I am 22 years old and have four younger siblings. From a very young age I enjoyed being involved in their care. As soon as I was old enough, I got a job at a summer camp, and have worked in childcare ever since. When I was 16 I started babysitting regularly for several different families, two of which I have babysat for regularly since then! At 17 I got my first nanny job, caring for a sixth grader after school. This included picking him up from school and bringing him home, helping him with homework, driving him to activities, tidying the house, and fixing dinner for him and the family. This job ended after my senior year of high school and I went to Belmont University last school year, where I continued babysitting in order to pay bills while in school. Then last summer I got a position as Read more a nanny which lasted from May-October. In this position I was responsible for a five year old boy, a two year old girl, and an infant. Then I took a short hiatus from full time nannying until one of the families I started babysitting for when I was sixteen had twins in February, at which time I became their full-time nanny while they transitioned from a family of four to a family of six. Now they’re not needing full time care anymore, so I’m starting the search for a new full time job! To tell you more about me aside from my work experience... I went to the University of Memphis online and got a degree in history. I enjoy horseback riding, reading, swimming, and being outdoors in general. I spend a lot of my free time taking long walks, playing board games, watching movies/musicals, and exploring hobbies such as art, crochet, sewing, etc. I always have a new project to work on, as I love learning new skills. I was raised in Spring Hill, Tennessee, a small town just outside of Nashville, and hope to start traveling a bit. Thank you for reading my profile! I can't wait to meet you and your children!
