My name is Jo West and I am a former Early Childhood Educator and Educational Consultant. I started babysitting again in 2014, after returning home from the classroom. As an educator, I've had several trainings on how to work with kids and keep them safe. I am certified by the state of Texas in Early Childhood and grades PreK-6th. I spend most of my time bike riding, walking, cooking, and visiting my teenager in New Hampshire. I am from a large family (10 children), so loving children and watching them enjoy life, is just a part of me. This is what makes me good at my job of being a babysitter! Growing up with a lot of caring sisters and brothers, made me love taking care of other children. I truly just enjoy hearing kids laugh and play and do silly things! I am registered to complete CPR training in Read more August.
