I absolutely love kids. I babysit for my cousins and family friends all the time. I was CPR, AED, and First Aid certified by The Red Cross but I let the certification expire. I do not have any formal training in babysitting, nor do I have a certification in it, but I have experience in babysitting kids between the ages of 2 weeks old - 15 years old. I am very friendly and patient. I love to color and play games with the kids. I worked at the YMCA Summer Day Camp for a summer while I was in High School. I am currently working security at a local music venue so my weekends and Friday nights are limited. I already have a schedule set weeks in advance but the schedule does vary from week to week, I will let you know availability on a case to case basis.
