I truly love what I do and strive to create a fun, engaging, and nurturing environment for every child I care for. I have experience with infants, toddlers, and school-aged kids, handling everything from meal prep and bedtime routines to arts and crafts, outdoor adventures, and developmental activities.

Whether it’s reading books, playing at the park, or organizing creative learning experiences, I make sure every child feels cared for, supported, and entertained. If you’re looking for a responsible, loving, and experienced sitter who will treat your little ones like family, I’d love to chat! Let’s connect and see if I’d be a great fit for your needs.
