Meet Ashton

  • Speaks Spanish
  • Comfortable with pets

I have over 10 years of babysitter/nanny experience for families through sitter websites and recommendations. I was also a preschool assistant teacher for four years, caring for students in the two's, three's, and four's age groups within that time. I have a background in Speech Pathology and Communications, specifically looking into speech disorders and delays in children. I also have experience working for the Epilepsy Foundation (now known as the Epilepsy Institute) and aiding their Department of Education's child interactive group. As a sitter, I have been responsible for tasks that include but are not limited to: pick up from school, homework help, chaperoning play dates, accompanying to appointments and other after-school activities, bath time and bedtime routines, light housekeeping, light cooking, laundry and running household errands. Also, just having a fun and educational time with the children I work with! I currently work for a family M-F until 1pm.
