Hello. I raised two beautiful children, and during that time was employed for just over three years in childcare. Once my children were older I worked as a Mechanical Engineer then retired early. I am ready to begin childcare again. I am fun-loving, caring and calm. I was a tutor for two years in college, so I could easily step in with homework help. I LOVE babies.

I’m a creative and dependable babysitter with years of hands-on experience. As the oldest of six siblings, I’ve been babysitting since I was 12, so caring for kids feels second nature to me. I love incorporating learning into everyday activities, whether through crafts, cooking together, or fun educational games. I’m artsy and enjoy helping kids explore their imagination through projects and play. I also believe getting outside is important, so whenever possible, I make sure we spend some time enjoying fresh air. Whether it’s preparing a healthy meal, keeping everyone engaged, or creating a safe and fun environment, I bring both responsibility and creativity to every babysitting job.
