I’m from Boca and recently moved here for college, currently in my second semester of my first year. I’ve always loved working with kids and have plenty of experience, including a previous job where I cared for and engaged with children regularly. I’m responsible, energetic, and enjoy keeping kids active and entertained. Outside of babysitting, I love going to the gym and staying active, which helps me bring energy and creativity to activities with kids. I’m patient, reliable, and genuinely enjoy creating a fun and safe environment for children.
