Hello! My name is Lauren, but you can call me Liz and I’m a child care specialist! Being the eldest of 4 siblings, I have always had a knack for child care. I started babysitting at the age of 12 and have been doing it ever since! I am comfortable taking care of children of any age, however, I specialize in early childhood care. This last year I spent most of my time working in a day care as a lead teacher for children between the ages of 6 weeks to 24 months. I loved my job, but due to chronic health issues I was unable to continue doing what I loved full time. Babysitting allows me to better balance my love of caring for others, with my much needed self care. With that being said, customer service is my area of expertise. I will go above and beyond to Read more make sure your children and home are well cared for. I love music, animals, games, crafts, and outside adventures. Whatever activities you would like for us to do, just let me know! I am first aid and CPR certified. Please reach out if you have any questions. Thank you!
