I’m about to graduate with my master’s in clinical mental health counseling specializing in working with children and teens! I have been babysitting for around 10 years and have experience with all ages! I have also worked as a camp counselor and have volunteered at a weeklong sleep away camp for kids with physical disabilities for the past 7 years! I truly enjoy spending time with kids and engaging them in fun activities! I am very active, so I love to get up and moving, and I enjoy coming up with creative activities that meet the needs of each child I’m babysitting!
