I love being a baby sitter because I love working with kids, helping them learn and grow, and becoming a fun + safe space for them! I am currently attending university studying Psychology and Sociology, with concentrations in crime, justice, social services, and public policy. I've babysat for family members since I was 10, and got my babysitting liscence at 12 + started working with families/children outside of my family at 13. I worked as a swim instructor managing 6-8 children at a time for 5 years (2020-2025), and in the classroom as a teachers aide for 2 years (2022-2024). I am first aid certified, CPR certified, completed safety care trining, and more. I currently work as a behavior tech and autism associate, working with children and adults with autism, special needs, and behavioral needs.
