A little bit about me

Hiii! My name is Mariah, and I have been babysitting for as long as I can remember. As the eldest of six children, I have extensive experience in child and infant care. Currently, I am sixteen years old, hold a driver's license, and have my own car. I also work part-time and am a member of the class of 2026.

While I've been babysitting informally since childhood, I began receiving payment for my services in my community, including caring for my principal's son, about four years ago. I am creative in engaging children, encouraging learning, and ensuring their safety. My responsibilities also include cooking, cleaning, and assisting with homework.

I understand that children can sometimes be challenging, but my experience has equipped me with essential skills such as patience, flexibility, effective communication, problem-solving, emotional intelligence, and conflict resolution. If you have any questions or require further information, please feel free to reach out!
