I love being a sitter because I truly enjoy working with children and creating a safe, positive, and caring environment for them. I am bilingual and able to communicate comfortably in both English and Spanish, which helps me connect with children and families from different backgrounds. I have experience caring for children of various ages and assisting with routines such as playtime, meals, and homework. I am a current undergraduate student who hopes to work with kids in the future, so I take this role seriously and see it as meaningful, hands-on experience. I am patient, responsible, and attentive, and my goal is always to make sure children feel safe, supported, and happy.

I currently am a co-lead infant teacher at my current job so I have a lot of experience working with infants. I am also CPR + First Aid certified! I have previously worked with toddlers all the way up to school-agers! I’m available on the weekends, and evenings (5pmish). I enjoy meeting new children, and love to experience their growth as they get older. I would call myself pretty patient, strong minded and a hard worker.

Working with kids just gives me peace of mind, knowing that I’m helping the child grow learn in so many other different things. I have a lot of younger siblings and I’ve also taken care of other people’s kids. I have a lot of different experience with different age groups. I don’t know if it helps any but I do have a three month old son myself. I do know CPR and I do know first aid. I am not certified, but I have taken classes for them before

I began babysitting and childcare when I was 12years old. I have watched children both in clients homes and also at my church. I have provided care for up to 5 kids at one time by myself. I am certified in CPR, AED, and First aid for all ages. I am a mom of a spunky 3.5year old and I love to engage kids in activities and arts/crafts. I’m very active and enjoy going outside to the park anytime the weather allows. I love kids of all ages and I understand the challenges kids have when meeting someone new. I meet kids where they are! I have watched children from newborn to age 12 but I am comfortable helping older kids too. I do have a bachelors in business and HR management and enjoy helping kids with their homework as well.
