I've been my family and friend's go-to when they need someone to take care of their kids and I'm ready to do the same for you! I'm prior military and pursuing school so looking to supplement my income with babysitting/nanny duties. I love kids, and they love me too. I was the neighborhood's big brother growing up, and I enjoy taking care of them. Even out in public, I tend to make babies smile and chat with kids.
