"Aurora is incredibly sweet, thoughtful, and patient when dealing with children of all ages. She has a lot of experience with many different children and ages and personalities, and she is not easily overwhelmed or flustered. Aurora is so easy to work with and get along with. My only complaint is that she doesn’t live near us anymore, but our loss is your gain!"

A little bit about me

From a young age, I've felt drawn to a career caring for children. I have professional and personal experience caring for kids of all ages, and I prefer a friendly and creative approach when doing so. I love engaging kids with things such as board games, arts and crafts, my favorite PG movies, and fun nature activities like going to the park or on a walk! In addition, I'm comfortable helping out with cooking, meal prep, errands, and any household chores you need done. I've completed Child Development Coursework, and am Red Cross certified in Adult, Child, and Infant First Aid, CPR, and AED. On our first day together, I'd like to consult about your preferred methods of communication and how you'd like me to approach any conflict or discipline in your household. I'm excited to learn more about your family and discuss how I can be a positive influence in your child's life!

A little bit about me

My life's mission is simple yet profound: to love and care for as many people as possible. This driving purpose shapes every interaction I have, whether I'm comforting a crying child, spending quality time with a lonely senior, or simply ensuring a pet feels secure while their family is away. I believe that genuine care and compassion can make a meaningful difference in people's lives, and I'm honored to be trusted with that responsibility.
I approach each caregiving opportunity not just as a job, but as a chance to positively impact someone's day, week, or life. Your family's well-being becomes my priority, and I'm committed to providing the highest quality care with warmth, professionalism, and genuine heart.
