Hi! My name is Sydney :) While I grew up as an only child, my extended family very big. I have four aunts, five uncles, three cousins, two step-siblings, a grandmother, a grandfather, a great-grandmother and a whole lot of family dogs (every household in my family has at least one dog). Growing up, I would often dog sit for my family when they would go on vacation. The dogs would often stay at my house and would stay over night with me. This includes a wide variety of dogs from Maltese, to Jack Russels to Boxers; I have dog sat them all In high school, I would also go help my great-grandmother around her house when ever she was having back or ankle problems. She is 93 and has to use a walker to get around. I would go and just help her get around her house, pull clothes Read more out for her, and make sure she went to sleep with her feet elevated. Over the years our family has grown and now has eight little kids (from the age range of 7- 3 months old) running around. I, being the unmarried college student of the family often spend my time of from college babysitting. I often look after them again on holidays, for date nights, overnight stays and on vacation. I often cook for myself at home, so I am very comfortable around a kitchen. I am a vegetarian and very into the "Buy Local" movement so I can promise you the food will be healthy and nutritious. Also, if you want your child to have meat in their diet, I am still very comfortable cooking it :) I was on my high school swim team and still swim about three times a day in the Summer, so I am very comfortable with being around children by the water I am double major in history and journalism at Flagler College. So, if your child ever needs help with History or English homework I can help
