I believe kids do best when they feel comfortable, included, and part of something real. When your child is with me, they’re not just being watched. They’re stepping into a day that feels natural, active, and engaging. We’re usually on the go, whether that’s a trip to a local park, a splash pad, a small adventure outdoors, or simply finding something fun and hands-on to do together. I like to keep kids moving, curious, and involved, while still making sure they feel relaxed and at ease. At the same time, I understand how important it is for kids to feel safe and grounded. I follow your routines, respect your preferences, and make sure your child feels secure the entire time. Every child is different, and I adjust to their personality, whether they’re high-energy and ready to explore or more laid-back and just want a calm, enjoyable day. My goal is simple: your child feels like they’re part of a good day, not just passing time. They’ll be safe, cared for, and genuinely enjoy themselves.

I have used Brenley as a dog sitter on numerous occasions. I would not trust many people with my Whiskey Puppy Baby, but I am never concerned if Brenley is taking care of her. I will definitely use him whenever I need the best person available to take care of my dog when I can't!

Experienced caregiver with a strong background in early childhood care. I worked as a daycare teacher for one year, caring for children ages infant-12 years old where I developed patience, creativity, and strong supervision skills. I am CPR certified and trained to handle emergencies calmly and effectively. In addition to childcare, I have experience with dog sitting and house sitting, making me comfortable managing pets and maintaining a safe, organized home environment. I am responsible, attentive, and committed to creating a fun, nurturing, and secure space for your child. I have a big bubble personality and also ready for some fun after school work of course!

Hello! My name is Heather Simar and I am 38 years young. I am a professional tax preparer and an insurance benefit advisor for Aflac, BUT, my passion in life is helping people live a better life and especially, I enjoy working with children and adolescents. I have a educational background in early childhood development and child psychology and also have a great attitude that really attracts and draws children to me. I am fun and also responsible. I do know CPR and the Heimlich maneuver but I'm not certified. I can get certified if that is something you are interested in and also, I too, am interested in getting certified officially. My father was a paramedic so he always thought it important for me to know those things from an early age because I had two younger brothers and helped my mother to raise them. So, I've been taking care of children for a long time. I also have professional experience working with children with developmental/mental issues and helped my adolescent client to socialize herself and engaged in activities that helped build the child's confidence and self-esteem. I worked with my client for 3 years as her homeschooling instructor as well and I helped my client using therapeutic play such as horseback riding, outdoor activities, gardening, physical activities, journaling, ect. I am a Hands-On caretaker and enjoy activities and engaging with my clients. I am looking to generate some more income and I really enjoy looking after children. I have references that I can provide for you and also I would enjoy hearing more about the job and learning if I am a good fit for you and your family. I am comfortable with pets and don't mind doing a little housekeeping. I have reliable transportation and a clean driving record. I do not have any children of my own and my schedule is very flexible at the moment. A little about me personally, I enjoy nature and I enjoy spending time with my dogs and my family. I enjoy the simple things in life and everyday try to improve myself to be a better me. I'm a great communicator with children and adults and also really good at de-escalating any situation that could arise with your child whether it be behavioral or a medical situation. I am confident in my ability to tackle and respond in a level-headed manner, should any issues arise. I look forward to speaking with you. 😊

I have worked with children since I was 13 and I am now 19. My passion is to watch the growth in children day by day and making their days a little brighter with me along side helping make memories and dreams happen. A happy child makes a happy home, and a happy sitter! I love all my babies. I work at a Montessori school currently, I teach prek 2 and I adore my babies. I look forward to working with them each day. I’m also in nursing school in which I get graduate this year (2026), and I still plan even then to work with children on the side of my nursing career.
