Hi! My name is Kaylee, I’m 22 years old and I’m a native to the Charlotte area. I’m currently working as a supervisor at Starbucks and attending their ASU college program. I’ve been babysitting as a side gig since I was 17 years old. My specialty ages are 4-9 years old. I typically help with after school activities such as homework, reading and writing as well as other fun stuff like coloring, crafts and outdoor activities. On top of that, I can cook lunch or dinner and clean up the dishes when they’re finished. My objectives while babysitting include making sure your child is having good, safe fun while simultaneously wearing them out so once I leave, they’re ready for bedtime, a nap or quiet time. I’m said to be friendly, helpful, punctual and energetic so I’ll have no problems keeping up with the energy levels a child has. While my profile is geared towards babysitting I have no issue with running errands, cooking or cleaning up if that is what your family needs! I’ve grown up with German Shepards and occasionally dog-sit Pomeranians so I’m experienced with both large and small dogs. I also have a cat of my own so I’m comfortable with them as well. I look forward to meeting you and your little ones!
