I have always loved children and have had a special place in my heart for them ever since I was a child. I have babysat our neighbors' children, our family friends' children, I have helped out in the nursery at my church growing up, etc. Plus, I have two little brothers of my own, and have served as their fun big sister, playmate and at times an additional mother if it was ever needed. I also have experience with housekeeping, taking care of pets, taking care of elderly people, and am a bit of a handy-woman at times. I love to make children happy, make them laugh, have fun with them and just love on them and care for them. I am someone who is easy to work with, extremely maternal, and I always try to be as respectful as I can. I consider myself a patient woman; I will Read more never argue, unless I seriously feel like something is wrong. I am a people-pleaser; I love to be as helpful as possible, and I will not be fake or use unnecessary flattery to get my way or win favor with anyone. I love to make everyone happy, and hate disappointing anyone even for the slightest reason, and will humble myself in a heartbeat if I know I have done something wrong or have unintentionally offended someone. I am also a follower of the Christian faith, but I am not someone who judges others or will try and make anyone feel like I am shoving my beliefs in their face. I live to love and to serve, and will respect people's wishes to keep certain things to myself, and will do my best to respect any religions they might have as well. However, if I feel like there is a line being crossed, whether it is through being bullied for my beliefs or being treated unkindly in any way simply out of spite, then I will not stay under that person's service for long. I am an easy person to talk to, and am generally a quick learner. If anyone has questions for me, please do not hesitate to ask. I look forward to helping out other families :) I am still in the process of getting references from families I used to sit for, as it has been quite some time since I've seen them last. If I am unable to get them then I apologize. However, I can have my parent's and grandparent's number ready for anyone who asks. Feel free to contact me if you would like them. I am open to discussing availability options if I am interested in any jobs that are offered to me. Thank you for your interest! Blessings over you all!

Lauren was our babysitter for over a year. She cared for our three children and was exceptional with our youngest child that has special needs. She is able to attend to multiple children. Lauren communicated well with us and was responsive to our needs. We were fortunate to have her with our family and glad to serve as a reference for her future employment. Sincerely, Suzanne
