I am a wife and mother of three adult children. I was a certified elementary teacher (k-9) for over 15 years before I moved here, and I love to work with children. I was a full time nanny to two young children (3 yrs old and 3-15 months) in St. Joseph, Michigan (2021-23), another infant 3-20 months in Valparaiso (2023-24), and two children (4 & 2 years old) in Valpo (23-Now) I'm currently available on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I can help with just about anything including the feeding, cleaning, laundry, making baby food, or homework. Just let me know what it is that you need. I am very comfortable with children of all ages. As a working parent, I understand how hard it is to get it all done and how important it is to find a reliable, trusted individual to care for your most precious commodity - your children. I am hands-on, engaging, and fun. I love to get kids out and about and involved in activities that involve physical movement whenever possible. I am also extremely reliable.

I love being a sitter because I truly enjoy making a positive impact in children’s lives and supporting families in meaningful ways. I value creating safe, engaging, and nurturing environments where children can learn and grow through play and everyday moments. I especially enjoy creative opportunities for naturalistic learning, particularly with younger children. I’m calm, playful, and a kid at heart, while also knowing when to step into a more structured and disciplined role to support routines and expectations. I have about four years of experience working with children of all ages. My background includes working as a Teacher Assistant in a daycare facility, serving as a preschool teacher, and most recently working as a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) with children on the autism spectrum. Through these roles, I’ve gained experience with daily routines, behavior support, developmental milestones, and building strong, trusting relationships with children and families. I am CPR and First Aid certified and hold a Bachelor’s degree in Clinical Psychology. I am currently working toward my Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Roosevelt University, where I also serve as a Graduate Assistant. My training has given me a strong foundation in child development, behavior support, emotional regulation, and positive reinforcement strategies. I am comfortable with pets (I have a cat and have lived with both cats and dogs most of my life) and am happy to help with light housekeeping, laundry, dishes, meal preparation, and transportation as needed. While I balance graduate school and my assistantship, I am very motivated to work collaboratively with families to find a schedule that works well for both of us.

I enjoy being a sitter because I love spending time with children, keeping them active with fun activities, and creating positive moments that make them laugh and smile. Most of my childcare experience has been with family members, including helping care for a new cousin, which has given me strong experience with babies as well. From a young age, I regularly watched my cousin while their parents were at work, helping build my responsibility and confidence in childcare. I am dependable, punctual, and able to multitask while staying organized and attentive to children’s needs. I am CPR and First Aid certified, and I am currently a senior in high school enrolled in a vocational program working toward my CNA license. Through this program, I have completed hands on training and testing, making me very familiar with proper care and safety practices. Your child would be in caring, capable, and responsible hands.

I’ve been around childcare my entire life. My parents owned a childcare center in the 90s and brought it to Indiana in the early 2000s, so growing up I was always surrounded by children of all ages. Because of that, I learned early on how to help create a safe, structured, and nurturing environment. I officially started assisting in the childcare setting at age 13, helping with daily routines, meals, activities, and supervision. Over the years, I’ve gained experience with feeding, hygiene, engaging children in developmental activities, keeping them safe, and understanding different behaviors and needs. I am also CPR and First Aid certified, which has strengthened my ability to handle emergencies and provide safe, attentive care. Being raised in that environment taught me patience, responsibility, and how to care for others with kindness and consistency. Those skills translate directly into caregiving, because I’m already comfortable supporting someone’s daily needs and making sure they feel safe and cared for.
