About Ava

Experience: 8 yrs

Hi I am a fun, organized, and dependable graduate student who would love to work your family! I started working with kids when I was 14, which was 8 years ago now. I have experience in babysitting/nannying kids from ages 1-15, before and after care, student teaching, a bachelor's degree in education with a focus in child/adolescent mental health and I am currently getting my M. Ed in Clinical Mental Health Counseling hoping to continue to work with children in the future. One thing you should know about me is I am a fun and outgoing person and love to do any craft, activity, sport, etc your kid may love to do. I also am more than happy to help with pets, house cleaning, and meal prepping. I am dependent and reliable and really love working with kids! My skills include patience, organization, and communication. I am available to start work ASAP and can provide references if needed :)

Ava babysat my 3 kids for a number of summers. She’s amazing - incredibly responsible, punctual, and organized. She helped keep me organized with all the kids’ activities. My kids had a number of camps and sports during the summer, and she always got to my house on time, made sure the kids were fed and ready, and got them to their activity with all their things. I never had to worry with her. In fact, she was so organized, she helped me keep things straight, which was much appreciated. I highly recommend her! If she lived near me, I’d still be using her.
