Why I Love Being a Sitter: I love being a sitter because I truly enjoy working with kids and helping them grow in positive ways. Every child has their own personality and energy, and I love finding creative ways to connect — whether it’s through games, sports, crafts, or just good conversation. It’s rewarding knowing parents can count on me to keep their children safe, happy, and supported. Experience: I have several years of experience caring for children of all ages. I’ve worked as a paraprofessional for two years, supporting students in the classroom, helping with academics, and encouraging positive behavior. I’ve also worked as a basketball coach, where I taught teamwork, discipline, and confidence while making sure kids stayed active and had fun. In addition, I’ve served as a mentor in a dorm-style setting, supervising more than 15 kids, guiding them through daily routines, and helping them make good Read more choices. Skills and Training: I’m reliable, patient, and great at balancing multiple responsibilities. I’m trained in basic first aid and CPR, and I know how to stay calm and focused in any situation. My experience in education and coaching has strengthened my communication, leadership, and problem-solving skills. Above all, I bring warmth, structure, and positivity to every family I work with.
