A little bit about me
I am patient, trustworthy, and comfortable taking responsibility. I enjoy spending time with children and would be happy to help with age-appropriate activities, keeping them entertained, preparing simple meals or snacks, and helping maintain a safe and positive environment. I understand the importance of being attentive, following parents’ instructions, and making sure children are cared for properly.
I am eager to gain work experience, learn new skills, and show that I can be someone a family can depend on. I take my responsibilities seriously and would treat every child with kindness, patience, and respect.

A little bit about me
For reference, I am a liscenced CNA (Certified Nurse Aide, liscense number CNA[phone number hidden]). I am also CPR/BLS certified, have a drivers license and my own vehicle. As of the last three or four years, I have been working with caring for elders. My goals have shifted to wanting to work more with kids, and apply my skills as a CNA to that demographic.
Before I was a CNA, I was a babysitter for family friends and acquaintances, and I can provide numbers for references. I worked with children of all ages, including infants who were 3 months and up. Changing, burping, soothing, and the messy parts of childcare is nothing to me.
In addition to watching the kids, I can also do light housekeeping like dishes, wiping surfaces, and doing the laundry. If you are outside of the house, I will provide updates by text in three hour increments.. Looking forward to hearing from you!
