Hi guys! My name is Valerie. I am 18 and have been babysitting for a few years now. I worked at my school daycare for 4 years and also worked at a daycare for 1 year. I am certified with my CDA and have 4 years of childcare experience. I also have my DCF.

From a young age, I’ve always been drawn to caring for others, especially children. Growing up, I was often the responsible one, looking after younger siblings or neighbors, and it became clear that nurturing and supporting children was something I was passionate about. This early experience naturally led me to become a caregiver, where I’ve found deep fulfillment in helping children grow and learn. What I love most about my job is witnessing the incredible capacity of young minds to absorb information and develop their own understanding of the world. My three-year-old son, for example, regularly impresses me with his growing knowledge, such as recognizing that a caterpillar turns into a butterfly. Moments like these remind me how impactful our roles as caregivers can be. At home, I’ve cultivated a learning environment filled with diverse animals—from cats and dogs to guinea pigs, bearded dragons, snakes, and even insects. This has not only taught my son empathy and curiosity but has also inspired creative ways to engage him in learning. We regularly work on his alphabet and counting, making learning fun and interactive through everyday activities. In addition, we take regular trips to the park and even Gatorland, where we explore nature and continue to expand his understanding of the world around him. I believe what makes me good at what I do is my combination of hands-on experience and a genuine love for nurturing young minds. I’m committed to creating a safe, stimulating, and supportive environment where children can thrive. If possible, I’d also appreciate the opportunity to bring my son along during the hours when my husband is at work, allowing me to balance my professional and parental roles effectively.
