I am a Professional Childcare Provider/Baby Homie and Artist because I am a fun-loving and free-spirited nurturer by nature. My professions are my passion and livelihood. I am athletic and I like to keep moving. I love smiling, singing, dancing, drawing, doing puzzles, building with LEGOs, teaching, playing games, reading books and taking walks. I can also make fresh baby food. I am a native New Yorker with New Orleanian roots. Coming from a family of artists of all sorts, I have a whimsical-creative style and personality. I am 42 years old, have no children of my own and I have a very flexible schedule. I am a Certified Newborn Care Specialist and First Aid/Child/Infant CPR trained and certified. I absolutely adore babies. I understand the difficulty and importance of finding trustworthy care for your baby.

Hi! I am looking to get back into babysitting to help support myself through Physician Assistant School at Hofstra University. While studying Molecular Biology at Colgate University for undergrad, I also led a club offering after school care/activities for 4th and 5th graders at the local school. After graduating in 2022, I began working as a medical assistant at pediatric office, where I gained experience treating children for the last year. My favorite part of my job was interacting with kids of all ages, so I am really excited about getting back into baby sitting! Making the kids comfortable in the office and helping them feel better has been so rewarding, so I am looking forward to giving the same care to your children. In my free time I love being with my family and friends, going to the beach, and exercising. Please reach out if you’d like to know more about me, I would love to chat!

I love being a sitter because it allows me to make a positive impact on children's lives while fostering their growth and creativity. Watching them explore the world, learn new things, and develop their personalities is incredibly rewarding. I find joy in creating fun, engaging activities that not only entertain but also support their development. In terms of experience, I’ve worked with children of various ages, from toddlers to preteens. I've supported families with daily routines, educational activities, and special needs, tailoring my approach to meet each child's unique needs. As for skills and training, I’m certified in CPR and first aid, which gives me peace of mind while caring for kids. I also have training in child development and positive discipline techniques. I’m always eager to learn more and stay updated on best practices in childcare. Building strong, trusting relationships with both children and their families is a top priority for me!

For many years I have worked with childrens of different ages, different backgrounds and some with exceptionalities such as ADHD and Autism. I love to cook healthy meals according to their preferences, playing their games, understanding and supporting their personal worlds. I am a team player. I like to collaborate with the family as needed and I am flexible in terms of schedule and tasks. Running errands, scheduling playdates, going to doctors appointments are some of the responsibilities I have carrie out. I love pets and encouraging children to love them and be good caretakers. Punctuality and reliability are very important so I like to prepare ahead of time, plan accordingly so there is smooth sailing all around. I love sports so playing with the children sports and encouraging a lot of physical activity is always on my mind. I have been a teacher so academically I can support children and understand what they need to meet their teacher's expectations and do well in school. Meeting the family's needs and expectations are my top priority.
