Hello! I am an energetic student seeking a part time caregiving position. I have an extensive background in working with children through nannying, babysitting, volunteering within the community as well as internationally, and through teaching dance to children of all ages. I am a 19 year-old female student studying at Temple University and originally from Doyelstown, Pennyslvania. I have a passion for working with children and would love to continue to pursue my passion! I have experienced working with children of all ages. I am very compassionate, outgoing, energetic, and creative so an average day of nannying or babysitting might be spent by playing sports and activities, crafting, and spending time outside. I have had experience working and accommodating to children who are intellectually challenged children, have disabilities, Spanish speaking, and children with severe allergies. It is especially important to me as a caregiver to not only serve as that Read more but to act as a light in the children and families lives.

Laura worked full time as a nanny with our family for nine months before heading off to college. Our children miss her so much and we would love to have her back if we could! She is officially a member of our family. She took a genuine interest in the kid's interests, including hours of basement kickball with my ten year old during the long winter months! She taught my one-year-old so much, was so active with her and they have a very special bond. She is eager to learn, warm, caring, met all of our daily expectations and has a strong sense of integrity. She's wonderful!
