James Madison University

I am the 3rd of 5 children, so I have grown up babysitting my younger siblings. In addition to caring for my own family, I have been caring for my neighbors' children since I was 12. Throughout my teenage years I worked at various day camps as a camp counselor and also volunteered at organizations such as Special Olympics, Habitat for Humanity, and Los Niños. In high school I would go the McLean Bible Church and care for mentally challenged children on Friday nights so their parents could enjoy a date or night off.

I have babysat children for as long as I could remember helping my family and friends take care of their children/my cousins, and I also worked at a Daycare Center for 3 years during high school, taking care of multiple children varying from 3 months old to 3 years old. I am a Senior at James Madison University majoring in Early Childhood Education and I am looking forward to being home for the summer to watch kids, playing new activities, doing arts and crafts, and going to different pools/playgrounds. :)

I have lived in Charlotte for a little over 3 years now! I am a 5th grade teacher in CMS and love working with children. I am out of school for the summer and I am available for babysitting. I am able to assist with school work as well if your child needs some tutoring over this summer. I am flexible with my schedule and look forward to hearing from families!

I am a graduate from JMU with a degree in Geographic Science: environmental sustainability, conservation, and development. I served in Peace Corps Cambodia for 3 years as an English teacher and trainer before moving to Nepal for disaster relief work. For the past 5 years I have worked in wilderness therapy programs and at Boys and Girls aid at a residential program to aid foster kids in social skills and schooling. I have been a caretaker/ nanny on and off since I was 14 years old. I am CPR/First Aid Certified, and am trained in non-violent crises intervention. I have experience with children and young adults ranging from ages 6 months-25 yrs old. I can help with homework and love engaging kids in as many outdoor activities as possible (bird watching, gardening, etc) and arts and crafts. I am very loyal, trustworthy, and caring, and can provide references upon request.

Hello! I am 26 years old and about to start my fourth year teaching fourth grade! I'm looking for part time babysitting jobs either in the evening or weekends.

I'm 24 years old, and I currently live in Washington, DC. I'm hoping to find a nice family in the DC area that I can live with when my lease expires in January 2011 in exchange for babysitting in the evenings and on the weekends. I graduated from James Madison University in 2008 and I currently work as a pharmaceutical sales rep in the DC area, so my schedule is pretty busy during the day. I am a responsible and dependable young woman with strong christian values. Since I grew up in a close Christian family and I'm the oldest of four, I have naturally grown up as a "mother's helper" and a role model to my brother and sisters. I've had experience caring for children of all ages from infants to preteens, and have repeatedly been told that I have a natural ability to bond with children. I think it's important to create a balance between being a friend and role model to kids, yet also being the "adult," earning respect, and establishing a learning environment in a fun way. One of my favorite memories was making "green eggs and ham" (literally) with 2 little girls I babysat for when I was in high school. When they came to my high school graduation, one of the little girls wrote me a letter and said she would never forget all the baking, reading, dress up, and games we played when she was younger and that I would always have a special place in her heart. I still keep in touch with a lot of the families whose children I have watched over the years, so I would be more than happy to provide you with multiple references. I want to be able to become a part of the family and build trust with the kids and the parents. Spending time with children brightens my day. I just love their positive outlook on life, and the fact that I can be a role model for them! Look forward to hearing from you!!
