Meet Colleen
- Comfortable with pets
- Has a car
As a middle school child I began working as a mothers helper for a neighbor with two young children. As I continued to get older, my interest in working with children continued. I worked as a summer camp counselor for 6 summers supervising and playing with children between the ages of 6 and 14. I have also spent ample amounts of time babysitting and nannying newborns, infants, and toddlers. I have just completed a 16 week clinical for physical therapy school working in a pediatric setting where I again treated children of all ages. I am 4 months away from achieving my doctorate in physical therapy and would love to babysit or nanny part time while I finish up school and study for my national boards examination. I thoroughly enjoy the time I spend imagining, adventuring, crafting, playing, teaching, and having fun with children.
