A little bit about me

Hi, I'm Max! I'm a 22-year-old recently-graduated student of Ohio University. I studied biology and public health, receiving CPR certification and knowledge of first aid and child behavior. Back home, I have a sweet little brother; he's 16 now, but I stepped in on raising him and spent my teen years babysitting the neighborhood kids. It wasn't always paid, but I always loved it. I am a very creative and active person; my favorite babysitting memories are of the summers I would spend setting up activities and games for my brother and his friends. I hope that you will consider me as a sitter!
