While I do not have any paid childcare experience, I do have 6 siblings, 4 of them being younger than me. I am a certified EMT as well. I would like to be a NICU/PICU nurse in the future, so I believe babysitting will be as valuable of an experience for me as I hope it is for the families I babysit for.

During my time as a seasonal nanny for two different families, I had the opportunity to care for children between the ages of 2 and 8 from September 2018 to August 2024. As a nanny/sitter, I crafted fun and educational activities that aligned with each child’s interests, helping foster their curiosity and development. I also took great care in preparing meals and snacks, always following nutrition guidelines and food safety protocols. Additionally, I ensured safe transportation to and from summer camps, the town pool, and various extracurricular activities, contributing to a well-rounded and enjoyable experience for the children. I have experience babysitting for children with ADHD and anxiety issues which has taught me how to be patient and also create a more organized environment for certain kids. I have 7 years of experience babysitting and nannying and would love to find a babysitting/nannying job in New Jersey this summer. It is extremely rewarding and fulfilling being a sitter because I get to help families in need and introduce activities to kids so they can have a fun day!
