We also enjoy art and creating things, a good movie night and spending time with family.

Hi! I am a recent college graduate from JMU who is living in Harrisonburg and looking to help out families :) I have provided care for local families and those living closer to an hour away. I like working with kids because I like getting to experience lots of joyful, simplistic interactions and providing teaching moments. I love how working with kids is rewarding for everyone all around. I can allow a parent/caregiver to feel comfortable putting their children in reliable hands while I serve as a role model and engage in activities. I started working with kids my freshman year of high school. I have been working with kids for nine years. I have watched children from 20+ different families from ages 4 mos-11 years across various settings. I have experience watching children at my own home, parent/caregiver's home, church, hotels, and wedding venues. In addition, I've spent time substitute teaching for preschool-middle school classes. I am certified in CPR and first aid. In my spare time, I like to do anything outside such as going on long walks, playing spikeball and pickleball, and going hiking! I also love baking. My skills include patience, communication, and organization.
