Mary $15 per hour for 1 child

I worked as a Child and Youth Program Assistant at Ramstein Air Force Base for a year, where I provided care, supervision, and developmental support for children of various ages. My responsibilities included leading activities tailored to different age groups, ensuring a safe and engaging environment, and maintaining positive communication with parents. Beyond my professional experience, I have a natural ability to connect with others, especially in caregiving roles. I’m patient, attentive, and adaptable, which allows me to meet the unique needs of children, seniors, or pets. My background in child development, combined with strong organizational skills and a nurturing personality, makes me a great caregiver. Additionally, I have experience caring for my own dog, ensuring she gets proper attention, exercise, and care. My time in the military also taught me discipline, responsibility, and crisis management—skills that translate well into caregiving roles.

I have recently returned home after college, and I am excited to start babysitting again. Please reach out! I have a lot of availability in my schedule. Best, Tess
