“I have always had a passion for working with children of all ages, from toddlers discovering the world around them to pre-teens developing their independence. Babysitting gives me the opportunity to create a safe, positive, and fun environment where kids can feel supported and cared for. I have experience in child care through personal babysitting, family, volunteer, or professional roles and I take pride in being dependable, patient, and adaptable to each child’s unique needs and personality. With toddlers, I enjoy engaging in play that supports early learning, motor skills, and creativity. With school-aged children, I love helping with homework, encouraging good study habits, and keeping routines structured yet enjoyable. With pre-teens, I focus on providing guidance, encouragement, and a safe space where they can express themselves while still having fun. Families can count on me to be reliable, responsible, and compassionate. I believe in open communication with parents and making sure children are not only safe, but also happy, supported, and excited about the time we spend together.”

Being a babysitter brings me immense joy because it allows me to share my love for children and nurture their unique personalities. As a triplet, I’ve always been surrounded by siblings, which has given me a natural affinity for understanding and connecting with kids. I also have a sister who is 15 years younger than me, whom I had the privilege of raising as my own daughter. Having grown up in a family with 35 sets of twins, I’ve developed a special knack for handling the dynamics of multiple children at once. Each child is a world of their own, and being able to witness their growth and development is truly rewarding. As a Christian, I believe that caring for children is a calling, and I strive to instill values of kindness and compassion in every child I look after. There’s nothing more fulfilling than being a positive influence in their lives, and I am grateful for the opportunity to contribute to their happiness and growth.

I love being a sitter because I enjoy helping families and spending time with kids. I like making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. It’s fun watching them grow and learn new things. I also want to become a pediatric nurse in the future, so spending time with children and caring for them helps me build experience doing something I really enjoy. I have experience helping watch my little sister while my mom is at work. I help with things like meals, snacks, playtime, and bedtime. I also make sure she stays on schedule and help keep the house tidy. It’s taught me a lot about being patient, responsible, and caring. I’m patient, responsible, and good at keeping kids entertained and safe. I’m also a good communicator and can handle routines well. I haven’t had formal training yet, but I’m willing to take CPR or first aid courses to learn more.
