A little bit about me

I’m 18, and a senior at Saint Joseph High School. I have loved caring for kids ever since I can remember, but started babysitting when I was 12. I have experience with babies from 1 month to kids 10 years old. I am CPR certified, stop the bleed certified, and know how to save a choking child. I am very passionate about caring for children and have spent hours and hours of unpaid time just to hold babies. I have had experience with infant and toddler twins, and three kids at a time (max) on my own. I can drive, clean, transport kids, and make sure they have fun safely. I keep kids off screens as much as possible and prioritize outdoor activities as much at possible. I also have worked at Power in Motion since Spring of 2022, and have enjoyed working in the preschool and preteam department. I love babysitting and/or nannying so please reach out if you’re interested!
