Why I Love Being a Sitter I’ve always loved caring for children—it comes naturally to me. As a mom of two and a former teacher, I know how important it is to create a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where kids feel seen and supported. I genuinely enjoy helping children grow, learn, and explore their unique personalities. Whether we’re reading stories, doing crafts, or just sharing a laugh, I find so much joy in building those special bonds. ⸻ My Experience My childcare journey started early—babysitting as a teen, then working summers as a camp counselor and certified lifeguard. I went on to earn a Master’s in Elementary Education and spent years teaching kindergarten, 2nd grade, and 6th grade. I also led the tennis program at Deer Mountain Day Camp, working with kids of all ages and skill levels. I’ve supported children in all stages of development and feel confident handling routines, schoolwork, playtime, and everything in between. ⸻ My Skills & Training    •   Master’s Degree in Elementary Education    •   Certified Lifeguard (past)    •   CPR & First Aid knowledge    •   Strong classroom management and communication skills    •   Experience with children from infants to pre-teens     I’m patient, attentive, and calm under pressure—qualities that help children feel secure and help parents feel at ease.

As someone who has always loved and connected with children, since I was a child, there has always been a special place in my heart for working with children! Even after getting my bachelors degree in psychology, I decided to focus on child psychology! I’ve worked with families as a babysitter, as a live out nanny, I’ve also worked at elementary schools and preschools and daycares! I love kids and I also love animals, particularly dogs, so if you have any pets, that’s always a plus for me! I do have a small dog sitting business on the side, but my childcare responsibilities always come first. For about 20 years now, on and off, I’ve worked with children ranging from age 2-14 years old. I’ve worked with children who had certain special needs such as being on the spectrum, having ADHD, sensory impairment issues, etc. , but I don’t have a TON of experience with that. I just really love kids and think it’s so important to be a positive source of support and encouragement for them as they grow and learn and decide who they are/how they want to navigate through this world!

Hi! I’m a responsible and energetic college senior graduating this May with a degree in Exercise Science, and I have several years of experience working with children, including babysitting throughout high school and working as a teacher’s assistant in a preschool where I supported daily routines, learning activities, and playtime. I love creating a fun, safe, and engaging environment for kids—whether that’s helping with homework, doing crafts, playing outside, or keeping a structured routine. I am CPR and First Aid certified, have my own car for transportation, and am comfortable caring for children of all ages. I’m reliable, patient, and enjoy building strong connections with both kids and families, and I’d love to support your family however I can!

I have almost ten years of experience working as a babysitter, caring for infants, toddlers, and preschool-aged children. Throughout the years, I have developed strong skills in providing a safe, nurturing, and supportive environment for children at different developmental stages. My responsibilities included feeding, diapering, helping with early learning activities, preparing meals, maintaining routines, and ensuring the children’s overall well-being. I truly enjoy spending time with children and supporting their growth through play, patience, and care. In addition to my professional experience, I am also a mother of four grown children, which has given me lifelong hands-on experience in childcare. Being a parent has strengthened my understanding of children’s needs, safety, and emotional development. I currently work part-time at a hospital, which has further enhanced my sense of responsibility, reliability, and compassion. I am now looking for a babysitter position during my free time, where I can continue doing what I love—caring for children and giving parents peace of mind knowing their kids are in good hands. Im currently working as a Baby sitter for 2 kids ages 4 & 8 in the morning from 6:30-9:00am from Mon-Thurs sometimes Friday too. And Im babysitting a 18months old every other weekends. So far thats my current Baby sitting job .

I absolutely adore being a sitter! For the past five years, I've had the joy of watching kids grow and learn. There's something special about building trust with them and their families. Knowing I can provide a safe and fun environment brings me so much happiness. I'm also CPR certified, so safety is always my top priority. Whether it's reading stories, playing games, or just being there to listen, I love being a part of their world. Each child is unique, and I enjoy discovering their individual personalities and interests. Being a sitter isn't just a job for me; it's a passion. I'm committed to creating positive experiences and lasting memories for every child I care for. It's incredibly rewarding to know I'm making a difference in their lives."
