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.
Hi! I’m Debbie, and I’m 19 years old. While I haven’t had a formal babysitting job yet, I have plenty of hands on experience caring for children. I used to regularly babysit my two nieces, who are 4 and 1 years old, and I’ve also helped care for my younger sisters, who are now 16 and 12. In addition, my mom fosters children, so I’ve spent a lot of time helping out with childcare and supporting kids of different ages. I’m responsible, patient, and really enjoy being around children!
