I am willing to travel 10-15 miles. I do have my own car and willing to do drop-offs and pick-ups as needed. I have 10+ years as a babysitter. That has always been my hobby as a kid to earn extra money babysitting my neighbors. I worked for them for 5 years. They had 3 children under the age of 6 when I first started. I have had numerous other babysitting jobs as the years went on. I love kids and can't wait to have some of my own. I am big on arts and crafts, and using kids' imagination. I love being outside in the fresh air exploring mother nature. I love teaching kids new things, seeing thier eyes light up when learning something new is so exciting.
