Hi! Iβm a college student whoβs currently pursuing a degree in Neuropsychology. Iβm home for the summer to spend time with my 3 younger sisters! I love children and Iβve been babysitting since I was 10 years old. When it comes to kids I believe in a fun loving approach but Iβm not afraid to lay down rules and uphold boundaries. I come from a waldorf education so I know just about every craft there is and I love exploring new activities. Iβm huge on nature and outside time! I played soccer and basketball so rough and tumble play is not a problem for me. Iβm a good cook and iβm big on healthy eating. I have experience with ages 0-17 including bottle feeding and sleep training. I have no age preference, I find each age to be rewarding in its own way (: I look forward to sharing and learning from the kids I work with!
