A little bit about me

I've been babysitting since I was a young teen, starting with my 3 little brothers (they aren't too little anymore!). I began to babysit kids in my neighborhood and a little outside when i got into my older teen years and stopped once the pandemic hit to be extra cautious. I've been told by a few kids that I'm their favorite babysitter. I'm absolutely a kid at heart and definitely believe in allowing kids to use their imagination and creativity. I'm also a big fan of arts and crafts (I have an edible play dough recipe that's always a hit) and a big believer in playing hard (and sleeping hard later to let you rest, haha!). I adore kids, always have and love helping them grow and develop into their own beings. I have also worked at a vet in the past and can help with the pets as well. I'm a big fan of keeping the space I work a lot in neat, tidy, and organized (I love organizing). I am willing to work any hours and any days, this is truly my dream job and would love this opportunity.

A little bit about me

I love being a nanny because I enjoy helping children learn, grow, and reach new milestones. It’s incredibly rewarding to build strong relationships with families and create a safe, loving environment where children feel happy, supported, and encouraged to explore the world around them.

I have experience caring for infants and young children, including feeding, diaper changes, preparing bottles and meals, naps, playtime, reading, outdoor activities, and maintaining consistent daily routines. I also help encourage developmental milestones through age-appropriate activities.

My strengths include being patient, dependable, organized, and attentive. I communicate openly with parents, adapt to each family’s routines and parenting style, and always strive to provide reliable, nurturing care that gives families peace of mind.
