My name is Courtney, but you can call me Ella. I’ve been doing childcare my whole life, unpaid childcare from age 6-12 with my younger siblings, paid childcare through family, friends, and neighbors from age 13-19, and experience working in daycare settings and as a nanny. I also hold a bachelors degree in criminal justice. I love being a sitter because it gives me the chance to have an impact on the growth and development of these tiny people, and to impact their knowledge and learning as well, and allows me to see the world through a child’s eyes again. I’m very good with kids, I always have been! Playing make believe, learning about new things and creating new experiences, and reading stories are some of my favorite things to do with the kiddos I work with. I love to teach the kids about nature and the way the world works too! I can provide references upon request.

Being a sitter, whether for children, is a role that brings immense joy and responsibility. My love for being a sitter is primarily from the rewarding connections I build with the individuals I care for, as well as the opportunity to contribute positively to their lives. The laughter of a child during playtime the joy I gain from this job. This role allows me to engage with different personalities, understand their needs, and provide support in a nurturing environment, which I find deeply fulfilling. Over the years, I have accumulated a variety of experiences that have honed my skills as a sitter. I undertook babysitting jobs for families in my neighborhood, where I learned to adapt my approach to suit different children's personalities, ranging from shy toddlers to energetic pre-teens. My experiences are not only limited to child care; I have also provided pet sitting services, caring for dogs, cats, and small animals. This has allowed me to develop a broad perspective on the needs of various species, ensuring their well-being and happiness while their owners are away. In terms of skills and training, I have invested time in certifications that enhance my abilities as a sitter. I completed a CPR and First Aid course, giving me the confidence to handle emergencies should they arise. I am also a ECC student, it’s my last year and I am studying Early Childhood Education.

Hi, I’m Taylor! I’m a student at ECC studying Early Childhood Education and have over three years of hands-on experience in early learning. I work as an assistant teacher at JCC Downtown. I’m CPR/First Aid and MAT certified. I would describe myself as patient, curious, and reliable. I love creating safe, engaging environments where kids can learn, play, and express their creativity. Whether it’s storytime, arts and crafts, or baking projects, I enjoy planning fun, hands-on activities that keep children entertained and growing. In my free time, I love reading, drawing, painting, and writing — and I don’t mind getting a little messy (and cleaning up!) if it means kids are having fun. Parents can count on me for clear communication, dependability, and genuine care for their children.
