A little bit about me

Hello parents, nice to meet you! I moved to Utah in February 2024, and I'm looking forward to meeting new families!

My expeditious introduction to child care has been the highlight of my work experience over the last 5 years. I loved working in daycare (18 months) and babysitting (4 years) very much.

When I watch children, I strive to be patient and supportive, while encouraging age-appropriate standards for discipline, emotional regulation, and social skills. Different personalities and temperaments are not inconvenient for me. I am ready and willing to help with any household chores you may need a hand with.

My approach is educated by the play-based High Scope Curriculum for infants and toddlers. My base rate is $16/hour, plus $3-4 if cooking/cleaning is needed. I will be renewing my CPR first aid certification by June 2026.

Thank you for your consideration!
