Hi! I'm a 29 year old woman, recently married, with no kids but 2 very sweet cats. While I have a normal day job as a marketing strategist, I'm looking to pick up some work as a babysitter on nights and weekends as my husband and I continue to save up for a down payment on our first home together. I grew up babysitting for my two younger brothers, and I often take care of my nieces (4 and 5) for anywhere from a few hours to an entire weekend. During all 4 summers in college, I was also a camp counselor at the Hathaway Brown Broad Horizons girls' summer camp in Shaker Heights, Ohio (I've been counselor to groups as young as preschool and as old as seventh grade). I'm really good at having fun with kids while keeping things fair, and enjoy doing active things outside as well Read more as "quieter" activities like movies or arts and crafts. My hobbies include painting, running, reading, and sports (especially ultimate frisbee!) and I'm happy to teach those activities to the kids I watch. I adore animals, and am happy to provide pet care as well.
