I love working with kids because it reminds me of how amazing and exciting the world can be. I started working with kids when I was about 13 years old. I started working with kids of special needs about 4 years ago. I have been working with infants for about 4 years as well and since then I have been working with children of all ages. In my spare time, I like to volunteer with the special needs community along with local events. When I'm not volunteering I enjoy reading and studying. One thing you should know about me is I work well with children that have special needs, and work well with larger groups of children. My skills include patience, enthusiasm, compassion and empathy.

I am an occupational therapy assistant student who has a goal of working in the pediatric therapy field and babysitting is one of my favorite ways to gain hands-on experience while supporting families in my community. Throughout my past year of schooling I have completed 24 hours of fieldwork based in pediatrics and 24 hours based in mental health, and throughout have been working with children who have special needs. This hands-on experience has given me a strong foundation for insight onto routine building, emotional regulation support, and sensory-friendly activities.

I am currently a college student at KSU studying Athletic Training with the hopes of becoming a Physical Therapist. I am originally from Colorado, but I am living in Manhattan until the end of June and am seeking a job for this period of time. I worked as a lifeguard all throughout high school and was certified in CPR and First aide. I babysat occasionally before heading to college, but I love kids and enjoy taking care of people. I have my own car and am willing to do anything to serve the family as best as I can!

I have always enjoyed being around children. There's something special about getting to see the world through a child's eyes, whether that's through imaginative play, creative activities, or simply sharing in their excitement about the little things. Babysitting is more than just a job to me—it's an opportunity to create a safe, fun, and supportive environment where children feel comfortable, valued, and cared for. I'm a dependable, patient, and compassionate person who understands how important it is for parents to feel confident when leaving their children in someone else's care. I take that trust seriously and always strive to be someone families can rely on. My goal is to make parents feel at ease while ensuring their children have a positive, safe experience. I enjoy engaging with kids in ways that match their interests and personalities. Whether that's building forts, doing arts and crafts, playing board games, reading books, helping with homework, spending time outdoors, or simply having conversations about their favorite topics, I love finding activities that keep children entertained, learning, and having fun. I believe that every child is unique, and I do my best to create meaningful connections with each one. I understand the importance of structure and routine. I'm happy to help with meal preparation, homework support, bedtime routines, light housekeeping related to the children, and following any family-specific guidelines. I know consistency is important for children, and I work hard to maintain the routines that help them feel secure and comfortable. I believe parents should feel informed and confident about how their children are doing while they're away. I'm always happy to provide updates, answer questions, and make sure expectations are clear from the start. Building trust with both parents and children is something I take pride in. People who know me would describe me as friendly, responsible, and easy to get along with. I stay calm under pressure, pay attention to details, and genuinely care about the well-being of the children I look after. I understand that babysitting isn't just about supervision—it's about being a positive role model, creating a safe environment, and helping children feel supported and encouraged. I would love the opportunity to get to know your family and provide dependable, caring childcare that gives you peace of mind. I look forward to helping create a fun, safe, and positive experience for your children!
