A little bit about me

Hi!

Im Sabrina im a 23 year old grad from SU! I Love being playful with kids and being able to creatively teach them new things as I believe there is a lesson to learn in every action! I enjoy cooking and having fun in the kitchen as well as getting outside (when the weather permits) and spending time in the fresh air. I also adore animals and have spent my whole life around them, training is almost second nature at this point haha.

While at SU I studied Theater Design (which extends to movies!) where I learned all about costumes, sets, lighting, makeup and sound- but most of all how to collaborate and make work FUN! Although I enjoyed my degree, over the past year I have gotten more into interior design and decorating, but have always found a comfort in spending time with children and families, helping out whenever possible!

I love fast-paced work and even when there's "down time" im always looking for something else to accomplish.

Looking forward to finding a family to work with

A little bit about me

Babies and kids of most ages from 0-13 months are very drawn to my energry and love to be around me. I have many natural instincts on being a care taker and work really well with understanding children's likes and dislikes. I am a kid at heart and that's what makes me a great sitter. I also have a child of my own. Who is 3 month's old and Gabriel is very friendly and loves play dates! :)....with my services since I do not own a vehicle yet...I need to have the child dropped off to my home care center.

A little bit about me

My name is Khadijah and I’m currently looking for a family in need of babysitting services. I love working with children and being able to create a fun and welcoming environment for them. I've worked as a Camp Counselor and Peer Mentor for children ages 6-14.

I’m currently pursuing my nursing education, which has taught me strong skills such as being patient, the importance of time management, and how to provide compassionate care. Coming from a big family of six, I understand how much an extra helping hand can mean to a family. My goal is to make babysitting a loving and positive experience for both you and your children.

If you or someone you know is looking for a babysitter, feel free to message me for more information! ❤️
