A little bit about me

'm a sophomore at Virginia Tech, majoring in psychology! I have been babysitting and nannying for various families in my hometown for 5 years now, and I love being around kids and caring for children of all ages. Most of my jobs have been for families in my neighborhood and community. Although I have not worked professionally for a babysitting agency in the past, I am well-qualified and experienced to care for children. I am Red Cross certified and have completed CPR training, so you can be confident knowing your child will be safe under my care. This past summer, I spent time nannying for two separate families, one with a 10-year-old and one with a 10-month-old, so I have a wide range of skills when it comes to all ages. I also have experience tutoring children and can offer my skills to help with homework or projects. When I am babysitting, I love going outside and enjoying nature with the kids, allowing them to explore and grow their creativity and adventurous sides.
