through a catering company where I served and helped prepare food, which has given me experience in responsibility and teamwork.

Experience History
I have extensive experience caring for children of various ages. I have regularly babysat two children at a time since I was 15, starting when they were 3 and 5 years old.
In my work at the school and preschool, I have cared for larger groups of children ranging from 1 to 10 years old. These roles required managing multiple children at once, while ensuring their safety, engagement, and wellbeing.
Additionally, through my 8 years as a gymnastics coach — including 4 years as a head coach — I was responsible for training groups of up to 15–20 children aged 6 to 16. This has further strengthened my ability to care for and lead children of various ages in both structured and unstructured environments.
