If you’re looking for someone dependable who truly enjoys spending time with kids, I’d be excited to be that person for your family!

I have over 5 years of childcare experience, working with children ranging from newborns to age 13. Throughout high school and into college, I’ve babysat for multiple families in my hometown, building a strong reputation as dependable, patient, and fun. My responsibilities have included preparing meals, organizing playtime and activities, helping with homework, and keeping children on safe routines.

Currently, I’m a student at Howard University, majoring in Psychology with a focus on children and development. My academic background has strengthened my understanding of child behavior, communication, and emotional needs, which I apply when babysitting. In addition, my leadership roles in school and community service projects have taught me responsibility, creativity, and how to keep kids engaged in safe, enjoyable ways.

I combine hands-on childcare experience with an academic foundation in child psychology, making me well-prepared to provide a nurturing and reliable babysitting service.

Not really a summary because i don’t vape, no i don’t own a car because legally im only 15, about to turn 16 in a couple of months so i can’t, im a highschool student and i have babysat for over 5 years, based on having siblings , i attend Paul Laurence Dunbar highschool in washington dc, i have a great gpa of 3.5, all grades and im very gentle with kids. As far as training im home trained based on having siblings and having to care for them as their 2nd mother and providing them with stuff as they grow, i’ve already had a experience with taking care of kids and it’s a piece of cake. I’m gentle and very understanding and calming. So i feel as though i can use this ability to contain a job of babysitting for money, because i put in good deeds and just like helping one another and kids.

Top 10 Tips For Hiring A Dog Walker

Follow these handy tips for hiring a dog walker so you know your pup is in safe, reliable hands.

1. Check experience

Look for walkers who have worked with dogs of similar size, breed, and temperament.

2. Verify credentials

Ask about pet first aid/CPR certification and whether they’re insured and bonded.

3. Request references

Speak to past or current clients for honest feedback.

4. Meet in person

Arrange a meet-and-greet to see how your dog responds to them.

5. Discuss routines

Ensure they can stick to your dog’s feeding, walking, and medication schedule.

Confirm their backup plan in case they’re sick or unavailable.

8. Look for communication

Choose someone who provides updates, photos, or reports after walks.

Start with a short session to assess how your dog and the walker get along.
