A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Kota, and I am a responsible, caring, and dependable individual with a genuine love for working with children. I enjoy creating a fun, safe, and positive environment where kids can feel comfortable, supported, and engaged. I’m patient, attentive, and naturally nurturing, and I always strive to build strong, trusting relationships with both children and parents.

I have a strong sense of responsibility and take pride in being reliable and organized. Whether it’s helping with daily routines, keeping children entertained with creative activities, or simply being someone they can feel safe around, I am committed to providing the best care possible. I also love spending time outdoors, being active, and finding ways to make everyday moments fun and meaningful.

I would love the opportunity to support your family and be someone you can trust with your children’s care.

A little bit about me

Hello! I’m Stevie! I’m opening my home to families who need childcare. I don’t have transportation because my husband works from dawn until nightfall everyday. I’m experienced with all ages but mostly younger children. I am patient, attentive, nurturing, and kind. I have a 3yo boy who loves company of any age. He’s very sweet. We have a medium sized dog who’s very friendly and gentle with kids. My goal is to babysit for multiple families in need and eventually start a small at home daycare business. I have reasonable rates and hours and can do last minute sittings.

I'm the right one to make your family feel like they are the only ones that matters. I'll cook,clean,read,play games,and most of all make you happy.
Anyone who knows me well enough to tell you that I love kids ,cats,and dogs. For some reason they love me too. Most kids like me because of my height they think I'm a kid and especially when I get to playing with them I think I have just as much fun as they do. If not jmore
