I've been surrounded by kids my whole life as I come from a very large family. I grew up one of five and was constantly being asked to care for my younger cousins. My mother has always been a caregiver and watches a 3 year old now. I was a a camp leader for a few years at the YMCA for 1st - 3rd graders. I was an after school sitter to 2 boys age 10 + 13. I picked them up from school, prepped snacks, helped with school works and activities. I've been executive assistance to two different families where I was sometimes asked to babysit their kids. Age ranged from 1 to 6 years of age. I also have cared from 8-10 month babies where I helped with feeding, walked to the park, playtime and put down for naps. I also nannied a newborn up to month 5 Read more where I assisted in sleep training, nap time, tummy time, helped feeding, making bottles and testing out solids. My range is wide and I love to help make a family feel at ease. Hopefully I can help yours :)
