A little bit about me

Hi! I'm a responsible, dependable caregiver with over 10 years of experience working with children in both home and daycare environments. I'm currently available for evening and weekend babysitting, and I'm looking to connect with a few consistent families to build strong, trusting relationships.

I love spending time outdoors, doing arts and crafts, reading stories, and exploring fun science and nature activities—especially in the summer! I always aim to create a safe, fun, and educational environment for the kids I care for. I’m also comfortable cooking and helping out with light housekeeping as needed.

I’ve been certified in CPR and First Aid in the past and am more than willing to recertify if needed to meet your family's requirements.

Looking forward to meeting a great family to grow with!

A little bit about me

Hi! I have a few years of experience working in a hospital caring for adults, which has taught me the importance of patience, empathy, and staying calm and attentive in any situation. While I’ve loved that work, I’m excited to shift my focus to working with children and supporting families. I truly enjoy building connections, keeping kids engaged, and providing a safe, caring environment they can thrive in.
