A little bit about me

Hey there! My name is Tessa Riggs. I have three years of childcare instruction experience. I am CPR, AED, first aid certified, and lifeguard certified. In addition, I also hold certification to teach swim lessons through the red cross. In recent years nearly all of my jobs have surrounded children, including working in a nursery and teaching swim lessons to kiddos of all ages. Aside from childcare, I am more than willing to assist in daily household chores, potty training, homework, and tutoring.
Please reach out if there are any questions! I'd be more than happy to relay social media and references!

A little bit about me

With eight years of paid experience in childcare and a background as an eldest sister of 4, I have developed a genuine love for nurturing and supporting children's growth. I especially enjoy taking kids on day trips to explore and learn about the world around them, creating fun and memorable experiences. I also love bringing hands-on activities that encourage learning through play, helping children stay engaged and curious. I travel using public transit, which allows me to be reliable and punctual while caring for the environment. I have full availability and am excited to offer my time, energy, and passion to support your family's childcare needs.

A little bit about me

I’m a nurturing, creative mom and professional caregiver who truly enjoys supporting families during this fleeting stage of childhood. Parent of a 14‑year‑old daughter heading into high school, which has deepened my appreciation for how fast these years pass.
I bring over 20 years of experience as a Gerontologist in care‑centered leadership roles, grounded in patience, empathy, safety, and trust. At this point in my life, I’m thoughtfully exploring what my next chapter of purpose will be, and in the meantime I’m intentionally doing work I love, hands‑on caregiving.
As a babysitter, I offer a calm, attentive, and playful presence. I enjoy reading, imaginative play, light crafts, conversation, and supporting routines while honoring each family’s values. I’m reliable, communicative, and emotionally aware. If you have pets, that’s a plus, I’m very comfortable with furry family members.
My goal is to care for your child with warmth and intention, and to give you genuine peace of mind.
