Hello ! ! ! Graduated from the University of Alabama in 2019. I work for a real estate tech start up during the week. I have always enjoyed babysitting and love picking up a babysitting gig here and there. It has always been a fun thing for me and a great way to meet families! I began my babysitting career in middle school and since then I have worked as a mothers help, date night sitter, summer break nanny, and weekend overnight sitter. For 3 years of high school I worked at a local yoga studio in childcare, and spent three summers as a camp counselor. I have a wide range of experience with all ages throughout the past 12+ years of working for a wide range of families!

Hi there! I’m Summer — it’s so nice to virtually meet you and I’d love the chance to get to know you and your family! 🤍 A little about me: My husband and I have been on a journey to start a family of our own for the past three years. We’ve gone through the full IVF process (what a ride!) and while it hasn’t worked out yet, I absolutely adore kids and can’t wait for the day we have some of our own running around. I have over twenty years of experience with little ones (ages 6mo+), and I’m a big fan of park playdates, naptime routines, and even tackling those stinky diaper situations with a smile 😆 I recently completed a background check, car inspection, medical clearance, and I’m certified in First Aid and child CPR. Bonus: I’m also a Rover-approved dog sitter, so I’m more than happy to help out with your furry family members too! I’m born and raised here in OC and just moved back from LA. I’m looking to fill my schedule and connect with a new family or two! If you’re looking for a kind, reliable, and energetic helping hand — I’d love to chat and see how I can support your family. ❤️ Thanks so much for reading! Summer
