Hi! I’m a dependable, calm babysitter who believes kids do best with a mix of structure, patience, and a sense of humor (mine is dry; theirs is usually louder). I’ve cared for children of various ages and personalities—from sweet and shy to “why is it suddenly quiet?” I’m attentive, safety-focused, and genuinely enjoy spending time with kids. Whether that means helping with homework, playing games, reading stories, or guiding bedtime routines like a seasoned professional, I approach each task with care and consistency. I follow household routines closely and respect family preferences, because I know how important reliability is. Parents can expect clear communication, punctuality, and a steady, capable presence. Kids can expect kindness, fairness, and someone who listens—even during very detailed stories. If you’re looking for a sitter who’s responsible, patient, and comfortable handling both big feelings and everyday messes, I’d be happy to help!!
