1I AM AN EXTENSIVELY, EXPERIENCED, REPUTABLE SITTEE FOR CHILDREN FROM INFANCY THROUGH TEEN YEARS WITH ALL LEVELS OF DEVELOPMENTAL MILESTONES. I HOLD A BACHELOR'S IN PSYCHOLOGY WITH A SPECIALTY IN EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION. I AS WELL HAVE DIVERSIFIED EXPERIENCE CARING FOR AND WORKING WITH CHILDREN THAT ARE PHYSICALLY, DEVELOPMENTALLY AND PSYCHOLOGICALLY CHALLENGED. MY PASSION LIES IN NURTURING & MENTORING CHILDREN & HAVING BEEN BLESSED TO HAVE BEEN AFFORDED REWARDING OPPORTUNI- TIES TO WORK HANDS-ON WITH THE VARIABLE DYNAMICS OF THE FAMILIES I HAVE SERVED. THIS HAS ENABLED ME TO BETTER UTILIZE & APPLY MY EDUCATIONAL SKILLS & THOROUGHLY GAIN A DEDICATED, MORE PERSON-CENTERED EXPERIENCE & UNDERSTANDING OF THE APPLIED PRINCIPLES THAT PROMOTE A CHILD'S HEALTHY SENSE OF COGNITIVE & PSYCHOSOCIAL DEVELOPMENT. I ENJOY STAYING ACTIVE & ENCOURAGING POSITIVE, CREATIVE ACTIVITIES THAT ARE FUNDAMENT- ALLY SAFE & AS WELL PROVIDE REWARDING & AGE APPROPRIATE EXPERIENCES. I UNDERSTAND THE SIGNIFICANCE IN MAINTAINIING OPEN, COLLABORATIVE RAPPORT IN DEVELOPING A STRONG PARTNE- SHIP WITH PARENTS. I HAVE FOUND THAT JUST AS IMPORTANT, IS THE ABILITY TO REMAIN FEASIBLY FLEXIBLE & ADAPTABLE TO DIFFERENT PARENTING TECNIQUES AS WELL AS ROUTINE/SCHEDULE CHANGES. I ACKNOWLEDGE THAT SELF AWARENESS IN SAFETY CONSCIOUSNESS & THE ABILITY TO REMAIN NURTURING & COMPASION- ATE, BUT ALSO MAINTAIN THE ABILITY TO ENFORCE DISCIPLINE IS NECESSARY. I PRIDE MYSELF ON LIVING A HEALTHY, CHRISTIAN LIFESTYLE WHILE BALANCING A STABLE MORAL & WORK ETHIC. I HAVE THE AUTONOMY TO COMMIT TO BOTH SHORT AS WELL AS LONG-TERM POSITIONS & CAN PROVIDE A REPUTABLE RESUMÉ AS WELL AS CHARACTER REFERENCES UPON REQUEST.

I love being a sitter because I truly enjoy spending time with kids and being a part of their growth and daily routines. Every child has their own personality, and I like creating a fun, safe, and positive environment where they feel cared for and comfortable. It’s rewarding to know that I can help families feel at ease while also building trust with their children. I have experience caring for children of different ages, from infants to older kids. My responsibilities have included feeding, diaper changes, helping with homework, preparing meals, organizing activities, and making sure children stay safe at all times. I’ve also helped with bedtime routines, light cleaning, and transportation when needed. I’m responsible, patient, and able to adapt quickly to different situations. I’m skilled at engaging kids in creative activities, helping them with schoolwork, and keeping them on schedule. I also know basic first aid and CPR, which helps me stay prepared in case of emergencies. My strong communication skills allow me to connect well with both kids and parents.
