Hello, I have been taking care of children for 5 years! I am currently looking for babysitting and nanny opportunities near the area. I started working with kids in 2018, and in 2022 I started working in a classroom environment. I currently work with infants and toddlers at a daycare caring for up to 7 infants at a time, and 4-9 toddlers. I am looking for a job with more flexibility! I have experience with infants from 3 months to children 12 years of age. I am certified in infant care, toddler care/education, preschool education, special ed, and CPR for infants, children and adults. I have experience in helping infants, toddlers, and preschoolers grow, learn and develop. I absolutely adore working with kids of all ages! I couldn't imagine doing anything else for work. I love to plan crafts and activities for them if parents are comfortable! My overall goal Read more is to keep children safe and happy and help the parents as much as possible. Rather that means running errands, picking the kids up, cooking or light cleaning! I am currently in school for Child Psychology and will be earning my associate degree in 2025. I am available for different times depending on what you need, send me a message to work a schedule out! I adore caring for any age, and pets too! I hope you will consider me to care for your little one(s)
