I have been babysitting for 13 years, camp counseling for 6 summers and working as an after school teacher for 4 years. Roles include Site Director at YMCA, assistant camp director, and lead after school teacher. When I babysit, I like to play with toys and games, play sports outside, and do fun projects. I have scootered with kids to the park, built Lincoln log and train cities, and made Gak and popsicle stick airplanes. I usually talk to kids about getting up when they fall down, trying their best, and being responsible for their actions. I A little about me: Last year, I went to Kenya where I volunteered at an orphanage for 6 months. I like to read and learn about the world. I like city planning, basketball, and ping pong. Hope to hear from you soon!

Jeremy is nothing short of amazing. He is incredibly communicative, professional, and responsible. He has a true gift with children. He doesn't watch your kids. . he plays with them creatively for hours. He intuitively knows how to bring out the best in every child.

Jeremy was amazing with our son! He introduced himself to him and truly catered to his needs. From the being, he was punctual and kept us in the loop by responding quickly to our texts/concerns. Our son spoke positively about him the next morning stating how much fun he had with Jeremy. I promise that the next time we’re in the area in need of a sitter he will be the first person I reach out too. Thank you Jeremy for coming to our rescue.

Jeremy was absolutely amazing with my boys! He is the first babysitter that I've ever left my kids with, and I couldn't be more happy with the job he did. My 4 year old is already asking for him to play with them again! I just can't get over how excellent he was with my boys, and I will definitely call him again when I need a sitter!

My son usually takes a moment to warm up to people that he isn't familiar with, but he immediately took to Jeremy and hasn't stopped raving about the fun times he had with him! Jeremy is very professional and makes both the child and parent feel safe and at ease right out of the shoot. I can't imagine having another sitter for my little man. I would recommend him to any family, he's wonderful!
