I love being a sitter because being around children truly makes my heart happy. I enjoy teaching them new things, learning with them, and watching them grow. Seeing children feel safe, happy, and at peace brings me so much joy. I love creating a peaceful, loving, and positive environment where they can feel comfortable and be themselves. Working with people is something I genuinely enjoy, and I’m a very social, happy, and caring person who loves being present and involved. I have over 7 years of experience babysitting children in their homes, caring for them in a safe and nurturing environment. In addition, I have more than 10 years of experience working with older women with Alzheimer’s, which has strengthened my patience, compassion, and caregiving skills. I am currently working toward becoming an educator, inspired by my love for children and learning alongside my daughter. Active play and games • Read more Talking, teaching, and learning with children • Feeding, bottle-feeding, snack times, and meal routines • Showering/bathing, diaper changing, and bedtime routines • Reading books, singing songs, and teaching ABCs (limited screen time) • Taking children on walks and enjoying fresh air • Supporting children during social gatherings • Being punctual and arriving early • Creating a calm, happy, and safe home environment • Caring for children during special moments and important days.
