I’ve worked with children of all ages, but I have lots of experience with school age children! I have been babysitting since I was around 10 years old. My aunt owned a daycare company and so I helped her after school for many years. As a senior in high school I was also a teachers aide for a kindergarten class so I have experience creating activities and helping with school work A little about myself, I am currently a senior at the University of Saint Mary in Leavenworth. There I am a part of the swim team, honors program, theology club, prelaw club and more. I was also previously a lifeguard so I have very extensive CPR, First Aid, and Emergency training. Let me know if you have any more questions, thank you for your time!

"UrbanSitter is my go-to for quality sitters! I can book weeks ahead of time or easily find a same-day sitter when in a bind. I even hired a part-time nanny during a daycare transition. Customer service is helpful and babysitters respond in a timely manner."
