A little bit about me

I am a college student at Reed College staying over the summer for an internship. Most of my childcare experience has been through helping take care of/babysitting my three younger siblings who are 7-9 years younger than me. I have been involved throughout their whole lives so I am comfortable with children any age. Due to my experience with my younger siblings I am also comfortable working with siblings and know
how to manage multiple kids at once. Overall, I love playing with children and would love to babysit while i’m apart from my own siblings. I am up for cooking, cleaning, preparing snacks, reading, playing, crafts, and playing outside!
