A little bit about me
Hello! My name is Caroline, and I’m 17 years old and a senior at Yorktown high school. I’m looking for babysitting jobs in the Arlington area but am willing to commute up to 20 miles. I love kids and my current career path is an elementary school teacher! I have been caring for children for years now, and I am also CPR and first-aid certified. I am available after 6 pm, Mon, Tue, Wed, and Thur-Sun is usually always open! I also have my drivers license, so carpooling is not an issue either. Pm or comment if interested please!

A little bit about me
I have 5 years of experience. I can help with Light Housekeeping and Cooking/Meal Preparation. I don't drive so I'd be walking or biking everywhere unless a friend can provide a ride. I've been babysitting for friends and family for the past five years and working at a daycare. Babysitting will help me hone my skills when I become a teacher.
Additionally, I'm AED and CPR certified. Past clients have described me as fun, outgoing, and excellent with kids. Lastly, I've helped children who were completely nonverbal learn to find their voice and self.

Being patient, creative, and genuinely caring are qualities I bring to my role as a nanny. I love forming special bonds with the kids I care for and becoming a trusted companion for them. It's a truly rewarding experience that brings me so much joy. If you're looking for a dedicated and compassionate nanny, I'd love to chat further! 😊
