A little bit about me

Hi! I'm Dashia, an 19-year-old college student at Prairie State College , looking to start babysitting while focusing on school as well. As the older sibling of six, I have plenty of hands-on experience caring for kids of all ages. Last 2 summers, I've worked at a summer camp, which helped me develop essential skills like patience, communication, and problem-solving. I understand the importance of creating a safe and fun environment, and I'm confident in my ability to handle meal prep, homework help, and bedtime routines. I'm excited to bring my experience and enthusiasm to babysitting! If you would like to know more I would love for you to get back with me soon!
