Hello! I am a college freshman at Aurora University and am looking to find a family to nanny for during my summer break! I have been babysitting since I was 12 and have cared for several families within my town! My first job was caring for 2 elementary children, and the little girl did have diabetes so I am well educated and took a course on this. I have babysat for up to 4 kids at a time, and have babysat from newborns to preteens within the same family. My last job was caring for 3 children, and the toddler had Down syndrome so I was present for physical therapy and all of his day to day needs. My sister is autistic so I am well diversed with disabilities. I took a babysitting course through sandwich hospital at 14 and am CPR certified in every age category. I have my Read more CNA license that I obtained my senior year of high school through Indian Valley Vocational Center. I also worked at Willowcrest Nursing Home for 9 months after completing my CNA training there, and had to leave because of school. I have provided care from the start of life to the end of it, and am clearly very well educated in almost all areas. I would be able to provide care inside your home, or if needed, occasional care at my home. I do have 2 cats and am comfortable with pets. I am able to help with daily chores within your home! Please review my profile and give me the opportunity to love and build a bond with your family and children!
