Hello! I'm a 23-year-old mom and a full time senior at Portland State University. I've been babysitting for years and have experience caring for children of all ages, including infants. As a mom, I know how important it is for children to feel safe and cared for, and I treat every child with the same care I'd want for my own. For some babysitting jobs, | may need to bring my little one with me, but only if your family is comfortable with that. I'd love the opportunity to meet your family and care for your loved ones!
