About Dorothy
Experience: 5 yrs
Hello there! I have been taking care of little ones since 1990, being the oldest girl in a family of seven children and getting my first babysitting job at the age of 13. Multiple children are no problem for me--I actually kind of enjoy the chaos. On the other hand, I am very detailed-oriented, and safety is my top priority for young people in my charge. I homeschooled for 5 years, so I have lots of experience helping with schoolwork and coming up with fun field trips. With a background in theatre performance, I am great at improvisation and I love to read and make up my own stories. I am not a big fan of electronic babysitters like TVI think most kids need more time to run around, go outside, exercise their creativity muscles and get curious about their world.
