Meet Meredith
- Speaks Spanish
- Comfortable with pets
- Has a car
I have been babysitting for 10 years now, and I also watch and walk pets. I am currently a currently just attending school in order to obtain my PhD in Wildlife Biology. I have had experience of watching infants all the way up to pre-teens, and more than 2 at a time. I have a basic understanding of Spanish, I can understand and respond minimally. My philosophy when babysitting is to try and be entertaining enough to keep kids away from the television. Kids need to be outside or using their imagination on their free time! My favorite game to play with kids is hide and seek and I love taking them to the pool. I was once a lifegaurd at Wild Rivers so I have a lot of experience with keeping an eye on kids while they swim, and would be able to keep your kids out of danger. On top Read more of life saving skills, I have also been CPR certified with the Red Cross, and will get it renewed if need be. For those of you with pets; I have had plenty of different types of dogs and would not mind watching any kind of any age. I am an animal lover and would love to watch and walk your pet, while also taking care of your kids! (: My email is meredith.sjostrand@gmail.com
