I started out babysitting for my younger cousins at 15 years old. I was always a very responsible and family oriented girl. Now that all my little cousins have grown up, I babysit for other families! I've babysat for families with children between the ages of 6 months old to 12 years old, so I've got quite a bit of experience with all different ages. I am very good with intellectual disabilities as well! My most recent job was in a group home for adults with intellectual disabilities, so you can imagine the patience I have with children! I have handled 3 boys (twins!) ages 7 and the oldest at 12 years old, all with autism. Not to toot my own horn, but I am pretty much super babysitter! :) I absolutely love children of all ages because I myself am a kid at heart. I love everything Disney! I Read more also enjoy doing puzzles, coloring, arts and crafts (especially for holidays!) and karaoke is my absolute FAVORITE. I can also help with homework if needed. I love to stay active and try to eat healthy and organic when possible, so if you are a family looking for a health conscious babysitter, look no further! In the warmer months, we can go out to the park or the beach and play in the sand! During the colder months we can just have dance parties in the house to get our blood pumping! I'm a pretty darn good cook and an expert laundry folder! I can do a night time routine including dinner, bath time, cleaning up and doing laundry. I catch on quick to a routine so if you have a way of doing things I'm all eyes and ears. What makes me different than most babysitters is that I am 21 years old so I have the youthfulness and energy it takes to keep up with your children, but I have also ran my own household since 17 years old so I am mature and responsible enough to trust that all chores will be taken care of as well. I am CPR and First Aid certified. I am also certified to administer medication. Thank you for taking the time to read my story. I look forward to finding a family that I am the perfect fit for! If you are a parent with a younger child: I live for the excitement a child gets when they learn something new! Potty training and learning how to talk are challenges I will gladly take on and send you videos and pictures the whole way through!
