I am a Drake Law School student with a passion for childcare. I have been caring for children for as long as I can remember. I grew up on a street where I was the oldest kid, so I was the neighborhood babysitter. This has continued into my teenage years, as I have been employed at the YMCA for over 3 years doing both the summer camp program and aftercare during the school year. I have experience with newborns to teenagers. I am first aid and CPR certified, and I have a car. I am well-versed in managing multiple kids (and multiple ages) at once. I pride myself on my ability to cook, help with homework, create (clean up), and play with all types of kids :)

I enjoy meeting new children, and love to experience their growth as they get older. I would call myself pretty patient, strong minded and a hard worker.

Hello! My name is Candice, and caring for others has been my passion for most of my life. I have 6 years of professional experience as a Direct Support Professional (DSP) and approximately 15–20 years of experience as a babysitter and caregiver. I am also a mother of three, with two teenagers and one elementary-school-aged child, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your children. I am passionate about helping children feel safe, loved, supported, and understood. I have experience caring for verbal and nonverbal children, children with autism, and children with behavioral challenges. I believe every child is unique and deserves patience, compassion, encouragement, and care tailored to their individual needs. I have been a certified Medication Technician (Med Tech) for seven years and am CPR and First Aid certified. My background has helped me develop strong caregiving, communication, safety awareness, and behavioral support skills. I strive to create a nurturing, positive, and comfortable environment where children can learn, grow, and be themselves. For me, caregiving is more than a job; it is something I genuinely love. My goal is to give every family peace of mind, knowing their children are in dependable, capable, and loving hands. I treat every child with the same patience, respect, and attention I would want someone to give my own children. ❤️
