I have about three years of babysitting experience, and I worked as a full-time nanny last summer. I’ve babysat a lot for different families, taken kids to activities, and handled daily routines. I also serve at my church with babies and little kids, which has given me even more hands-on experience. I’m dependable, patient, and I truly love working with children.

I'm currently a Junior student in High School, however I’ve worked with children in different settings, from summer camps to parties, and I’ve learned how to balance fun with responsibility. In my job with Buster da Clown and Friends, I got to dress up in character costumes, interact with kids, and help serve snacks. As a Junior Camp Counselor with the KRoussaw Foundation, I helped with arts and crafts, supervised games, and joined kids on field trips.
