A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Allison and I’m currently living in Ithaca, NY.

I’ve been babysitting occasionally for five years, and have been surrounded by young children in my family for as long as I can remember.

I love being outside and teaching children about plants, animals, and the stars. I enjoy cooking and baking with no recipe. I’m very energetic and always singing a tune or listening to music.

I’m looking for more experience babysitting because taking care of & teaching/learning from children is one of the things I’m most passionate about.

I’m new to finding families online, so if you have questions that weren’t covered in this little intro don’t be afraid to ask!

I have 3 years of experience as an in-cabin camp counselor for girls ages 7-12 at a sleepaway camp.

A little bit about me

Hello,
My name is Zara. I am college student looking to be nanny for the summer and any other break I get from college. My major is Film, Photography and Visual Arts. I love working with kids and having fun with them. I am a very creative and energetic person. I am also very responsible and punctual. I love having fun, running around, cooking, crocheting and especially working out. Lifting is one of my favourite things to do. I grew up in a very kind and loving family and just how my parents treated me with compassion and affection, I love to babysit kids that way.
Back when I lived in California, I babysat a lot of children, Toddlers, preschoolers and school-aged children. Sometimes, I would babysit one kid and other times I am asked to take care of a group of them. That's why I am good at managing stressful situations especially when children are very agitated. In fact, I grew up taking care of my cousins so I really enjoy the company of kids and babies too.

A little bit about me

I have many years experience with children of all ages. I come from a large family and of course they have friends, who have used my services also. I love children because they see a world that we do not see. I enjoy teaching them new things and allowing them to experience them firsthand. During the warm weather, I prefer limiting the amount of time they are able to spend on electronic devices so that the children can enjoy the outdoors.
