Hello! My name is Kate and I am a Senior at Loyola Marymount University (23 years old) studying International Relations. I am from Cedar Rapids, Iowa and moved to LA for college. I am looking for a part-time or as-needed nannying/babysitting job in the Marina Del Rey area or nearby. I have 11 years of experience with nannying/babysitting and truly love it, which is why I am hoping to return to it through SitterCity. I started babysitting when I was 11 years old for multiple families as-needed, then spent two summers in high school nannying full-time for a family of 3 kids. I also have a little sister who is now 13 who I grew up babysitting regularly. I have worked with all ages - from newborn to early high school - and I truly enjoy my time when I nanny. Additionally, I spent 4 summers as a full-time sleep-away Read more summer camp counselor in charge of the 7-year-old girl division, have taught countless swim lessons to many age groups, and have spent lots of hours volunteer-tutoring at an elementary school in my hometown. I have been Lifeguard and CPR certified for 6 years and counting, so safety is indubitably my first priority when taking care of kids. But I will also ensure your children have a fun and memorable experience under my care while serving as a role model who exemplifies respect, integrity, honesty, responsibility, and empathy. I also have a knack for thinking of unique and creative activity ideas thanks to my time as a summer camp counselor. My only time constraint is class on Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 1:40-4:15 pm. If you are looking for a morning or evening nanny, or day nanny on Tuesday/Thursday, I would be a perfect fit for you. I also have a car and a valid drivers license, so can drive your children places if needed. As you might gather , I have a passion for working with children and would be absolutely elated at the chance to take care of the most precious part of your life. I hope you will consider me and I look forward to being in contact with you!
