I’ve always had a deep love for working with children, a passion that started from growing up in a large family. Being surrounded by little ones my entire life taught me the importance of patience, kindness, and creating fun, engaging environments where children feel valued and safe. What I love most about working with children is their genuine curiosity, boundless energy, and unique perspectives. They have a way of bringing joy and light to every situation, and I feel privileged to be part of their lives during their formative years. Over the years, l've had the opportunity to care for children of various ages, from infants to school-aged kids, as well as special needs, which has taught me how to handle different situations with patience and adaptability. I have taken on a variety of jobs ranging from short-term care for a few hours to overnight stays lasting several days. I’ve Read more gained valuable experience in adapting to different routines, personalities, and family needs. My ability to form connections with children quickly, understand their needs, and create a structured yet fun environment is something I pride myself on. What sets me apart is not just my experience but my genuine dedication to each child’s well-being and development. I go beyond simple supervision by actively engaging with children through activities that stimulate learning and creativity. Whether it’s helping with homework, playing educational games, or simply offering a listening ear, I strive to create a positive, supportive space. I understand the trust it takes to leave your children in someone else’s care, and I am committed to ensuring that your child feels safe, happy, and respected every step of the way.
