A little bit about me

Hi there my name is Trish!

Nurturing young minds is more than a job for me; it's a genuine passion. My previous babysitting experiences solidified my desire to positively impact children's lives, and I have two years of experience caring for children of all ages. I am patient, creative, and approachable. I communicate with parents through regular updates via text or phone calls. While I am comfortable enforcing household rules, I prefer a collaborative approach. I enjoy playing outdoor sports, board games, puzzles, and educational games with children. I am comfortable caring for two child at a time. My skills include cooking, meal preparation, and light housekeeping. I would love to bring my loud and crazy energy and enthusiasm to your family.

I don't smoke or drink either.

Also I would like to mention that I am a follower of Jesus, my faith is very important to me

I can't wait to work and to live your kids

A little bit about me

I have had seven years of child experience. I started babysitting when I was 12 for a family of five and have branched out to different families in my church and in the community around us. I recently had a job at a daycare where I was CPR certified and first aid certified. I have seven siblings, me being the oldest at 19 and the youngest at just over 15 months. I love children and being around them. I am going to Cornerstone University for a degree for early childhood and am hoping to teach somewhere from preschool to second grade. I would love something more full time during the summer.
