Openminded dependable babysitter ready to assist a family function at their best!!! Everyday should be fresh, exciting & purposeful, however downtime is important to maintain a healthy balance. One of the main things I pride myself in is my ability to communicate with kids, and I adore watching them grow & develop. I’m very respectful of various ethnic & social backgrounds. Also I’m familiar with different developmental stages, and have cared for infants just a few months old to preteens/ teens. Besides knowing the kids’ language, I’m a huge fan of creating fun games, playing sports, being crafty, taking pictures, watching movies, playing with animals, and unleashing my endless creativity for fun with spurts of educational moments :) It’s a strong belief of mine that it’s not old fashioned to teach proper manners & upkeep good etiquette while young...Plus it’s adorable when a 2 year old speaks properly! Having a Read more brother who has severe ADHD I’ve learned how to manage the symptoms, along with medication or without. As well as techniques which allow for a quick calm down, especially before bed time. A big part of that process, and my own personal life has been practicing mindful breathing & meditation. That’s something which could be beneficial for many youngsters who suffer from an array of disorders ranging from anxiety, depression, ADHD, PTSD/ trauma, to sleeping disorders or even nightmares. I am a mom of a baby boy born in December 2020. ADDITIONAL: *background check available,* own a car, speak fluent English & Polish, newborn care, infant care, overnight care, homework help, pet sitting, laundry, grocery shopping, organizational help, light meal prep. & cleaning.
