I am recent grad from Providence College looking for a babysitting/nannying job. I have two younger sisters who I have looked after since I was 12 years old. In addition I have babysat for numerous families since the age of 13, beginning with a job as a mother's helper.  When I am babysitting for a family, the safety of the children is my number one priority. Children always enjoy my company, as I am a very active babysitter. I keep kids occupied with plenty of physical and mental activities. I played three sports in high school, so you don’t need to worry about me keeping up with the kids! I love taking the children on walks, bike rides, to the pool/beach, and playing outdoor games. I also love reading and doing art projects. I was also a peer tutor in college, so I can help your kids with their homeworl. Read more Not only am I passionate about childcare, but babysitting comes naturally to me. I am always nurturing and kind towards children and believe the key to being an authority figure is establishing mutual respect, and I work hard to do so. I will always do my best to satisfy your needs and requests while being attentive and patient with the children.  When I am babysitting, you can feel at ease about your children’s well-being and be assured that they are having a great time! Additional Facts about Me: -In High School:I was in the National Honors Society, I played basketball, volleyball, and softball, I volunteered at Eastbury Elementary School, I was a CCD teacher for St. Dunstan's Church -In College: I revieved Summa Cum Laude honors as a graduate, I had two jobs in college (one working in the Theater Dept. sewing costumes and organizing items; the second was a Social Research Assistant to my former professor, in which I tutored students, graded papers, and helped with research projects) -I love working with kids of all ages -I have my own car (a safe, 4-wheel drive Audi) and experience driving children to various lessons and activities

Kids loved her. Even asked if I could leave again for a few hours so that they could play with her longer. Everyone was engaged in fun outside play when I returned home, not in front of the TV. Best part though, my house was just as clean as when I left it. No dishes in the sink, no toys strewn across the entire house, no messes for me to clean up. Only Mary Poppins could have done better.
