I am an energetic and loving sitter who loves to spark joy in everyday moment. I have 3 younger sibling (3,5, and 15). I have babysat them since the age of 14. I began to professionally babysit for multiple families in Orlando Fl 2 years ago. I fulfilled duties from transportation, cooking and cleaning to simply watching and spending time with multiple children. I am looking for a more permanent position with a family I can connect with and establish a solid relationship with the children. I am an online college student in a PreLaw program also getting my minor in Childhood Education. I love reading, cooking and art. I love to spend my days at the beach or with my family. I am looking to work for a family that fits well for me, the parents, and the children. I have CPR and First Aid training. Feel free to call me for reference letters or any questions!!

I have child care experience in nannying, babysitting, and preschool and have worked with children aged 6 months-5 years. I currently attend UCF where I am in my final year earning a B.S. in Early Childhood Development and Education. I also possess a Florida Child Care Staff Credential awarded through DCF. Additional to my CPR and first aid certifications, I have individualized experience working with children with severe food allergies, as well as previous kitchen and customer service work. I am truly passionate about early childcare, I stay active in my personal time and enjoy playing with children outside and helping them get dirty under the Florida sunshine! I understand the importance of exposure to nature, as well as the sensorial benefits of outdoor play and exploration. Early exposure to reading, literacy, and phonics is also crucial for this age range- I put a large emphasis on fun and engaging ways to help children learn the many different phonemes as well as print awareness. I may be a great fit for your family if you are looking for someone to: - Expose your child to various environments (parks, beaches, libraries, small groups) - Set an example of healthy practices such as nutrition and an active lifestyle - Help with chores around the house or run errands - Give undivided, individual attention to your little one - Have a flexible schedule open to change
