Meet Forreste

  • Comfortable with pets
  • Has a car

I have been caring for children off and on for several years. For the last few years I have been working in schools tutoring children, grades kindergarten and up, in both reading and writing. During high school I cared for 6 month year old twins and nannied for a family of four during summers. In addition, I have taken care of a family of six, driving 4 of the children to sailing practice, keeping an eye on children in the pool, and completing household errands and chores. For the past five years I have been the NUMBER ONE babysitter for a five year old, my much younger sister. Needless to say, my mother thinks I do a terrific job. :)
