A fresh graduate of highschool who’s looking to take any and all types of sitting jobs. I’ve had pets almost all my life and at some points was the only carer for said pets. I’m also the oldest of 5 so babysitting children is very familiar with me including cooking, caring, playing, and putting to bed as well as changing diapers and outdoor activities. My mother has always described me as a natural at taking care of children and that kids often tend to gravitate towards me and my energy
Hi! My name is Emma and I'm a college student! I've been babysitting since I was in middle school and once I became old enough to get a job I became a day camp counselor for kids ages 5-11. I was CPR and first aid certified, however that just expired, I can totally get it renewed. I'm experienced with newborns and toddlers as well, as I've watched them for family friends and family!
Although I'm a youngest sibling I've always had a sense of motherly instinct ever since I was little. I enjoy making babies smile and playing with younger kids.
