I am 20 years old and have been babysitting kids since I was 13. I have experience with kids from 2 weeks old to 13 years old. I also have experience with kids with special needs. I watched a boy with Down syndrome for about 3 years. I am a certified nursing assistant, have my CPR certificate, and basic life support certificate. I have experience with many types of pets of various size and species type as well. I worked at the child care center at Vanguard church for roughly 3 years and worked mainly in the newborn and infant area, so I am very experienced with new babies. I am available to be a nanny or to just babysit when needed. I am also able to take kids to their activities and to school if needed. I know that times are hard and I am more than willing to Read more help out some families in need.
