A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Jaiden and I’m a certified babysitter with years of hands-on experience caring for children of all ages — from newborns to school-aged kids. I’ve helped raise my three younger siblings, two of whom have special needs, so I’m confident in providing patient, attentive care in busy or unique family situations.

I’ve also been a church camp counselor for three summers, worked with toddler through preteen groups, and led cheer camps for younger kids as a cheer captain. I’m reliable, energetic, and passionate about creating safe, fun environments where kids can learn, play, and feel comfortable.

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

When I regularly babysat my three younger siblings, two of whom are on the autism spectrum and one with ADHD. I’ve also worked as a church camp counselor for toddlers to preteens, and I’ve babysat children from infants to elementary age for other families. These experiences helped me learn how to manage different behaviors, create structure, and stay calm in high-energy or emotional situations.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love spending quality time with kids doing whatever makes them happy! Whether it’s going to the park, playing with toys, doing arts and crafts, reading books, or just watching a fun movie together, I’m all in. I especially enjoy spending time with little girls — we can do hair, play dress-up, or just have a fun time being creative. I’m always up for outdoor time too, like playing games or just getting some fresh air!

The most important part about being a nanny...

To me, the most important part of being a nanny is building trust — with the kids and with the parents. Children need to feel safe, loved, and supported, especially when they’re away from their parents. I always try to be that calm and fun presence who they can look forward to seeing, and someone parents feel confident leaving their little ones with.

My experience with special needs children...

I have several years of hands-on experience caring for children with special needs, including my own younger siblings — two of whom are on the autism spectrum and one who has ADHD. I’ve learned how to be patient, understanding, and flexible in any situation. I’ve worked with toddlers to older kids, and I know how to communicate in ways that make them feel safe, supported, and seen. I’m also used to high-energy environments and creating a calm space when needed.

The most important part about being a nanny...

One of my favorite moments was at a church camp where I was a counselor. I was helping a very shy little girl who didn’t want to join the group activities. We ended up making friendship bracelets together, and by the end of the day, she was laughing and playing with the rest of the kids. Watching her come out of her shell reminded me how powerful patience and kindness can be.
