Hi! Hi! I’m a recent graduate from Pepperdine University, where I earned my degree in Biology and competed for the Division I Swim & Dive team. I’ve recently been selected to attend Navy Flight School starting this July, and in the meantime, I’d love to offer babysitting services before I leave. With 7 years of babysitting experience for children of all ages, I’m CPR and First Aid certified and previously worked as a lifeguard for 4 years. I also have 4 years of experience as a swim coach and have been teaching private swim lessons for 5 years. I’m passionate about working with kids and love creating a safe, active, and fun environment for them to learn and grow. I’d be happy to help with babysitting, swim lessons, or both—and I look forward to meeting your family soon!
