A little bit about me

Nice to meet you! I’m Zoe and I offer a wide range of services according to the needs of both the kids and parents. From playing with the kids, to helping with homework or brain stimulative activities to housekeeping when needed, to meal prepping, i am ready to help!
I understand the nature of my job revolves around trusting me with your child and letting me in your home, which is your private sanctuary so i try my very best to not overstep boundaries. I’m very passionate about what i do and have genuine love for childcare. With about 3.5 years experience, I have learned a lot which i believe makes me amazing at childcare as well.
My availability is flexible be it an emergency call in or a date night or super long hours, i’m happy to help. Do not hesitate to reach out, thank you!

A little bit about me

Hi! I’m the kind of babysitter who can turn a regular day into an adventure—think blanket forts, silly games, and stories with voices. I love working with kids and plan to do it long-term, so babysitting is something I take seriously… even when we’re being goofy! I always make sure things are safe, calm, and cleaned up before you get back—yes, even the fort mess.

I’ll be living in Bridgewater for the summer after falling in love with Winnipeg last year, and I’m excited to bring my energy and fun-loving spirit to your family!
