Why do you love being a sitter? I love being a sitter because I enjoy creating a safe, calm, and supportive environment where children can feel secure and be themselves. Seeing kids grow in confidence, learn new skills, and feel understood is incredibly rewarding to me. What experience do you have? I am a licensed foster parent with over 15 years of experience caring for children ages 6 to 21, including those with trauma and behavioral challenges. I’ve supported children with daily routines, school responsibilities, and emotional development. I also worked as a home care assistant during college, where I provided attentive and compassionate care. What skills and training do you have? I am certified in CPR, First Aid, and defensive driving. As a licensed foster parent, I complete ongoing annual training in child development, behavior management, and caregiving. I am highly experienced in child safety, structured routines, and supporting Read more a wide range of needs. My background as a federal professional has strengthened my reliability, organization, and communication skills. I am patient, dependable, and adaptable. What am I seeking? I am seeking on-call babysitting opportunities where I can provide families with a reliable, experienced, and trustworthy caregiver. As a retired federal employee, I bring a strong sense of responsibility and professionalism. I am also comfortable caring for children in homes with pets.
