I have a Bachelor’s degree in Therapeutic Recreation. I was working as a Recreation Therapist at a retirement community with seniors with dementia. I have made a switch into Sales recently. I have previous experience with children working at a summer camp for 3 years, working at a daycare and plenty of babysitting and nannying experience. I am currently looking for a part time, occasional babysitting as I miss working with children. I am fun, outgoing and truly a kid at heart which makes it really easy to make connections with children of all ages. I am patient and caring with children and able to adapt my approach based on each child’s needs. Your kids will have a blast with me as their babysitter! I was recently laid off in a mass termination as they restructured and I am now making a career change, however, it won’t be for another few months. Currently, can be flexible for short term.
