I believe caring for children is some of the most important work there is. Kids deserve to feel safe, heard, and encouraged to grow into who they’re meant to be—and I take pride in being someone families can trust with that responsibility. Being around children brings me so much joy, and I naturally connect with them through patience, creativity, and a nurturing approach. I have several years of hands-on experience working with children of all ages. Since 2017, I’ve taught ballet to 4–6-year-olds, which has given me a strong foundation in patience, structure, and making learning fun. I also spent a year working in a childcare setting, caring for children from as young as 8 weeks old through pre-K, so I’m very comfortable with everything from infant care to keeping older kids engaged and active. I am CPR and Basic Life Support certified, and safety is always my top priority. I’m currently in college studying nutrition and dietetics, with plans to become a lactation consultant. Growing up with a mother who is a midwife gave me a deep respect for women’s health, early childhood development, and the importance of supportive, attentive care from the very beginning of life. What sets me apart is that I don’t just “watch” children—I actively engage with them, teach them, and support their development in a positive and loving way. Whether it’s helping with routines, encouraging creativity, or simply being a calm and dependable presence, I’m committed to creating a safe, happy environment for your child.

I became a caregiver because I have always had a love for helping others. Through babysitting I love to come up with fun activities to do with the children and watch their imaginations run wild while creating fun and new games. I have been watching children of all ages for the past 5 years and I have made many wonderful connections with the parents and children. I truly see babysitting not so much as a job but as a way to help make any child's day more fun. I am CPR/AED/ First Aid Certified. I am also a nationally certified Patient Care Technician. Along with babysitting, I worked in my churches nursery every Sunday from March 2022-June of 2023, watching children of all ages.

I am a junior at Randolph-Macon College majoring in accounting. I come from a big, extended family, so caring for children is something I’m very comfortable with. While I have had experience in caring for some of the children in my family in the past, my first (non-family related) paid babysitting was in 2019, and half of 2021 up to 2022 (partial)--2 years total. I like to think of myself as caring and patient, which is why I connect with children so easily. Babysitting has always been fun and never felt like a job! Note: I am first aid & CPR certified
