I've been babysitting and watching children for over 10 years! All through high school, I had multiple families that I would regularly work for on weeknights and weekends. When I would return home from college (summer and winter breaks), I was a full-time (40+hrs/week) for two families and absolutely adored being a "part of the family". Unfortunately, I have since moved away from home and am looking to find similar families in the Washington, DC area. I have cared for infants through teenagers...every age has its perks! Although I am a responsible adult, I am still a kid at heart and have no problem playing along with any game or activity. In fact, I'd prefer to be creative and make something rather than sit and watch tv all night. Coloring, dance parties, board games - you name it! I want kids to have fun when they are with me and Read more not miss mom and dad. I have been certified in CPR but unfortunately, my certification has recently lapsed. I do have a full time job so I am only looking for a few weekends or weeknights a month. I'd love to connect with a few families and become their reliable sitter.
