I have been babysitting for eight years. All though I value people of all ages, I especially love working with children because they are so refreshing, and fun. I currently live in Ohio where I watch over two wonderful, twin girls (3 years old), and their amazing neighbors (a 3 year old boy and a 7 year old girl). I love them very much. Besides babysitting, I spend a lot of my time in plays and musicals. I am interested in moving to New York City (or somewhere near there) this summer in order to get more theatre training, before I head off to school next year to continue work in theatre performance. I am looking for a live-in, full time babysitting position to keep up a balance of work and training. When I babysit, I focus strictly on your kiddos. I am very good at understanding children as individuals, which allows me to take care of them in a caring, healthy and creative environment. Also, I keep my phone on me just in case you need to reach me, or if I need to reach you- otherwise the phone typically stays in my pocket. If the children are content, and do not need all of my attention, I clean. Just like children, I love pets, too and have experience taking care of them. I thrive in creative problem solving, playing pretend, and talking with children of all ages and personalities. If you are interested, I'd love to talk.      Valid Driver's License: Yes  Has a Vehicle: No  Can Swim Well: Yes  Smoking Status: Non-Smoker  Comfortable with pets: Yes  Languages spoken: English, English, French    My Nationality: American  Background Check: Willing to obtain  Eligible to work in the U.S.: Yes  Civil Status: Single  Religion/Spiritual Practice: Methodist        Work Experience & Education Background   8 years experience, 0 references The youngest I have babysat is a 4 month old and the oldest I have babysat is an 11 year-old. I typically babysit 2 to 4 kids at a time. There is a lovely set of twins I take care of, and one of them has a brain tumor. She is an inspiring, sweet, incredible fighter and because of her situation, I am very capable of working with medical problems. I trust myself to feed her through a tube in her stomach, and give her the correct dosages of her meds at the right times. I am also very comfortable driving kids.
