I would describe myself as a mature, responsible/reliable, easy going, health conscious, empathetic, attentive, and fun babysitter. I am a certified Yoga Instructor (Previously taught Mommy and Baby yoga & Yoga for Children/Teens), and I am a Reiki Master (Energy Healer) and earned my Bachelors of Science in Public Health & Community-Based Health Education (San Francisco State University 2009). I value education and am happy to help with homework. Being the oldest sibling, I was very independent and carried a heavy load of responsibilities, as such I began babysitting at age 12 and have continued into adulthood. Currently, I babysit occasionally for friends/former coworkers of mine, and a few families that hired me through the SitterCity.com website, all of whom would be happy to provide references. I have cared for children of all ages from newborn infants, to toddlers, up through elementary aged and teenagers. I've changed my fair share Read more of diapers, burped/rubbed the bellies of gassy bloated babies, rocked them to sleep, perfected the art of bottle warming/feeding, assisted with potty training/bathing/dressing/etc., and have soothed teething aches and pains. I am able to appropriately engage in safe, fun, creative activities, such as arts and crafts, sports, and various games. Overall, I am a fun, energetic, creative, and understanding person who is naturally maternal and nurturing. In addition to babysitting I am happy to help out with cooking, cleaning, laundry, errands, pet sitting, etc. Anything I can do to make you happy and make the children happy, makes me happy!
