Jamie $16 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Jamie I am currently a senior in highschool and I am attending college at A&M university. I have been working at mainsqueeze juice company for a year and a half so I do have job experience but most importantly I do have experience with children. I love being a babysitter and I have cared for kids from newborns all the way to 13 years old! I have babysat for families in my neiborhood and have driven their kids to places needed, daycare, etc. I can always help your kid(s) with homework and I am a very good good so I can always ensure they will have good meals/meal preps if needed. I love hanging out make making sure that whomever I am caring for, there safety and protection is first. I have grown up with animals all my life between 3 dogs 2 cats and various cage pets as well as pet sitting for other families. I get off of school at 2:45 but every other day I get off at 12:45 (kind of confusing but I go to Lutheran south academy so we have block scheduling) and I am interested in an afterschool job or if you are needing any help on the weekends! Thank you!
