A little bit about me

Hello! I am a college sophomore that attends American University in D.C., and I am really looking for a job! I love to babysit family friends, and just enjoy caring for kids in general, so I am hoping to continue that while I’m attending school. I’ve babysat quite a few kids, and am also certified with American Red Cross for any emergencies when it comes to babysitting. I have my license, I can cook, clean, and have experience with caring for kids (of course) of any age, no matter what the circumstances are.

I love doing activities with kids, such as going outside, bike riding, reading a book, etc.

I have a slight allergy to cats and dogs, but nothing that Benadryl can’t handle.

A little bit about me

I am a certified EMT-B and have over 3 years of experience preforming lifesaving and routine interventions for pediatric and adult patients. I helped raise my two siblings, one of which has ASD, and I have held a CPR certification since I was 13 years old. I have a BS in Biology and I begin medical school in July, 2026. I am very passionate about engaging with kids and keeping them active mentally and physically. I am always willing to learn and adapt to established routines and behaviors. I am happy to help with pets too! I am looking to work long days (up to 12 hours) with the potential of “call-ins” if there are any last-minute plans or emergencies. I am also happy to work overnight shifts if need be!
