When you walk into a room and a child/children smile and are excited to see you, I think that is the best feeling in the world. I am the not the type of 26 year old that likes to drink and party. I am very much a family person and I love being around my family. However, I had to move away from them to pursue my career in production. I miss them and my newborn nephew tremendously but I have been lucky enough to find two wonderful families that treat me like their own and who I baby sit for weekly. I truly enjoy being around children and I hope to find more families that are looking for a compassionate, fun, responsible caregiver. I am the type of caregiver that likes to be very hands on with children. I like to provide creative and fun activities for the children, allowing them to explore and use their imaginations.      Valid Driver's License: Yes  Has a Vehicle: Yes  Can Swim Well: Yes  Smoking Status: Non-Smoker  Comfortable with pets:   Languages spoken: English, English    My Nationality: Other  Background Check:   Eligible to work in the U.S.:   Civil Status: Single  Religion/Spiritual Practice:         Work Experience & Education Background   10 years experience, 5 references I am 26 years old and I have been baby-sitting since I was 12 years old. I have been a nanny during the summers to three boys ranging from 8 months old to 7 years old. I was a nanny for them three summers in a row. I have babysat for my twin cousins from the time they were babies until I moved away when they were 4 years old. I have three Godchildren ages 4 months-6 years old; all of whom I have babysat and cared for. I currently sit weekly for a family with a five year old girl and seven year old boy. I also baby-sit bi-weekly for a family with a 24 month old little boy. I love children and living in a different state than my cousins, nephew and Godchildren is hard. I have missed baby sitting and I am happy to have found two families that have become like my own. I hope to be able to sit for more families regularly. I truly enjoy spending time with children and I am compassionate and loving as well as responsible and mature.      Childcare experience within the following age groups: Newborn - 3 months, 3 - 12 months, 1 - 2 years, 2 - 5 years, 5 - 10 years, over 10 years of age, twins, triplets   Education/Training: Bachelor's Degree, CPR Training  I graduated from my high school in 1999.
