I started babysitting when I was in high school, providing all-day care for three children during summer and school breaks. While in college I babysat whenever I could, keeping newborns and siblings. I am a mom to two teens so I have experience with all ages. On Sundays I work in the nursery at St. Andrew's, working mainly with younger children. I have a BS in early/middle education and am employed in NEISD. I am current on First-Aid and CPR/AED certifications. I am good at building trust quickly with little ones and making "friends" with older ones while maintaining rules and boundaries. I provide light housekeeping as time allows, but caring for the children is top priority. I play games, read books, watch a movie, attempt creative activities and go outside to play if weather permits. I have been background checked through NEISD.
