  • 19 years paid experience
  • Babysitter in Bolivar, MO 65613

Meet Shannon

  • Comfortable with pets
  • Has a car

I have taken care of children for over 32 years. From babysitting to Professionaly after I received my Degree in Psychology and Criminology at MSU. I was born and raised in Bolivar and know the area very well. I also would substitute teach in the Bolivar School system before going full time for the state. in addition I have over 350 hours in training from the state from training Foster Parents, Trauma training, trained families on different and appropriate ways to teach & discipline children in a positive manner. I believe children keep adults young at heart by experiencing life through their eyes and activities which make everyone happy! I could go on and on but I think by actually meeting a person and get to know them,the child also, is truly the only way for parents to choose an appropriate care giver they can trust a very loved child Read more with. I would love to meet all of you to see if you feel I am the best fit for your child.
