I am the second of six kids, so taking care of kids has been in my blood from very young! I am Red-Cross certified in first-aid, CPR, and lifeguarding, having worked as a Lifeguard for over 5 years. During undergrad, I nannied for a family with 3 boys under the age of 4 which was incredibly rewarding! I graduated from Grand Valley in December with an HR degree, and am looking to babysit in evenings and weekends to supplement my income. I am experienced with special needs, multiples, newborns, and love animals. Contact me and I would love to talk to you!
