Hello, I have 5 years experience babysitting and 3 years experience as a nanny. The max amount of children I have supervised at a time is 5. I have twin and triplet experience, along with autistic and down syndrome experience. I have 2 years early childhood education and 2 years advanced food preparation. I am in college working towards my teaching degree, while also studying ASL. I often like to bring arts and crafts with me, or bake with the children and do outdoor activities when the weather permits. I have a 4 door Jeep wrangler that can fit up to 3 car seats in the back at a time. I do daily household chores and run errands on occasion for families. I have experience with plenty of fur babies. I tend to communicate with parents throughout the hours of babysitting, informing them of what the children and I have Read more done. I am available for contact 24/7 and I'm available for short notice care. Please contact me with any questions. Thank you for your time and consideration.
