My brief description would be I’m a fun-loving babysitter. I simply enjoy spending time with children. I pride myself on being able to play and act goofy with the kids, yet still have them listen and respect me. I love taking children to interactive and fun activities such as the park, zoo, etc. I have over 8 years of experience of babysitting with various age groups ranging from infant to middle school.

Hi, I’m cassi. Thank you for taking the time out to review my profile. I’m the second oldest out of 5 kids. I have been babysitting my 3 younger brothers since I was 12. I’m 24 now and still babysit them bc one of them is handicapped and another one has mild autism. I stay at home to help my family bc my mom has a rare condition and can’t do as much as she use to. I clean around the house, do laundry, take our dog on her daily walk/run, do homeschool with my brothers when needed to, I go to doctor/ therapy appointments for my brothers, etc. I can babysit any age group including kids with special needs. I have always loved being around and caring for children. I love seeing their face light up with joy over some of the smallest things. i enjoy seeing them learn something new everyday. I love playing hide and seek, board games, hiking, nature photography, baking, arts and craft(even though I’m not good at it, it’s still always fun), reading books to little kids, playing outside, etc. I’m compassionate, kind, patient and full of energy. I’ll be shy at first but as you get to know me you’ll see a whole different side( good though, I promise ). I’m going to be honest though and say I don’t drive as of right now because I have driving anxiety but I do have a ride to be able to get to your place. I know that a lot of families require your own transportation which is why I’m letting you know in advance. If this is alright then that’s good. i used to have a certification for cpr but not anymore since it expired. but i still know everything that has to been done in any case of emergency

I’m a reliable and caring babysitter with a strong background working with elementary-aged children. Growing up with a mother who is a teacher, I’ve always been around kids and understand the importance of creating a fun, supportive, and engaging environment. While I’m newer to professional childcare, I have hands-on experience working with children in both counseling and school settings, as well as babysitting for family members. I love planning creative activities, helping with schoolwork, and keeping kids active and entertained in a positive way. I am CPR and First Aid certified, have my own reliable transportation, and am happy to assist with household tasks or anything else that helps make your family’s routine run smoothly. I strive to create a safe, nurturing, and enjoyable experience for both children and parents!
