17 years of safe, engaging, skill building fun facilitation; supplemented with homework help, tutoring, and academic support... While attending university, I began facilitating recreation therapy respite for families adjusted by developmental differences. I also continued with the YMCA, YWCA and local youth bureau; all while also living and serving with the local volunteer fire department. Upon graduation I accepted a couple roles as Program Director, but soon realized that front line work was my truest passion. Since my work as a Family Advocate, Wilderness Therapy Guide, Kids Ski Instructor, "Manny" (Nanny), Firefighter, Alpine Manager, Mountain Bike Coach, Lifeguard, and Summer Camp Director for multiple camps, I have gained and honed a diverse skill set. My experience provides families with a compassionate, professional, fun loving, supportive, flexible, and nurturing care giver. Whether you need a one time “babysitter” or a commitment over an extended period of time, I feel confident that I can provide the stimulating and/or structured environment, balanced and tailored for your little people to thrive. Philosophically, I believe in and promote autonomy and democracy; encouraging choice, individuality, compromise, and teamwork. Ex: I do not believe in asking one to apologize, but rather explaining to them the relational benefits of such actions, and providing them the opportunity. Currently, I spend a lot of time in the mountains, tackling personal objectives; so though my location may be elsewhere, I may be looking to work in an area close to your childcare needs.

May name is Julia and I have several years experience babysitting. My heart for children started when I was very young. My mom is an early childhood education teacher. She has taught me many things about taking care of children. Growing up I looked after my younger siblings while my mom was a single parent raising 5 kids. Since then my experience includes being camp counselor, substitute teacher, preschool teacher/teachers aid. To me, babysitting is more than supervising. It’s important to give the child(ren) my full attention in order to comfort them and gain trust. Kids like me because I am funny, kind & loving. I have a lot of patience and I am very respectful. I will always prioritize children’s needs such as meal times, nap times, and playtime, etc. Consider me to be your child’s babysitter because I take this job very seriously and I am a hard worker.
