Hello! My name is Lauren and I am 34 years old and started babysitting/taking care of children when I was 14. I have worked in all types of settings from traditional day care centers to private nanny and traditional evening babysitting jobs. I am child/infant CPR/First Aid certified. I like to follow parents existing routines and rules as closely as possible, while still making the time fun. I love taking kids outside, playing games and teaching them new things. Over the past few years I have multiple families that I regularly care for their children. This includes everything from running children to doctor’s appointments, providing overnight care, school pickup/drop off, attending school activities while parents are working/out of town, along with carpool duties for activities. I am also comfortable with children having play-dates while I’m watching them – I truly want them to have a good time (while staying safe and following the parent’s rules!). *References available upon request*
