I have been babysitting since I was 12 years old. I started out taking care of my sisters and cousins, and then began babysitting friend's children. I taught Sunday School for 6 years in addition to being a camp counselor for kids ages preschool to 12th grade. I've also housesat for a few families and took care of cats and dogs. I'm currently a graduate student at Lesley University getting a degree in mental health counseling. I've taken several classes on developmental psychology and childhood psychology. I love taking care of children! My favorite things to do with children are; play the ukulele and sing disney songs, bake cookies, play at the park, explore nature, have disney dance parties.
