A little bit about me

Hi! I'm an engineering student on leave until September looking to make a little money before I go back to school. I have lots of experience babysitting under a variety of circumstances, and I pride myself on being a safe but fun sitter. I love kids and I approach every job with compassion, patience, and excitement. Although I am not CPR certified I do hold multiple medical certifications, and my experience working in medical facilities has taught me exactly what to do during any medical emergency. I'm happy to connect you with parents I've worked for in the past, and please message me for any questions! P.S. that's my mom and I in the profile picture haha!

A little bit about me

With 3+ years of childcare experience, I create a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for children from newborns to school aged. I believe in learning through play and use arts and crafts, sensory activities, and outdoor exploration to support imagination, development, and emotional growth.
Currently pursuing a psychology degree to become an art therapist, I’m passionate about helping children express themselves in healthy, creative ways. I value open communication with both kids and parents and respond with empathy, patience, and care.
Known for being responsible, reliable, and adaptable, I help with homework, routines, organization, and positive habits. I also manage light household tasks to keep things calm and tidy. I love supporting children as they explore their interests, build confidence, and feel safe coming to me for guidance while also providing loving care for pets.

A little bit about me

I’m a recent college graduate with a Bachelor’s in Africana Studies and minor in law in Philosophy, however my passion has always been preparing the youth for the future. With over 10+ years of personal experience with and teaching my own classes part-time, child care comes second nature to me. I am available throughout the week for after-school enrichment and on the weekends for babysitting opportunities. I am CPR and First aid certified with experience in children of all ages especially with developmental and intellectual disabilities. I am exceptionally skilled in meal prep, diaper changes, and sleep schedules/strategies. I am creative, a listener, communicator, and patient around the spectrum of kiddos. Please feel free to reach out to me to set up a call!

A little bit about me

I started babysitting at the age of 17, initially caring for the children of family friends. What began as a simple way to help out quickly grew into a true passion for childcare. Over the past seven years, I’ve gained hands on experience with children ranging from newborns to pre teens in various home settings.I’m originally from Haiti and moved to the US at the age of 10, where I quickly adapted to a new environment and began to develop a deep appreciation for helping others. I’m currently completing my master’s in social work, with the goal of continuing to develop my skills and better serve children of all age groups. My years of experience working with kids have inspired me to pursue a career in social work, where I can make a lasting, positive impact on their lives. I’m passionate about supporting children’s growth, development, and well-being, and I’m excited to further my ability to serve them in a meaningful way.
