I started babysitting when I was 16 years old and I love it, especially now that I have a baby of my own. My partner works remote and I currently won't have a job so we are able to take care of our 14-month-old boy. I would love to care for another family who would love to have their child be around mine:)

I am a LVN who is looking to take care of infants and on. I have experience with special needs children. I know how hard it is to find a routine baby sitter for infants until potty trained. I want to work close to home and help out other moms transitioning from home to job or just a mom who could use some quiet time.
