I am a college student looking to babysit children of any age. Besides classes, I have a fair amount of free time. I love children and have been babysitting, teaching, and helping them for many years. I babysit for infants all the way up to teenagers. I spent last summer nannying for a 9 year old and also babysat here and there for a few different families. I am used to babysitting for twins and many kids at once. I love teaching kids new things and spending time playing with them and attending to their every need. Kids are what make me happy. I volunteer for church by leading bible camps and teaching Sunday School. I spent two summers volunteering for a special needs camp. I taught little kids at my dance studio from ages 3 all the way to 6, so I have a wide range of experience. I Read more do not have a car and would have to use public transportation or if it is beyond the hours of public transportation you may need to pick me up/drop me off. I am an organized, loving, caring, and kind-hearted person and I love to have fun with kids by making crafts, watching movies, playing outside, putting on shows, dancing, or just being silly.
