Hi! My name is Lawson. I am a recent UNCA graduate currently studying for the GRE and hoping to attend Graduate School next year. I got a bachelors degree in Psychology and focused on development and special needs in school. As a student, I worked as part of the Disability Cultural Center and had the opportunity to meet many wonderful families. Some of whom I still work with today. Currently I provide ABA therapy for individuals in Asheville with Autism. I am completely comfortable working with children who have special needs and those who may require more advanced care. I have been babysitting since I was in high school, a little over 7 years now. I am CPR/first-aid certified, comfortable with transportation (with a clean driving record!) and very flexible on weekends. I have experience with newborns and large groups of children. In high school I worked as a child Read more care attendant at a women's gym and routinely kept groups of 5+ children. I am looking for a way to make extra money as I study and prepare for the next chapter in my education. I love children and find each babysitting experience to be unique and rewarding!
