Hello Parents/Caregivers! I would love to be of assistance to those who are in need of a break! If you have errands to run, an evening or weekend event to attend, or would just like some time away for yourself - I am available for part-time assistance. I have a B.A. in Psychology and am passionate about child advocacy and child psychology. I am great with children and have worked with children professionally (17 months to 17 years old) for almost 3 years at Marcus Autism Center (Children's Healthcare of Atlanta) as a Behavioral Therapist. I am trained in Applied Behavior Analysis, which uses what is known about behavior to bring about positive change. Previously, I was a full-time nanny to a 12 month and 15 month old - which I loved. I also have general babysitting experience with children ranging in age from 4 months to 12 years old. I currently work Read more full-time managing events at a law firm. I am very vivacious, dramatic, and I love to sing and dance. I am not only fun-loving, but I am very responsible. Your child's safety and well-being will always be my top priority. I can be adaptable to your specific caregiving needs. I am very fun and relaxed, but am also assertive when necessary. I can be a very dependable and trustworthy addition to your child's life. And I am an excellent proofreader (an extra bonus)! Hopefully, this proves to be a good match for you and your child(ren). Warm Regards, Michelle P.S. I can provide references from families I have worked with.

We have had the pleasure of using Michelle's babysitting services a number of times in the past year. She is always easy to get in touch with when setting up a babysitting appointment, arrives on time with a smile on her face, and genuinely seems to enjoy spending time with our daughter. Our daughter, in turn, loves having her here to babysit and they always have fun together! We highly recommend Michelle :)
