Meet Shannon

I started babysitting at a very young age and became my neighbor's and cousin's permanent babysitter. I built close relationships with all of the children and have loved watching them grow over the years. I have experience babysitting children ranging from 7 months to 11 years. I am a certified babysitter by the American National Red Cross and have always had a natural ability and confidence with children.I also grew up with many animals in my home and am very comfortable and happy to look after the house pets as well! A very important part of my life is my dance career and as a teacher of dance. I have taught children of all ages and have taught Ballet, Jazz, and Tap at many different dance schools in Western New York. This experience and passion in the arts and as a teacher is unique and can be of value in Read more this job. I went to college at The University of Arizona and graduated a year and a half early with my Bachelor of Fine Arts in Dance. I have a variety of favorite babysitting activities and experiences that will help me engage with diverse interests. I love to read, engage in imaginative play and dance and sing with kids. My creative side also loves arts and crafts and anything that allows the children to explore their imagination. Growing up with two brothers, I have also always loved outdoor activities like playing sports, particularly hockey and lacrosse, and going on walks, and playing hide and seek.Overall, I enjoy helping children have fun and am excited for the opportunity to be a major part of a memorable summer with your children.
