Hi! I'm a responsible and fun loving sitter who has nearly 6 years of experience caring for children. I worked on and off in my mom's daycare center since I was in middle school, and I have been babysitting for just as long and worked as an after school club leader last year for Woodcraft Rangers; I love working with kids. I'm an American and Nigerian dual citizen but I spent most of my life in London, before moving to LA 3 years ago because of college! I am creative and energetic and want to create actual meaningful relationships with the parents and children that I work with. I've worked as a caregiver in Madrid and was able to fully immerse myself into Spanish culture while caring for two little girls as a live in Au pair. I'm currently a senior at USC and I'm majoring in Philosophy, Politics and Read more Law with a Minor in Italian. I really enjoy babysitting because I get the privilege of seeing kids grow into well rounded and caring people. I am fully vaccinated! Seeing the children I've look after develop into a well rounded, friendly and caring people is such an amazing thing, especially as I view many of them as little siblings!
