just a almost 16yr old kid who wants to help kids!

Hello, my name is Stefani. I live in Powell OH and would love to be able to help kids and parents! Although I don't have my drivers license, I'm still able to walk to nearby houses here in Shawnee Hills. And if I'm able to, I could also bike there. My parents could also help me out if the house is not walking distance for me and they could pick up/drop me off. I love helping kids and although I may seem young, I can still manage kids. I have a baby brother myself that I took care of when my father was working. I would feed him, change him, bathe him, and do all the other stuff any parents could possibly do. The latest I could work is up to 10pm and the earliest 8am. I live not even five minutes from the Dublin-Powell Church of Christ. If you are interested in a babysitter in Shawnee hills, please email me at wells.12@dublinstudents.net.
