I am a graduate student, looking for full-time summer employment. By profession, I am a social worker earning my Masters in School Social Work. I have listed some experience on my profile, but I'm not sure what's visible to you. So, long story short, I babysat for 2 large families throughout high school and college, and for the past 3 summers I have babysat (full-time) for one great family with two (very busy) middle school aged kids. I am 25, and I have certifications in first aid, CPR, and various crisis/behavior certifications. I'm very extroverted and outgoing, but I pride myself on being able to build relationship with anyone, even the most introverted children. With all my counseling experience and my passion for fun, I find that babysitting and nannying is a great summer job for me as I finish grad school. I am praying you find the ideal candidate, Read more even if it's not me. ;-)
