Meet Gillian

  • Comfortable with pets

I have been babysitting for the past almost 8 years now. It started with the three little girls across the street three times a week for two hours a day, when I was 12 years old. Now I have been a full time nanny every summer since. Most recently I watched two little boys, aged 4 and 6, from 7am-6pm Monday-Friday. Since coming to college I am looking to pick up babysitting jobs to help pay for tuition, possibly my sorority, and bills that I have. My class schedule is a little spread out. My available days are as follows: Monday: 11am-2pm and then anytime after 5pm. Tuesday: I only have one class from 12-2 so I am free at any other time of the day. Wednesday: 11am-4pm with a class starting at 5pm Thursday: 2pm-on into the night. Friday: I work another job on campus, so I am free Read more after 5 pm. I have worked as an art teacher at a small studio in my home town, I have helped run birthday parties for families that I have babysat for in the past & I love being around kids. I am also relatively easy to call on last minute however this wouldn't be my first choice of finding a job. I am looking to find a part time nanny job that can fit both mine and your schedule to our liking.
