A little bit about me

My name is Chloe Sullivan and I am a junior attending Governor's Academy. I live in Newburyport, MA during the school year and babysit many kids in my neighborhood when I'm not studying or playing sports. I have a home in Osterville, MA and am looking for a babysitting or nannying job for the summer. I am very active and love caring for children of all ages. I drive and I am CPR and first aid certified. In my free time I love to go to the beach with my friends, surf and paddle board and swim. I love to workout and run and listen to music. I am going to be applying for college soon and will be applying as a nursing major.
I have 2 siblings who are older than I am and have loved visiting them in college these past few years.
I'd be happy to share more about myself if I am someone you'd like to learn more about and possibly interview. Thank you!

"Chloe is everything you hope for in a babysitter. She is incredibly reliable, trustworthy and calm. She’s the kind of person you can leave your kids with and truly relax knowing they’re in great hands. She consistently gets our kids to bed on time, follows routines, and keeps everything running smoothly plus our kids adore her. She plays with them, keeps them entertained, and makes them feel safe and cared for. We never have to worry when Chloe is with them, which is priceless as a parent. I can’t say enough good things about her and would recommend her without hesitation to any family looking for someone dependable, warm, and wonderful with kids!"

Hi, my name is Anya! I am a student at The University of Vermont studying Civil Engineering. In my free time I typically enjoy music, reading, skiing, and spending time with friends. I grew up in Massachusetts with my two dogs and younger brother. I looked after all of them whenever needed, and as I grew up, developed a small set of family friends I would regularly sit for. Aside from sitting, I have worked at pet boarding and daycare companies in Massachusetts as well as a student-run restaurant within my high school, where I trained in things like safety, sanitation, food preparation, allergen contamination, and organization.
