I am a 25 year old recent college graduate (obtained my Master of Social Work from USC) that grew up with a big family, so I have a lot of experience in watching children. During my college years, I tutored for a family with 2 sons (5&7), babysat for a family with one son (5months), and many times a month I babysat for a family with one son and one daughter (they started out ages 3.5&9months, they are now 7 & 5!-time flys!). I enjoy watching children, and while babysitting I also help with homework, dinner, or wherever else help is needed. Im a friendly, patient, and lovable person and would love to watch your children! =)

Desiree was an amazing sitter for my 3 children. She was very energetic, attentive and most importantly thorough. If I left a task, it was completed without incident. She's very motivated and smart. If she ever moved back to this side of country I would hire her again in a heartbeat,
