I'm a 21-year-old college student who is looking for a job I'll love. I'm going to finish up school this year at Dmacc majoring in Exercise science. I took last year off of school to be a full time nanny to two young boys 2 and 4 years old. I have always loved working with children since as long as I can remember. My mother had an at home daycare where I helped out, I also have had lots of babysitting jobs from kids ages 2 months to 12 years old. I'm willing to feed, bathe, tutor, potty train, and travel to new places with the kids I am sadly allergic to cats so working in a home that has one will not work for me but any other pets are fine!

Kirsten was insightful and creative with my grandchildren’s day. She staged a virtual movie theater in the living room because my tv went out. They laid on their backs as she held up a colorful picture book to read. Very cosy! She also took them to the library and pool, so it was a fun and varied day.
