I have many years of experience with children in a wide range of settings, including many years of babysitting for families in their homes, working as a summer camp counselor, as an assistant teacher in a daycare, and volunteering in two elementary schools. I raised my own son and I occasionally watch my 4 and 6 year old grandsons. In the past year and a half I have watched a 2.5 year old boy, an infant girl from age 3 to 6 months, a baby boy from 7 to 10 months, and an 8 year old girl. I completed a pediatric first aid and CPR class in November 2023. When I am watching children I do not use my cell phone (other than in case of emergency or if I need to schedule an appointment) as I want to give the kids my undivided attention. I especially enjoy reading to children, doing art projects together, and taking nature walks. I am very energetic, and on days when I am not babysitting, I typically take 4 - 5 mile walks along the lake. I am very happy to provide professional and personal references. Among the parents from whom I can provide references are a neonatologist, a professor of psychology, a nurse, and an elementary schoolteacher. As a caregiver, I am highly reliable, kind, warm, and fun. I love both kids and dogs. My schedule is typically very flexible, and I can often make myself available for last-minute requests. Thank you. Rosanne

Ready to experience the best babysitter that your kids will be disappointed you came home? Hello, I am interested in becoming a babysitter for you! My name is Tenia. I have been working with children and adolescents my entire life, and have been working on Sittercity for a few years now, and have been working with the same families for 2-3 years as well. Working with children is my passion, whether it is therapeutic or fun! I don’t have any children of my own so looking over other families' children fills my baby/kid fever! I treat all children as if they were my own and I love watching them grow each day! You will not have to worry about leaving your children in my care! I strive to make sure both you as the parent and your children are comfortable so you can have peace while you are away from your kiddos! I am currently CPR-certified and will provide documentation if needed. I can drive children to activities, watch children at your home, watch children at my home, help with homework, prepare meals, and teach healthy skills. I have been babysitting for many years and these rates are based on my experience and quality of work! However, I am open to discussing prices! I am easygoing and welcome communication of any sorts! I believe all parents should be able to have access to babysitting care. I look forward to working with you and your kiddos! If you are happy with my services, please leave a review! :) If you are not happy, let’s talk! I am very open to feedback and criticism! I have a family that you can contact as a reference if needed! :)
