Hi! My name is Kati 🌸 and I truly love being a babysitter. I enjoy spending time with children, helping them learn, grow, and have fun in a safe and caring environment. I find it incredibly rewarding to be part of a child’s development and to build strong, trusting relationships with both kids and their families. 🤍🧸 I have 1 year of experience caring for children of various ages, from infants to school-aged kids. During this time, I've worked with families in both casual and long-term positions, including after-school care, weekend babysitting, and occasional overnight stays. 🎒🩶 I bring a calm, patient, and responsible attitude to every job. I’m also creative and love planning engaging activities like crafts, storytelling, and outdoor play. 🎨 My goal is always to make sure children feel safe, supported, and happy while their parents are away. 🌿☀️

Hello! I'm Aolat, a caring, patient, and creative babysitter with years of experience caring for children across multiple age groups, especially children ages 2–8. I’ve worked with single children and sibling groups, and I’m skilled in homework help, bedtime routines, potty training, and meal prep. I'm often incorporating my love of theatre and literature into games, storytelling, and other enriching activities. I’m just as confident managing fun outdoor adventures, like walks and park visits as I am leading quiet indoor time. I am a prospective law student, with a background ranging from being a camp counselor for elementary-aged kids to most recently working with university students. I'm here to create a safe, meaningful environment where kids can explore, learn, and have fun—and that parents can feel confident in! :)
