Victoria $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Tori Lawson, I am 20 years old and I am going into my senior year at the University of Alabama. I am going back to school on August 14th so I am completely available until then. I have experience babysitting my younger cousins, I have been babysitting them since I was 13 years old. I also worked as a counselor for a summer camp. There, I was taking care of children ages 3-14, while mainly focusing on children ages 6-10. I am absolutely a dog lover!! I have a small shish tzu at home, but am very comfortable with dogs of any size and age! I also take care of my sister’s cats when she is away from home so I would be comfortable helping out with cats as well. I do not have any experience in senior caretaking, however I would love to help out with driving to appointments, cooking dinner, or other tasks the job may require. I am also happy to work as a household assistant with cooking, cleaning, or whatever you might need!! One thing to know about me is that I am currently majoring in psychology, as well as minoring in sociology and neuroscience. I plan to continue my education and pursue a career in child psychology, where I will be able to help children work through problems and guide them to a better future for themselves.

Booked by 1 family in Branford, CT

I have 8+ years of experience in childcare and teaching ballet. I grew up in a large family and have had many childcare and teaching jobs over the past years. Working with children is something I enjoy doing on a weekly basis, as I'm a ballet instructor for a couple studios in the area! I like teaching children concepts and watching them grow in their understanding of them. I've done coursework in Early Childhood Development and would be happy to tutor and assist with online learning. I am also happy to help with Driving, Housekeeping, Laundry, etc. I'm looking for a job with hours mostly in the afternoons and evenings (after I get out of the studio) and weekends.
