About Tess
Experience: 7 yrs
Hi! I am currently a rising senior at the University of Pittsburgh where I study Psychology and American History. I am very passionate about working with children and hope to eventually go into graduate school under that field. When it comes to babysitting, I am very experienced. I started babysitting in the fifth grade and have grown up helping my parents take care of my younger siblings. Throughout Junior and High School, I spent most of my summer working as a babysitter and a camp counselor. I am currently employed as a nursery school teacher through Carson Valley Children's Aid. This organization required me to become CPR certified and gave me experience working with many different age groups. I am confident that I can provide a safe, stable, and fun environment for many different children. I am comfortable doing other household tasks as requested. I look forward to meeting you soon!

Tess has been babysitting for our family on a regular basis for about 15 months. When she started with us, we had a 6-month old and have since added another infant to our family. She provided engaging and developmentally-appropriate activities for our (now) toddler, including regular walks and visits to the neighborhood parks. Tess also helped as our son transitioned to solid foods; she's great at encouraging him to try new foods, including fruits and veggies. Overall, Tess has been an excellent fit. Due to a schedule change, she is no longer able to continue working for us regularly. We will certainly call on her for date nights and other occasional needs.
