Ashlyn $15 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Ashlyn and I am currently an Elementary Education student at ASU, so I love working with people! I love reading, singing, and building Legos in my free time, and I overall have a very positive and outgoing personality. I have had a few babysitting jobs with family-friends that included kids aged 3-10 years old, but am available for kids outside of that range as well. I have done a few internships within my school where I was part of different classes for 1st, 3rd, 6th grades, and some SPED experience too! I am a former server at a retirement home, and I worked with older individuals for nearly 3 years. While I did mainly serve food, I also had the opportunity to get to know the residents and build close bonds with them. I absolutely love animals! I have 2 cats of my own, so I am very familiar with them as pets and their requirements. I also have a few experiences with dog sitting, and enjoy taking care of them.
