Hi, I am currently a Junior Nursing student studying at the University of Texas at Austin. I am CPR certified and have had experience working with special needs kids. I have been babysitting since I was 14, so I have some experience with children. I have taken care of newborns, toddlers, as well as some adolescents. I absolutely adore children and hope to be a pediatric nurse one day. While babysitting, I am pretty much open to doing whatever the children have in mind. I love playing outdoors with them or playing board games, etc. I always clean up after myself and any messes made while babysitting. I am open to cooking meals if necessary. Cooking is a passion of mine so I would not mind this at all. Feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns you may have.
