I’m a college student at Boise State University studying Communication, with a strong background in working with both children and animals. I graduated high school two years ago and have spent the past several years gaining hands on experience through teaching dance classes at multiple studios. While working at the dance studio, I also completed CPR and basic medical training, preparing me to handle a variety of situations with care and confidence.
I’ve worked with children of all ages in both group and one on one settings, helping them learn, stay active, and feel supported. Alongside teaching, I’ve also babysat for several families, which has helped me develop strong skills in nurturing, problem-solving, and staying calm under pressure.
In addition to child care, I have a lot of experience with animals. I have three cats and a dog of my own, so I’m very familiar with the day to day needs and behaviors of pets. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, and general care.
I have been babysitting my two younger siblings since I was 12 years old and when I turned 16 I began sitting the younger children in my neighborhood. I a good with children and animals and am willing and responsible to take care of both in my care. I am starting my freshman year of college at Boise State University and am majoring in mathematics and accountancy. I have experience teaching and tutoring children and have been taught and can preform CPR and basic first aid though I am not certified. I can clean homes and cook basic meals such a dinners. I hope that any parent that chooses to leave their kid or kids in my care knows that I acknowledge the responsibilities they are giving me and know that their children's safety is always my first priority.
I can travel to neighboring suburbs/towns of Boise for work.
