A little bit about me

Hello ! My name is Marlee, I am currently 19 years old and have been a paid babysitter for about two years now. I did respite care of three children ages 4, 5 and 8! I am not certified as I am only a teen however I’ve had much experience with all three as they were all different and take pride in my work. I don’t have a means of transportation so I mainly take the bus. In my respite care I would do drop offs and pick ups to school however that was in walking distance from my house and may or may not be applicable. I love to draw and cartoons and I enjoy playing games with the children!
