Hi, I'm Ashley! I have always been passionate about helping children.I have experience working with children in a variety of settings and of ages. I have been babysitting since high school and have spent a few of my summers as a camp counselor. After graduating college, I spent two years working as a behavior therapist with children on the autism spectrum to aid in their development. Last September, I gained a different perspective of raising children. I had my son, Jax. He was born with a cleft lip and palate. I understand all of the stress, work, and love that goes into raising a child. I am CPR certified, have my own car and willing to provide reliable transportation to and from activities. During the covid 19 pandemic, I am taking as many procausions that I can. I practice social distancing whenever possible by getting groceries delivered, limiting family and Read more friends I see, and wearing a mask in public that covers my nose and mouth.I am more than happy to wear a mask in your home. I want to keep my family and yours safe! Currently, I am a stay at home mom with unique availability. I am looking for someone who is willing to work with my schedule (listed in sittercity) for a part-time position. I am also available for weekend date nights. Thank you for your consideration and best of luck on your search!
