Hi, I am Hailey Lawrence. I am 18 years old going to school for early childhood education. I enjoy babysitting because I raised my younger siblings and my younger cousins for 8 years of their lives. When I was 14 I started working at busy bee daycare while I would occasionally babysit my foster parents twins. I always enjoyed helping others and just being able to be fun and creative with the kids. I always have planned activities that I get approved to do by the parents.
