I've been babysitting since I was 10 years old. Over these 12 years I've been a full time sitter/nanny for three families. With children ranging from newborn to 8 years old. I've also had my cna for the past 4.5 years so I'm well trained in a lot of medical needs and cpr/first aid. I am hoping that college is in the near future for me, but I just haven't been able to decide on a career path. I'm dependable, compassionate, and am also willing to help with housework/ errands. If I sound like a fit for your family let me know! I know that it asks if I am a smoker in the below... I usually go my whole shifts at work (10hrs) without smoking so I wouldn't have a problem refraining from doing that on your time... but I wanted to answer the questions honestly.
