A little bit about me

Hi!- I’m a college student studying social work and I have previous child experience with all ages, from those younger than one year old, up to teenage years; but I’m most familiar with toddlers. I’m currently looking for extra hours at the end of the week or the weekend. I’m one of the oldest cousins in my family, so that role automatically comes with babysitting responsibilities. I’m skilled in meal prep, activity planning, diaper changes, and I have my own car. I love watching kids learn and seeing where their curiosity leads them.

I also have pet care and house sitting experience. I’m comfortable with any animal from dogs or cats, to amphibians and reptiles. I’m also able to cook and clean if needed.
