Hello there! My name is Olivia Castleman. I'm 22 years of age, have reliable transportation, no criminal record, and am comfortable with pets! I am a responsible, patient, and dependable caregiver with extensive experience working with children of many ages. I am currently back in the area for the year, taking a gap year to raise money for tuition before returning to UNC to complete my degree. I grew up in a neighborhood bustling with kids and was babysat often myself, so I understand how important it is that a babysitter provides not only a safe environment, but also a fun and engaging one. I aim to create a positive experience where children feel comfortable, entertained, and well cared for, and where parents feel confident and reassured. Experience: - I began babysitting at age 15. - Spent this past summer in Charlotte babysitting my two nieces, ages 4 and 9 Read more - Regularly babysit children in my neighborhood, with ages ranging from 4 to 13, references available upon request - Served as a summer camp counselor for a group of 20 children ages 3 to 8 - Worked as a lifeguard for two summers - Provide private swim lessons every summer for children ages 4 to 12 - Served as an assistant coach for my neighborhood swim team for multiple years, working with a team of 100+ children - And more! Please feel free to reach out for additional details on any of my listed experiences Skills & Responsibilities: - Regular babysitting for families with children ranging from infants to middle school age - Preparing meals and snacks while accommodating dietary needs and preferences - Assisting with homework, reading, and age-appropriate educational activities - Planning fun, screen-limited activities such as crafts, games, and outdoor play - Managing bedtime routines, including baths, reading, and settling children for the night - Ensuring child safety at all times and handling minor conflicts calmly and patiently - Providing transportation to school, practices, and playdates as needed - Helping with light housework such as laundry, dishwashing, vacuuming, and tidying up I make it my priority to ensure that children are not only safe and well cared for, but that they are genuinely enjoying their time while being babysat. I would love the opportunity to support your family and create a positive, fun, and reliable experience for both you and your children.
