Hi! I have been babysitting since my senior year of high school and throughout college as well. I got into babysitting after volunteering in the special education program at my high school my senior year. I have always loved the interactions and watching the growth of the kids I have cared for. I have also worked at a daycare and cared for 10 toddlers at a time with the help of 2 other coworkers! I have 2 nieces I babysit occasionally as well. I would love to help a family find reliable childcare! I have a very bubbly personality and have yet to care for a child that did not enjoy the time we interacted! :) I am very reliable, can do light chores, make meals, not afraid to change a blowout lol, will have dance parties and do karaoke, and be the first call you can make when life happens and you need childcare last minute! I look forwarding to meeting you and caring for your babies like they’re my own!
