Hi, my name is Courtney! I am a recent college graduate. I have been babysitting since I was in 7th grade, and I have experience with children as young as 2. In addition to babysitting/nannying, I have worked with children of many ages as a camp counselor for four years. I work most intimately with ages 14-18, though I have experience with younger campers as well. As a counselor, I have been faced with many challenges and situations that require flexibility and innovation, and I have handled them successfully. Through these experiences, I have learned how to interact and communicate with children effectively. Additionally, through my counseling job, I have become CPR certified. I am an actor, so I am playful at heart with a wild imagination, which makes relating to children easy for me. I am loads of fun but am able to discipline when necessary. When I am Read more called on to discipline a child, I do so with the utmost respect, thus gaining the child's trust and retaining their respect for me as an authority figure. I believe respect is a two-way street. When a child feels that they are being listened to, understood, and not patronized, they respond positively to and view authority in a more positive light.
