Hi there! My name is Ashley, and I am a 22-year-old undergraduate student. I have had plenty of experience working with kids, whether it was as a camp counselor or an as-needed babysitter for neighbors and friends. I also worked with kids for several years as a junior Taekwondo instructor. I am reliable and patient, and I am resourceful in challenging situations. I am also physically fit and enjoy getting active and involved with whatever the kids are doing, like going to parks, riding bikes, stomping around in puddles, or playing with action figures or dolls. I think being attentive as well as being involved is what helps foster trust between the kids and me, no matter how old they are (and it makes the job fun!). I also have skills in cooking, cleaning (and organizational skills), and basic first aid. I am CPR certified as of November (2024). I am available to take care of pets, too (I have plenty of my own at home!).

Hi! I’m Elderina, an 18-year-old student-athlete who graduated early and is planning to commit to a college for soccer. Being an athlete has taught me discipline, responsibility, and how to be a strong role model, and I bring that same mindset into babysitting. While I haven’t babysat professionally yet, I have plenty of experience caring for my younger sister and helping out with my family. I’m a hard worker, passionate, and humble, and I naturally connect with kids by being someone they can trust, talk to, and have fun with. I love keeping kids active, engaged, and happy, while also making sure they feel safe and supported. I’m comfortable with cooking, helping with homework, and handling bedtime routines. When I’m not playing soccer or in the gym, I’m usually at home cleaning or working at my dad’s restaurant, which has helped me become responsible and dependable. I’m friendly, confident, and always focused on creating a positive, safe, and fun environment for your child!
