Meet Laura

I’m a dependable babysitter with more than 10 years of experience. I grew up caring for the kids in my extended family and worked with multiple families with their newborns as young as 3 months old. I have worked in after school programs and summer camps focusing on early childhood education. In my spare time I am passionate about painting and creating through digital mediums. With this as my background I do my best at engaging kids in creative and physical activities that will incorporate fun and learning. I am a fluent Spanish speaker and would be happy to share that knowledge with little ones. CPR/AED/First Aid certified for both adults and children. I do practice preventative care during this time, therefore, I prioritize safety and preventative care for the little ones that I care for.
