I’m a college student at George Mason University studying marketing, and I’m a responsible, caring, and dependable person who genuinely enjoys working with kids. I have babysitting experience as well as experience volunteering at a daycare. I’m comfortable caring for children of different ages, helping with homework, preparing snacks and simple meals, and keeping kids entertained with games, crafts, and outdoor activities. I’m patient, attentive, and always make safety a priority. I’m also comfortable with pets and helping with light household or child related tasks. I’m looking forward to finding families to help out!

I got my most experience from raising my three kids, and I always loved being surrounded with children even before having my own. so after graduating from college I worked as a pre-school teacher for 2 years in my country where I enjoyed creating fun activities for children, teaching and playing with them. In the last few years working as a part-time babysitter for children ranging from infants a few months old to 13-year-olds gives me a broad view of child development and a strong foundation for managing different age groups. As a mom, spending time with my kids was and still so precious to me, and I assure you that I will treat your kids and take care of them like they were my own. I am available early morning and afternoon , and the whole day on Thursday and Sunday, and I will be more than glad to help in taking care of your kids during these times. I have First Aid/CPR/AED certification, & up to date on flu vaccine. *References available upon request.

Medication Administation Training (MAT) Certified About me: I love learning and teaching. I have a ton of little cousins so I was the babysitter in my family growing up and have always been around kids of all ages, which is what got me into childcare in the beginning. Patients is key, in my opinion, and anything can be taught with both patients and determination. I grew up playing many different sports and think exercise is important but I my passion is reading and I love doing read alouds with the kids. It can surprise people how much some of the older kids appreciate being read to.
