Hello, my name is Dawn. I am 54 years young, married & a homemaker. I have a successful, 22 year old son & a massive 90 lb furbaby. I am currently babysitting an adorable 2 year old little boy, on an occassional basis. I was also babysitting a 1 year old little girl & her 3 year old brother this past fall & winter until the parents could find a suitable daycare. Previous to these positions, I was babysitting two little girls. It started with just one beautiful & intelligent 2-1/2 year old, followed two years later by her gorgeous baby sister. I was honored to be the only one their parents would leave them alone with other than family. I love all my kids, and they love me. It always amazes me how little it takes to put a little joy in a child's day. I can provide that, Read more as well as so much more. Every smile a child gives me puts joy in MY day. That is why I do this. The intelligence and creativity of my charges, whether boys or girls, never fails to fascinate me. I can relate to both. Drawing, coloring, building blocks, reading, sporting activities, beauty parlor, or any pretend game are all meant to have fun, teach and inspire creativity. I took a baby care class at Bronson which included choking, bed, house & car safety. I am CPR & First Aid certified. I am loving, caring, reliable, patient, honest & trustworthy. I will follow your every instruction to the letter. I will help you in any way I can if the opportunity arises or your little one is napping. I never take my eyes off of my kids. Even when they are napping, I check on them regularly to make sure they are safe. I would be honored, if given the opportunity to care for your little one. I am vigilant, loving & respectful. You can rest assured they will be left in the most diligent, reliable, loving and caring hands possible. I exemplify manners & respect. I will guide & encourage him or her through their next steps in the growth process, whatever those may be. Last but not least, my own rules: NO electronics on kid time! I am not on social media of any kind. No one texts me on a regular basis. No visitors! Never answer the door! Doors always locked! I will always have my phone close by in case you call me or I need to call you or in case of emergency. Thank you for your consideration. I wish you the best of luck in your search! Dawn
