"Jeffanie really and truly loved my children as her own. Her joy to spend time with them was evident every day she was here. She was such a great caregiver, starting when my youngest was 18 months. She was also with us when my son was an infant. He had some feeding complications and Jeffanie followed every instruction to the letter to make sure the little man got what he needed. She even participated in some Early Intervention Services appointments to make sure she provided the best care possible. Jeffanie stopped working with us because my son's needs became so great that my husband needed to be home full time. We were devastated to see her go and we still plan on seeing her when we can. She was great about doing light housework, the kids laundry, and making lunch and dinner for them. Sometimes she would pick fun projects around the house while my son was napping and my daughter was at school. We miss her!"

A little bit about me

My name is Becka and I'm 34 years old, mom of a soon to be 4 year old boy. I've been a babysitter/nanny/attendant since 2015. The family I've been an attendant for I've been with since Aug of 2016. I was also watching littles ages 1-3 in my home for a few people in my neighborhood from Aug 2021- June 2023. I recently took a short break from that because I fractured my foot but should be back to full speed in September :)

I also have experience as a substitute teacher (Aug 2009- Dec 2011) with an Associate of Arts in Elementary Education.

I have my own transportation and a clean driving record. I do not smoke. I would prefer to watch littles in my own home part time but do not mind doing it in yours. My fee for babysitting in my home is $10/hr, in your home $13/hr. Looking ideally for a family in need of part time care.

I have 3 dogs and a cat so our home is pet friendly. All animals are on flea/tick prevention and up to date on shots

I can offer references upon request :)
