A little bit about me

I am a 35 yo mother of 2 but was never thought of as a "first time parent", due to child care that began as a big sister to twins, spending summers caring for my younger cousins to babysitting throughout my neighborhood. Never being complained about or nasty to a family. I understand the delicate and important balance of trust and assistance to a family.

About Me 💕🧸

Hi! My name is Serenity, and I’m 16 years old. I’m a caring, patient, and responsible person who genuinely loves being around kids. I enjoy babysitting because I love making children feel comfortable, happy, and cared for while their parents are away.

I’m great with keeping kids entertained through games, activities, movies, crafts, and other fun age-appropriate things. I’m also comfortable helping with simple meals, snacks, cleanup after activities, and keeping their space organized.

I understand that every child is different, so I always try my best to be patient, understanding, and attentive to their individual needs. I want parents to feel comfortable knowing their children are being treated with kindness and respect.

Babysitting is something I truly enjoy, and I’d love the opportunity to help families who need a reliable and caring sitter! 🩷🧸✨
