I truly love being a nanny and sitter because caring for children has always been a natural part of who I am. I find joy in creating a safe, nurturing environment where kids can grow, explore, and feel supported. Every child is unique, and I value the chance to bring out their creativity, confidence, and curiosity through play, learning, and consistency. I have decades of hands-on experience raising my own children as well as working with families in the U.S. and abroad. Over the years, I have cared for children of all ages from newborns and toddlers to school aged kids and teens with an emphasis on patience, positive communication, and encouragement. I understand the balance between structure and fun, and I know how to adapt to each family’s needs.

I love being a sitter because it helps me prepare for the future of when I have kids of my own. I also enjoy making the kids smile and laugh. I’m the oldest of three boys so I have experience from my brothers and watching my mom’s friends kids. I have experience with kids with autism as two of my brothers have it and have different spectrums. I have been cpr and first aid certified before and is willing to get recertifited for the families im babysitting for. I’m an excellent cleaner so I don’t mind helping out with house work.
