Thank you for considering me to watch your kiddos! I am 23 years old with a bachelor's degree in Biology and another in Psychology. Through middle school and high school babysitting was my frequent job. Before college I nannied 3 children for the summer. They were two boys aged 11 and 8 and a 4-year-old girl. We did activities like the waterpark, zoo, beaches, and parks every month. We also kept up with their school skills by reading daily and completing workbooks. Fun times indoors range anywhere from building a fort on a rainy day to making play dough and slime. Last summer after graduation I decided to spend it with my nephews. My nephews are two boys, ages 6 and 1 1/2. We also made sure to stick to their schedule, it helps keep the day rolling smoothly. I grew up with a wonderful nanny who I have great Read more memories with. It makes me happy knowing I can be that person for other kids. I also have experience as a professional tutor with children from 4 years old to college students.
