Here for all you sitting and nanny needs

There's something truly special about the laughter of children and the sparkle in their eyes. I adore babies and kids for their endless energy and pure curiosity. Each giggle and coo reminds me to appreciate the simple joys in life.

Engaging with them is an absolute delight. Whether it’s playing games, reading stories, or exploring together, every moment is a chance to create lasting memories. I love seeing their faces light up when they learn something new.

Teaching them is a true privilege. I cherish nurturing their curiosity and imagination. Watching them grow and discover the world is amazing. From their first words to their endless questions, every step is filled with potential.

In these moments, I see a bright future ahead. My love for babies and kids inspires me to be a better person, to show them the joy of learning, and to it motivates and inspires me to be a better person.

Excited Babysitter!

Hi there! My name is Coleen, and I am so excited to start babysitting as soon as I can. I love kids and taking care of people. I enjoy being able to play with children and teach them anything, as I've wanted to become a babysitter since before I was 13. I wasn't old enough to be able to, but now I'm currently 17 and looking forward to a summer full of taking care of kids, and hope to be able to continue the job into my school time.

I have two little sisters, aged 11 and 8. I've been changing diapers and watching them on my own since I was very young, which included making sure they were fed and washed, and put to bed in time. I've taken them to the park and our city shopping center, and have never had an issue. I am also currently a high school student in high school. I've kept my grades high while taking difficult classes, and still prioritizing family time and other extracurriculars. I am the captain of my cheer team, and will continue to be next year, as well as the current president of my school's fashion club. I am also a volunteer at my local library, where I help with any of the children’s needs. This includes signing them up for reading programs, helping them do crafts, reading to them, etc. When it comes to housekeeping, I've been helping with my mom's cleaning business since I was young, and enjoy cleaning and the upkeep of tidiness. I currently have two pet bunnies, one of them being about 8 years old and the other being about 1-2 years, since I rescued him from the street. I also have a cat who's about 3-4 years old, since I also rescued her when I moved to my house. I have experience in caring for mt pets, as well as helping my family friends care for their pets, such as taking their dog for a walk. As well as having two younger sisters, I have an older brother and older sister. I have a lot of experience by helping my mom in the kitchen, and making full meals for all my siblings. I enjoy cleaning, doing laundry, and keeping the house organized.
