My name is Laylani, and I love working with children. Growing up, I always took care of my younger sister, bathing her, helping with her homework, and more. I also have experience from helping out at two different daycares—one was home-based and family-owned, and the other was where a family member worked, where I assisted with infants and toddlers aged 2-3 years. I enjoy working with kids because it's incredibly rewarding to see them learn and grow. Their energy and curiosity are infectious, making my job fascinating and exciting. Plus, the joy and laughter children bring can brighten anyone's day. What sets me apart as a babysitter is my reliability, creativity, and genuine love for working with children. Engaging kids in fun and educational activities while ensuring their safety is my top priority. Additionally, I have great communication skills.

I love being a babysitter because it offers a unique opportunity to bond with children, witness their growth, and experience the joy they bring, while also providing valuable experience and a chance to make a positive impact on their lives. I have 8 siblings and I’m the oldest out of 6! I have training from newborn to teen!
