A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Jade.
I've had the opportunity to babysit children for the past 3 to 4 years, ages 5 months-11 years old and while it started as something I did occasionally, I'm now looking to take on more consistent opportunities. I am currently CPR and First Aid certified, ensuring safety is always a top priority. I was introduced to childcare through my mom, who has been a professional nanny for over 10 years. On her days off, some of the families she worked with would reach out to me when they needed a sitter and I was always excited to step in! I enjoy engaging children in learning activities, and other fun extracurriculars. I truly enjoy what I do. Thank you for taking the time to read my bio. I hope to hear from you soon!
