I am one of four siblings and have been trusted to babysit my siblings since I was 8 years old. I have experience babysitting friends, neighbors, and family. I have babysat three children at once, but am most comfortable with looking after one or two children. Originally from Cleveland, I studied biomedical engineering and biochemistry and went on to complete my master's in engineering management. After working in Boston for a about a year, I quit my job to begin a biotech startup. I lived in SC for a couple months at the very beginning, but decided to move back to Cleveland to help out family while saving a bit of rent money. I have been living off of my savings since quitting my job in Boston and we are currently approaching investors for our business. For now, however, I am doing what I can to earn some extra money Read more on the side. My two year old nephew has reminded me how fun babysitting can be, so I thought this would be a nice way to make sure I don't use up all of my savings while starting this business and my work allows me to have a flexible schedule. I was the kid that carried around anatomy coloring books and packets of long division problems for fun when I was little, so it's fitting that I also enjoy teaching and tutoring and am willing to help out with homework at the parents' request.
