I am looking for an opportunity to spend my time taking care of kids while I wait to enlist in the USAF! I have a lot of free time, and a lot of love to give back to my community before I leave. I’ve had a strong creative outlet my whole life, and could guarantee your kiddos would be kept busy all day with odds and ends from a long list of the hobbies I’ve had. I was raised in a rural area with three little brothers where the great outdoors were our playground, and was brought up through classical Christian education. Very big on the importance of learning, if your kid’s got curiosity I’m happy to encourage it. I got a knack for out-loud reading and entertaining all the endless questions and conversations. On the other hand, I have a lot of experience playing the waiting game at nap-time, and personally love a quiet parallel playtime as well. Both my First Aid and CPR certifications were completed recently within the last few months, and though I don’t have any true professional experience as a sitter, I’ve spent my whole life alongside children, and babysat for relatives, neighbors, and Sunday schools for years. I have the most experience with younger kids, but I love babies!!!!!!!! I’m a steady learner; teach me once and I can stick to your needed routine while also keeping things new and individual. You can count on me to keep you updated, ask the questions that matter, and operate on your preferred level of communication. I’ll start off with the care I can provide for your kiddos, and with everything else you need, you just fill in the rest!

Fatima was amazing! My 10 month, 2, and 4-year-old absolutely loved her! She was on time and was great at interacting with the kids. Already have planned on rebooking for more date nights!

I’m responsible, patient, and naturally good with kids. I have hands‑on experience caring for younger family members as well as volunteering in my church’s children’s ministry. Through these roles, I’ve supervised groups of children, assisted with activities, helped maintain structure, and ensured everyone felt safe and included. These experiences strengthened my communication skills, my ability to stay calm under pressure, and my commitment to treating every child with kindness and respect. I’m someone who genuinely enjoys spending time with kids and creating fun, memorable experiences with them. I love watching movies, making food, and planning simple activities that keep kids engaged and happy. I also enjoy learning new things and going out to places like the zoo, which makes it easy for me to come up with creative outings or educational moments for children.
