I am a Junior Communications major at James Madison University who loves to be around kids! I love being a sitter because it allows me to make an impact in children's lives while supporting families. I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids and watching them grow and learn. I have several years of experience caring for children of various ages, from infants to preteens. I’ve worked with families regularly and also taken on short-term or occasional jobs. My experience includes feeding, planning activities, helping with homework, and managing routines like bedtime or school drop-offs. I’m also skilled in conflict resolution and communication, both with children and parents. I understand how to set boundaries while remaining compassionate and responsive to a child’s needs. These experiences and skills help me create a dependable, supportive presence in any household.
