A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Joy, an 18-year-old freshman at the University of South Carolina. I have over 5 years of experience babysitting children from 6 months to 12 years old, and I’ve also worked in a healthcare facility as a dietary aide in an assisted living community. I’m a nursing major, CPR certified, and have completed several healthcare courses, so safety and care are always priorities for me. I love engaging kids with crafts, reading, outdoor activities, and fun learning games. I’m also open to helping with light housework, preparing simple meals, and driving children to school, practices, or extracurriculars. I’m responsible, patient, and committed to creating a positive, supportive environment for every child. I’d love the opportunity to work with your family!

I love incorporating creative projects such as watercolor painting, simple crafts, sticker art, and nature-based art activities. I also enjoy educational games and helping with schoolwork or tutoring when needed. Whether it's imaginative play, arts and crafts, or outdoor adventures, I enjoy finding engaging activities that are both fun and enriching for kids.
