A little bit about me

Hi, I'm Lauren! I live in West Lafayette and have babysat since I was 13. My CPR certification is now expired, but I have taken the class before. I grew up volunteering for Vacation Bible Schools, Mini 4-H programs, and many other events that allowed me to develop the attributes required when caring for children. I am confident in my abilities to ensure your child is cared for well.

A little bit about me

I am a loving mother with a daughter who is now all grown up. I previously homeschool experience, babysitting, and daycare experience.

I like to provide a fun and educational experience whenever possible. This can be reading, counting, arts and crafts, games, singing, and dancing. I have even done a little bit of science. Let me know what your child enjoys and I will bring some great activities. If you have school age children I can help with homework and projects.

Needs some help tidying up? Not a problem! I can help with laundry and other house hold activities.

Did I mention that I love animals almost as much as I love kids? Kid love helping wash the dog, taking them for walks, and engaging in activities with your pet. I can help reinforce caring for pets with children.

I can prepare and make meals not just for children but the entire family. I also enjoy getting children in the kitchen. Teaching children to cook and bake is both fun and a skill they will use.
