I am a college student at the University of Kentucky studying Elementary Education. I have experience with babysitting children and have been CPR as well as AED certified. I have my own apartment and would be willing to watch your children from my home if you can provide a drop off and pickup! I am available to people who would like their children taken care of from 4pm until midnight throughout the week and anytime over the weekend! I have a pet chihuahua as a heads up. He is very friendly and loving with a calm temperament. If you are interested, I am located in the central of downtown Lexington. Feel free to contact me!
