Why do you love being a sitter? I love being a sitter because I truly enjoy making a positive impact in children’s lives. There’s something really special about watching a child grow, learn, and thrive and knowing that I play a part in that journey. I love teaching kids new skills, helping with homework, playing games, and just being someone they can trust and feel comfortable around. Building genuine, lasting relationships with the children and families I work with is one of the most rewarding parts of the job. Every day is a new adventure, and I love creating a fun, safe, and loving environment where kids feel free to be themselves. What experience do you have? I’ve been babysitting for over five years now, caring for children of various ages. I started out helping with family friends, and since then I’ve worked with many amazing families I’ve connected with Read more through trusted platforms. I’ve handled everything from bedtime routines to school pick-ups, meal prep, homework help, and weekend activities. Each experience has helped me grow, and I’ve developed a strong understanding of how to care for kids in a way that’s both responsible and fun. What skills and training do you have? I’m certified in First Aid and trained to handle emergencies calmly and effectively. I have excellent communication skills, both with kids and parents, which helps everyone feel informed and comfortable. I’m a quick learner, super organized, and great at multitasking whether it’s keeping a toddler entertained while making lunch or tidying up after a craft project. I’m also naturally upbeat, patient, and creative, and I always try to bring positive energy to every situation. Whether it’s a dance party in the living room or a quiet story before bed, I love creating moments that are both fun and meaningful for the kids I care for.
