As the oldest of 3 siblings and more cousins than I can count, I began babysitting at the young age of 12. Since then, I have fallen in love with being around young children. Some of my favorite activities to do while working with children are arts and crafts, reading, dancing, playing outside, and stroller walks. I have over 15 years experience working with all ages from 4 weeks to 18 years old. I have experience working with special needs, multiples, and behavioral issues. I am a certified CNA, have up to date CPR, am fully vaccinated, and have a safe and reliable vehicle. I have worked in a childcare facilities as a preschool assistant teacher, young toddler teacher, and as well as the lead infant teacher. While in college, I spent time as a part time nanny for a few lovely families as well. In 2014, I left childcare Read more and decided what I really wanted to do was work in healthcare. I have continued to babysit off and on throughout the years, but have spent most of my time working in nursing homes and hospitals full time. Recently I have returned back to school to further my education to become a Registered Nurse. I miss working with children and plan to work in pediatrics when I graduate. Currently I am looking for a few babysitting jobs while I am in school. Please let me know if I can be of any assistance to you and your family!
