Hi! My name is Caitlyn! I am 19 and a college student, studying nursing. I am offering child care, pet care, and household care. I am CPR and First Aid Certified. I have been babysitting since I was 12 for ages 2-12. I have also taught Sunday school/babysitting during church for ages from newborn to 11 years for the past 2 years now. Growing up I had a dog and two cats whom I have taken full care of. I know how to preform basic household chores along with running errands. I often do both of those to help my mom out. I truly love being around kids and just having a good time!
