A little bit about me
Hello!! I’m a teenager, 14 years old, trying to find a part time job time to time, helping parents care for children! I’m considered pretty good with kids, I adore them, but I do not have much experience with really young children, which is why I want to become a babysitter to get more experience with children! I want to learn more about how different each child is like, helping me learn and understand from each different child! I am pretty fun if I say so myself, but I am pretty shy! I’m a girl with lots of interests, and it would be so fun to teach children my interests! I’m really into art, dancing, singing/karaoke, anime, and some sports!

A little bit about me
Hi, my name is Santa! I’m a dedicated, nurturing caregiver and full-time mom with years of hands-on experience caring for children of all ages. Parenting has given me a deep understanding of patience, emotional safety, structure, and fun—because kids need all four (sometimes at the same time).
I bring a calm, attentive, and loving presence, while also knowing how to keep routines running smoothly—from meals and homework to playtime and bedtime. My background as a massage therapist has strengthened my ability to read body language, regulate energy, and create a grounded, soothing environment for children.
Safety, communication, and trust are my top priorities. I care for every child as if they were my own and value working closely with families to support their needs and values.
I’d be honored to support your family. 💛
