I love working with children; being able to connect with families and better my knowledge of child development.

My name is Lisa. I started babysitting In high school after moving to the USA and a licenced care giver in Pennsylvania while in college . Babysitting was the first step I took towards learning about my new home in the United States. Working with/for a family was a major factor as why I became a biology and child psychology. My dream was to become a behavior analyst for Autisic children. I worked as both a private care companion and as memory care activities coordinator in a nursing home. However post graduation I began working as a logistics care coordinator for an emergency management group . This position focused and nurtured mypassion in working with both adults and children in a highly stressful in environment. Outside of my profession I still enjoy babysitting children and being a care companion for the elderly. I believe there is something magical in seeing the world from children eyes or the life stories of an elder.

Hello there, my name is Natalya Byrd. I have been in and out of childcare for about five years now. After graduating high school I found a passion working with kids during Covid people around my neighborhood would ask for a babysitter, I even became a nanny at one point. When I went to school, I started studying behavioral science now I have graduated with my associates degree. After that, I decided to work in daycare’s specializing in behavior and I loved it. Right now I’m looking to take a little break from daycare’s. The reason why I love working with children is because you can guide them on the right path. What do I mean by that? If they make a wrong decision, I can explain to them why it was bad and show them a different route next time. I can teach them new things they probably didn’t know before.

Hi! My name is Makayla, I’m 22 years old, and caring for children has always been something that comes natural to me and loved. In high school, I took childhood development classes that I genuinely enjoyed, and I’ve been babysitting neighborhood kids for as long as I can remember. I loved being the person families could count on, whether it was helping with homework, creating fun activities, or simply making sure their children felt safe and happy. I recently graduated from Paul Mitchell’s esthetics program, and I’m CPR certified. I also have my own car, so transportation is never an issue. Even though I’m an only child, I grew up surrounded by younger cousins who I adored taking care of, which helped build my patience, creativity, and love for kids even more. One of my biggest future goals is to become a great mother one day, and working with children is something that truly fulfills me. I would love the chance to support your family and provide a caring, dependable, and fun environment for your little ones.
