Currently, I work full-time at the New Hampshire Public Health Laboratory in Concord. I also just graduated from the University of New Hampshire in Manchester with a Master's in Public Health. I do have a pretty busy schedule but I really love babysitting so a lot of my spare time is spent doing so. I have been babysitting for over 5 years and I have worked with all ages of children. I have a neice (4.5-years-old) and a newphew (18 months) and I have babysit children age 1.5 through the age of 14 (paid experience). I have paid experience with watching 7 children at once (! I know!), twins (girls), and a 14-year old with autism. I also have a cousin with down syndrome whom I have spent a lot of time with (not paid). I am no longer certified in CPR but I have taken the course before and will Read more take it again upon request. I currently babysit (occasionally) for several families on occasion. I love pets- I have 2 cats and a dog. I also have experience with fish, lizards (geckos and anoles), and dwarf hampsters. My favorite thing to do with children is play outside, snow especially! I am a big fan of teaching so if I can help with math, reading, talking in full sentences, or even just throw in a fun-fact here and there, I will be happy to do so. Thanks for your time!
