I began babysitting when I was in my early teens and found that I had a real passion for being a babysitter/Nanny. I love helping families in any way that I can. I love to be with children and watch them grow physically, mentally, and socially. After high school I went on and received my degree in Child and Family Studies because of my passion for being a babysitter/ Nanny. I knew I could make a difference in people's lives and this degree would allow me to do so. I'm 24 years old and in my spare time I love to hang out with my dogs, go running, explore God's wonderful creations, shopping, and watching football. I've been a high school girls golf coach for 2 years now and I love interacting with the girls through a sport that they love. I enjoy being a mentor to these young girls Read more as well. Like I mentioned earlier I started babysitting/ being a nanny when I was in my early teens. I started out babysitting on week nights and weekends and throughout the summer time. Once I was able to drive I became a Nanny to the same family who I started out with. I would transport the children to the Country Club to play golf/swim. I would clean the house dishes, load and unload dishwasher, laundry, and help the children do chores. At the end of high school I decided I needed more experience so I got a job at a local Daycare/Preschool. I worked at the Daycare/Preschool for about 4 years. After two years of working there I was promoted to a Lead Toddler Teacher. After working at the Daycare/Preschool I made the decision to leave to work for my cousin to be her Nanny. I've been a Nanny for my cousin for about 3 years. Qualifications- CPR, First Aid, Bachelors Degree- Child and Family Studies
