I love being a sitter because working with kids brings me so much joy. I’ve spent the last four years as a paraprofessional in schools, supporting children from pre-K through middle school. Along the way, I’ve developed patience, creativity, and strong communication skills while working closely with kids, parents, and teachers. I’m also EMT- and CPR-certified, so safety is always a top priority. Currently, I’m in nursing school, pursuing my dream of becoming a pediatric nurse. Babysitting allows me to continue doing what I love caring for children and helping them feel safe, supported, and happy.

I also have both Birth Doula and Postpartum Doula training, and I’m getting certified to teach yoga. I am available for one off childcare, as well as flexible in terms of scheduling, including nighttime/overnights and daytime care. I am also a bit obsessed with the NYT cooking app, and happy to prepare meals. I am certified in CPR and first aid, and comfortable around animals. Please reach out if you have any questions!
