I love being a sitter because caring for children feels meaningful to me, and I truly enjoy creating a calm, nurturing environment where kids feel safe, understood, and supported. I have hands-on experience from working as a summer camp counselor, where I supervised groups of children, balanced different ages and needs, and kept them engaged through daily activities. I’m comfortable caring for infants, toddlers, and school-aged kids, and I’ve also helped families with routines, transportation, and general in-home support.
