I love animals and kids. I always took my neighbors dog for walks. I grew up with having dogs and a couple of cats so I know how to take care of them. A few years back, I took care of a baby from one week to 6 months old, day to night. Her mom was friends with my mom so that's how I started looking after her, as well as her 10 year old big sister! I recently babysat a 6 year old in first grade for 6 months. She moved to Florida however, we still stay in touch and I’m her favorite babysitter. I do not have any CPR training however, I am willing to learn. I prefer to look after kids in Elementary School and up.

I'm haven! I am a EMT and nursing student, my commitment to safety and well-being extends to childcare. With a proven track record in caring for children aged 0-14, I have also worked as a personal care aid and a DSP so I have experience with caring for all ages and working with intellectual and developmental disabilities. I prioritize creating a nurturing and engaging environment. I am not only adept at handling emergencies but also skilled in fostering a positive and interactive atmosphere. To add more, my compatibility with pets ensures a harmonious household. Your trust in my abilities will not only provide peace of mind but also contribute to a seamless and enjoyable experience for your family. I also have every background check you can think of due to my career choices so if I still haven't provided enough to show I am a trustworthy caregiver I will provide my credentials with no problem!

With two years of hands-on babysitting experience, I’ve had the joy of working with children of all ages, and each family has taught me something new. From soothing infants to guiding curious toddlers, I’ve learned how to be patient, adaptable, and dependable while creating a safe and loving environment where kids feel happy and protected. I consider myself a nurturing and supportive caregiver who always puts a child’s well-being first. Beyond childcare, I also have experience with cooking, light cleaning, and helping maintain an organized home so your day runs more smoothly. I’m also comfortable handling pick-ups and drop-offs, which allows me to support your family’s routine with ease and reliability. Babysitting isn’t just a job to me—it’s something I truly enjoy. I love building real connections with children, encouraging their growth, and offering a calm, positive presence. I would be excited to bring my experience, enthusiasm, and caring personality into your home.
