Hi! I am a 25 year old living in Salem, Oregon! I have been a middle school teacher for the past year, and am currently re-entering school to earn my elementary school endorsement to change grade levels! Prior to teaching, I worked at the Boys and Girls Club in Durango, Colorado, working with students from kindergarten to high school. I have experience babysitting for children birth to middle school, taking care of family members and other children in the neighborhood I grew up in. I am comfortable working with kids of all ages, and we always find ways to have fun! What I do when caregiving is generally driven by the individuals that I am taking care of and their guardians! My goal is that everyone has a good time and is healthy and safe. I currently have two cats and grew up with a dog. I am more than Read more comfortable looking after your furry friends while I am at your home. I always pick up after myself and the individuals I am looking after, and am happy to do more (laundry, more cleaning, errands, etc...) with prior discussion! I am CPR certified.
