Hello, my name is Courtney and I am a upbeat and responsible babysitter. I have ten years of experience, and I am currently finishing a graduate degree in dance/movement therapy and counseling. I hope to find a warm and caring family to work for. I have watched children ranging in age from 3 months to 9 years old, with as many as 3 children at a time. When working for a family I encourage creativity in play and learning, as children amaze me with their ability to expand and grow. As far as activities, I love to take kids to the park or the library if the family is comfortable with outtings. I also love to share my love of reading books with children. It can be really fun to bake and cook with the kids too. Going places like museums every once in a while can be great as Read more well. I'm up for whatever the family prefers. I have also worked as a park supervisor, camp counselor and dance therapist with children ranging in age from 5 to 17 years old, so I am really comfortable with a wide range of ages and settings. My most recent, consistent, long-term babysitting job was part-time with a family for two years. My time with them ended when they relocated to another city. I started working with them when their daughter was 6 months old and their son was 3-years old. It was wonderful to build a relationship with their family and watch their children grow. I'm looking to find another family that I can work with and have a similar experience.
