Hello, my name is Lauren and I am a recent graduate from Johns Hopkins University, double majoring in Special and Elementary Education. I received my undergrad degree at Eastern Michigan for the same major as well and was a special education teacher for five years. Recently, I have moved to Alexandria, to work for a non-profit for Educators. I have eight years of experience for babysitting for family and friends of the family. The children's age range from a newborn to fourteen years old. I also work at an Early Child Center at Eastern and have been a lead school-age summer camp teacher. I love spending time with children, it is not a job it is something I enjoy doing! So, I hope you will consider me for the job.

Lauren was a great Baby Sitter!!!! I used her in a Date Night Capacity this summer. She watched my 4 year old and 1 year old. The next day my daughter could not stop asking when Lauren was coming back. Lauren kept my daughter engaged by bringing her own Arts and Crafts activities for my children. As an Active Duty Army single dad I was weary about hiring a baby sitter. Yet for Lauren to be young, she was so grown up about my addressing my concerns. She addressed each of them and I was completely rewarded with a great Care giver! I can only hope on school breaks she comes back to Cleveland! Thank you Lauren!! 5 Stars +++++++
