Hi families! My name is Ivy, and I bring both heart and experience to the families I care for. I’m CPR certified and comfortable working with children of all ages, from toddlers to middle schoolers. I’ve worked as a substitute at a daycare for toddlers, volunteered in Thailand teaching English to kids, and currently serve as an after-school teacher, helping 1st–8th graders with homework and activities in a large group setting. These experiences have taught me patience, creativity, and how to keep kids both safe and engaged. I also love animals and have hands-on experience caring for pets, so furry family members are always welcome when I’m around. Whether it’s helping with homework, planning fun activities, or making sure your little ones feel cared for while you’re away, I strive to create a safe, supportive, and fun environment for each child.

Ivy did an excellent job caring for our five children, ranging from toddler to middle school age. She handled a busy household with patience, energy, and professionalism. The kids were happy and well cared for, and she managed snacks, activities, and homework support seamlessly. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such capable hands. She is dependable, warm, and attentive—definitely someone I would hire again and highly recommend to other families!
