I love being a sitter because caring for children has always brought me joy and fulfillment. Watching kids grow, learn, and explore the world around them is so rewarding. I enjoy creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where kids feel comfortable, and I take pride in being someone families can trust. My first childcare job was babysitting in high school, where I was responsible for dinner, bath time, and bedtime routines. I cared for the same child for four years, often staying overnight and even full weekends. After that, I worked as a full-time nanny for an infant, handling meals, nap schedules, diaper changes, and daily activities from morning until evening. I also have experience working at a stay-away children’s camp as both a staff member and lifeguard, giving me experience with a wide range of ages and group settings. Skills & Training • Infant and child care (feeding, Read more diapers, naps, routines) • Multi-age care experience (infants through school-aged children) • Lifeguard training background with strong safety awareness • Ability to plan engaging activities that are both fun and developmentally supportive • Dependable, patient, and nurturing personality
Trust & safety
We encourage parents to conduct their own screenings using the background check tools. See what each of the badges covered, or learn more about keeping your family safe by visiting the Trust & Safety Center.
