I am a licensed social worker currently looking for occasional weeknight and weekend babysitting jobs. I currently nanny for another family (with an 8 month old and a 5 year old) while I am in the process of looking for a full time job in my field, so I am not available for daytime sitting during the week at this time. I have had experience caring for children for 15 years. My experience includes working with children and teens with special needs, teaching preschool (ages 3-4), teaching Sunday school/vacation Bible school, working with infants (6 mos+), transporting children to/from school and activities, and general babysitting. I completed my internship with a foster care agency in Columbus, and specialize in child welfare. My interests include reading, sports, video games, arts & crafts, music, and theatre. I am open to caring for children in all family types, and am comfortable being around Read more and/or caring for family pets as well. I can provide references upon request.

Lauren has a great easy-going style that my boys love. She has sat for them a number of times when I have travelled out of town for work, doing early morning duty and getting them off to school which is no easy feat! They bonded with her easily and have asked to have her back when I travelled again, which unfortunately in their eyes isn't enough!
