Madison $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Madison! I was born and raised in Jacksonville, Florida. I have two older brothers and we all played sports growing up as well as in high school. I have a very outgoing, bubbly, and funny personality and knows how to take initiative. I started babysitting when I was 14, then went into being a nanny and transferred to being a floater/2’s teacher at a preschool. I’m currently studying Radiology in hopes of getting my doctorate to be a pediatric radiologist. I’m experienced in household upkeep, meal planning/prepping, childcare ranging from 1-13 years old, and excellent with animals.
