love being a sitter because I truly enjoy spending time with children and helping them learn, grow, and have fun in a safe and nurturing environment. Being part of a child’s day, whether through play, routines, or learning moments, is very rewarding for me, and I take pride in creating a positive and supportive experience for both kids and parents. I worked at a daycare for two years, where I gained hands-on experience caring for children of different ages, managing daily routines, and supporting development through structured and unstructured activities. I am also currently a Pediatric Occupational Therapy Assistant, which has given me even more experience working closely with children and supporting their individual needs. Through my daycare and pediatric OT experience, I have strong skills in child development, behavior support, communication, and creating engaging, developmentally appropriate activities. I am trained in working with children with a variety of needs, following routines, ensuring safety, and providing compassionate care. My background helps me bring a calm, knowledgeable, and supportive approach to every family I work with.
