Hi! My names Mary, I am a 20 year old graduate who has been babysitting since I was 11. I am a very energetic, happy, and caring caregiver. I have experience with babysitting as well as being a nanny, I can do both. I have one niece and one nephew who I have watched throughout the years, as well as many younger cousins. I am going to community college so I will be available even after summer. I enjoy doing activities with the children as well as taking them places. I can watch the kids either at my house or yours, whichever works better for you. I also have a 3 1/2 nephew that loves to play with other kids if you’re comfortable with him coming with me occasionally or bringing the kids back to my house to play and hang out! I have a pretty flexible schedule, and am always up to help. I do have another nannying job that varies week to week but on days I don’t have them am very happy to help any way I can. I have always loved children and am told I have a special way with them.

Being a sitter can make you feel a sense of fulfillment by providing care and support while building a positive relationship with the children and their families. It’s a job where you can be creative, active, and make a meaningful impact on young lives. Growing up as the oldest coming from a big family you take on a lot of responsibilities and skills like communication, patience, understanding of child development stances, adaptability, problem solving, safety awareness, the availability to stay calm under pressure, and being able to foster a child’s social, emotional, and intellectual growth through engaging activities.
