Hello! I am an energetic and caring babysitter who is passionate about providing child-specific childcare. I love entertaining and engaging children by curating imaginative activities and play-pretend scenarios led by the children's imagination — meanwhile trying to incorporate reading, writing, and problem solving components into activities. I've had 6 years of experience babysitting children ages 6 months to 8 years old and also have extensive experience caring for twins. > > > LONG TERM GOALS: < < < I graduated with a chemistry degree and math minor. I currently work in the biotech research and development field while considering grad school. My hope is to make the best of this year by creating genuine relationships with new families. I'd love to share more about my past and present experiences. Please don't hesitate to message for further questions and sitter references! [Vaxxed, boosted, COVID conscious, and pet-friendly!]
