A little bit about me
hello my name is livi! Im 24 years old, born and raised Oregonian. I have worked with kids for almost 10 years now, I was a preschool teacher for about 4 of those years. After that I continued to baby-sit on my own time. I have more experience working with toddlers but Ive worked with children of all ages. My love for kids started at a young age, it started out as volunteering then it became a career. Im an active person so I like to involve outside time as much as I can when I babysit. I also find myself doing lots of arts and crafts as well as different types of activities with the kiddos I look after. Some parents appreciate summaries of their kids day and that's something I can definitely provide. I can also provide a resume and I'm open for interview as well. Due to the current public events I'm also encouraging and open to extra health precautions.. Im hoping to connect with families and provide care to their little ones!

A little bit about me
My name is Chelsea, everyone calls me chels! Im 23 years old and ive always loved kids. Growing up ive always been told i was born with a mother’s instinct. Once i got Into high school i wanted to learn about children, and how they grow mentally and physically. so i got myself into a 2 year course of child psychology and child development. That class taught me a lot of responsibility and insight on how to care for all ages of children and understand children of all types such as special needs, autism, and behavioral issues. I also learned what to do in serious situations like if the child were to choke or go unconscious. The last couple years ive nannied for a family of 4 kids between the ages of 5-12 but the children are older and don’t need much supervision anymore. So here i am now, ready to help more loving families that need it:)
