A little bit about me… I've been babysitting since i was a child. I use to be a daycare teacher and helped my mom in her home daycare. I have worked in 3 different daycares as a preschool teacher. One was an at home daycare. I now have a 6-year old. She comes with me all the time and is a great help and loves meeting new children. It makes it easier, as I homeschool her. I have plenty of references that I can furnish. Different from the ones, already in here. I also study Health and Nutrition and we are Vegan. Thank you. Look forward to connecting with great families!

Hello, I am a high school senior interested in finding some babysitting jobs. I am currently in the process of becoming a certified EMT. I am still in school so my hours are limited to nights and weekends, and I must know the dates and times ahead of time because of my primary job. I am the perfect choice if you need a date night sitter! I am calm and caring and great with children and I hope you choose me as your sitter!
