Hi! I am a freshman cheerleader in high school seeking to make a little extra cash for savings and more financial freedom. I am very responsible and love working with smaller children. Though I don’t have much experience in babysitting officially, I’ve babysat my little sister and little cousins. This is a job I want to get into and believe I can perform well. I am energetic, positive, and reliable. I can help with light housekeeping and homework if needed. My passions are running, cheerleading, and helping others. I'm able to provide a supervised, safe, and stable environment for your little ones.
