Hello Friends! This is WAY different than when I babysat as a teenager! Holy Moly! As a parent, I know you are looking for someone you can TRUST with your kids. I assure you - I AM that person! I love kids. I always have. And kids have always gravitated towards me. I started babysitting when I was 9 years old. I turned into the “call first” “neighborhood” babysitter from 6th grade until mid high school when I got a “real” job at Hardee’s. Ha! I worked in a preschool and Children’s Day Out from high school through college. And became an Art Teacher in the Blue Valley School District for 6 years. I had my son in 2006 after many years of fertility treatments. I KNOW just how precious children are. My son is my world! I am very protective of children - whether they are “mine” or not. Read more I have been CPR trained numerous times. I’ve worked extensively with special needs kiddos and even those with behavior disorders. I will interact with your little peanuts, keep them safe and entertained. I am looking to babysit for a couple of reasons: I miss being around little people! And, at the moment, I am looking to make a little money QUICKLY! (Sometimes “life” happens and it throws you for a loop. I’m in the loop right now.) I am looking forward to meeting you and having the chance to care for your little nuggets. 😊 Thanks a bunch for your consideration!
