A little bit about me

I have always loved working with children. I've been doing this since I was 18 years old. My very first job was taking care of a 3moth baby boy. Mother was a pediatrician, so I lean a lot from her. Baby was fed only mothers' milk, so I had to learn how to properly store express milk. Going on daily walk around neighborhood was one of the things I did. Reed stories outload, play and give full attention to baby. Some light housekeeping as well. Washing child's bottles and clothing. My second family was with a lawyer taking care of her 2 month old girl. With this family I stayed about 10 years.

A little bit about me

Hello, I’m a sophomore in college at Point Loma! I’ve grown up babysitting and working with children through my church! I have a vehicle and am able to be flexible around my school schedule! The biggest conflict would be my class scheduled times but I am more than willing to be able to work something out if possible! I also have plans to get cpr certified in the near future. I am also available whenever on weekends and pretty much every late afternoon-evening on weekdays.
