Hello! My name is Theresa and i’m currently taking a gap year before I pursue a career in dental hygiene. I have always grown up babysitting for friends of my family and it is something I have always loved! Being able to babysit is such a rewarding career and I believe it is the perfect way to spend my gap year!

I like being a sitter because I like getting to know people and I like helping out the parents/family. I babysat kids as young as 2 and as old as 15. I used to babysit my siblings, family friends kids, and other family’s children. I do enjoy spending time with them and playing with them as well as taking care of them. I know how to easily calm kids down, I am patient and am not easily provoked, and I like to help children that struggle open up more and allow themselves to have fun.

I’ve been babysitting since I was young. Last year because of COVID I began looking for a nanny job since I am majoring in education and wanted some hands on experience. I am looking for another job because my previous nanny job working with a female toddler fell through. I love working with kids and this is what I want to do for a living (education) once I graduate college!
