A little bit about me

I'm a mature, caring and reliable person with a natural love for children. I have hands-on experience caring for children so I understand the needs of different ages, from feeding and bathing to homework, playtime and bedtime routines.
I'm patient, trustworthy and very respectful of family rules and routines. I enjoy creative activities like drawing, reading stories and making playtime fun while keeping children safe. I’m playful and easy to trust, with a real gift for making kids feel safe, seen and excited to spend time with me.
I have eight years of hands-on experience caring for children from infancy through the pre-teen years. I've been responsible for:
Preparing meals and snacks
Helping with homework and reading
Bathing and bedtime routines
Organizing creative play and activities
Keeping children safe and engaged
Light tidying after playtime and meals
I'm comfortable caring for children of different ages and needs and I take pride in being dependable, patient and attentive.

Hi, my name is Veronica, a very reliable, communicative and experienced child care provider. I am a certified personal support worker who decided to go into private childcare because of the fulfillment I experience in this particular field.

I do housekeeping duties and meal preps alongside caring for the kids, I look forward to working for an amazing family in Ottawa. Thank you.
