I am staying in Amherst, MA this entire summer and am looking to be a full time nanny. I have been babysitting since the age of 14. I have a sister who is now 6 years old, so from the age of 14, I took on a motherly role towards her, which gave me a lot of experience with children. I have babysat several families throughout my life and have nannied before. I am an Early Childhood Education major because I love children and I am excited to help them learn and grow. I am applying on sitter city.com, so that I can broaden my experience and help out wherever I can. I have worked at a day camp for the past two summers with children of all ages. I have also been a dance instructor for kids from ages 6-14. I currently work at a pre school while balancing Read more 24 credits and a member of 4 clubs. I am hard working, passionate, energetic and an extremely responsible person who has had so much experience working with children. I would love to help another family out in any way that I can!
