My name is Crystal. I am 40 years young with lots of time in childcare. I have two grown young men both looking into being in the arts. One loves music and making sounds. The other a graphic arts designer. As high schooler, I took Child Development because I've always loved children. I would say I want ten however, I was only able to have two. I am looking to foster a child and adopt. I was adopted at two weeks old so I learned to love unconditionally at an early age. I love to teach. I took seven years of Spanish in school and I'm refreshing as I continue to teach. I'm also learning sign language. I have numerous clock hours and CPR training from my current and previous jobs. My goal is to open my own center and retire watching all my babies grow in productive and respectful individuals. I AM VERY COVID CAUTIOUS! My son is diabetic and lives at home.

Hi, I’m Lydia! I’ve always loved being around kids. Growing up in a big family with 18 siblings gave me lots of experience with children of all ages and personalities. Four of my siblings have special needs, and from an early age I helped care for them—whether that meant lending a hand with daily routines, being patient when they needed extra support, or just being a steady friend they could count on. Over the years, I’ve also worked with children on the autism spectrum. In my job with a company that provided support services, I assisted families with potty training, food training, and building language skills. While the company used ABA (Applied Behavior Analysis), I personally don’t agree with every method, and those experiences really shaped the way I see caregiving. They taught me not only how to support growth, but also what not to do—helping me focus on raising confident, happy kids by encouraging their strengths and respecting who they are. By the time I was 12, I was already babysitting without adult supervision, and that taught me responsibility and confidence at a young age. I learned how to keep kids entertained, how to create a safe environment, and most importantly, how to be someone they could trust. When I was 16, I even traveled to England to work as a caregiver for a woman with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). That experience expanded my caregiving skills—I helped with laundry, cooking meals, assisting her in the bathroom, giving her showers, and making sure she was comfortable at night. What I enjoy most about working with kids is knowing that every interaction, no matter how small, shapes the way they see the world. Sometimes it’s through teaching, other times it’s just through listening, laughing, or playing alongside them. To me, caregiving isn’t only about keeping children safe and cared for—it’s about giving them kindness, encouragement, and a sense of joy that will stay with them as they grow.

I do have lots of experience with children. I have experience working with children from 6weeks to 10 years of age. I do lots of activities like painting with the children. I am teacher qualified and CPR qualified. I am flexible. I have my degree bachelors degree in early childhood education.

Hi! My name is Daniella and I have enjoyed persuing my passion of working with children of all ages for the past 11 years. During this time I was able to complete some schooling toward my Early childhood education degree and I am currently re-enrolled part time. All while working as an Assistant teacher for a Montessori school and several daycare centers, for children varying from newborn to 6 years old and working as a Nanny for several families. I truly have enjoyed working one on one with the families in their homes the most. Allowing me to provide loving, attentive and hands on care to their children that they would otherwise not be able to receive from a center. As a part of our everyday we enjoy various arts, crafts, baking, reading books to one another and enjoying outdoor trips/activities as long as the weather allows us! My responsibilities have included getting the children up, dressed and fed before being sent off to school/daycare. As well as light house upkeep including (dishes, vacuuming, and picking up after ourselves. Providing after school care with snacks,play time, serving dinner and following bed time routines (including bath time). I also have experience in potty training and would be more then happy to assist a family with maintaining their own set "potty training routine" and helping to create one as well. I have several references and a resume available and look forward to being your family's next sitter!
