I genuinely enjoy being a sitter because I find great fulfillment in helping children grow, learn, and feel safe. Watching them discover the world around them and supporting their emotional and physical development is incredibly rewarding. I take pride in offering a nurturing environment where children feel loved and secure, and where parents can have peace of mind while they’re away. I am currently working towards my degree to become a Registered Nurse in the NICU department, so I have a strong understanding of health and medical care for children. I also have hands-on experience in childcare, having worked at Oakwood University’s childcare facility, where I provided care for children of varying ages. This experience taught me the importance of patience, responsibility, and being alert to the needs of every child. I am fully certified in multiple areas to ensure the safety and well-being of children: • Child Abuse and Neglect Prevention • Basic First Aid and CPR • Appropriate Precautions in Transporting Children • Prevention of Shaken Baby Syndrome and Abusive Head Trauma • Building and Physical Premises Safety • Prevention and Response to Emergencies Due to Food and Allergic Reactions • SIDS Prevention and Safe Sleep Practices • Administration of Medication Additionally, I have an up-to-date background check through the state of Alabama, so you can trust that I meet all necessary safety requirements. I am committed to providing exceptional care and being a positive influence on the children I care for. Your child’s safety, development, and happiness are my top priorities.
