A little bit about me
I'm 18 years old. I not just like a regular old babysitter, I’m very adamant on getting to know them, interact with them, and care for their needs. I'm very mature for my age. I have 4 years of experience with kids from all ages. (0-17y/o) I played softball for 8 years. I took some course at the University of Findlay. I graduated from Watkins High School. I have a good work ethic; I've been working since I was 14. I'm great with kids all ages and I do light housekeeping, cooking, little bit of pet care. I grew up in a big family of 10 being the second oldest. I have my licenses and my own car.

My name is Lauren! I'm a fourth-year student at Ohio State, earning my Bachelor of Science in Speech and Hearing Science, with a minor in Developmental Psychology. I hope to become a Speech Pathologist and work with kids in the future. I have 5 years of experience as a summer camp counselor (35 hours a week, 10 weeks each summer- so I've had lots of time working with kids!) I am CPR certified and have a clean driving record, and also have experience working with children with autism. I'm looking to find a part-time job where I can help out with the kids in afternoons or evenings!!

A little bit about me
I am a fun-loving, creative person who truly enjoys working with, learning from, and sharing knowledge with kids of all ages. I love cats and dogs and enjoy listening to music and story-telling. I'm a lover of all things crafty, creative, colorful, vintage, and I love a good book or story. I have a bachelor's degree in Criminal Justice and dedicated my first 10+ years in the workforce working with survivors of domestic violence, something I am very passionate about. I am very appreciative of these experiences but I am ready to pursue a different path. I have 10+ years of part-time childcare experience, both in daycare settings as well as after school, evenings, nd weekend care for children. I am really looking forward to making it my full-time profession and passion.
