Hi! I'm a junior at Indiana University Bloomington studying clinical psychological science, and I've spent the last 5 years working with kids as a camp counselor and babysitter. I love being a sitter because kids see the world in such creative, honest ways, and I get to be part of their day-to-day fun. I especially enjoy working with kids ages 4 and up, where I can join in on games, crafts, and big imaginations, though I'm also happy to care for kids as young as 2. My goal is always for kids to feel safe, included, and proud of themselves, and for parents to feel confident while they're away. I have 5 years of childcare experience, including camp counseling and babysitting. I have experience working with neurodivergent and disabled children, and I understand that every kid learns, plays, and communicates differently. I take the time to learn what works for Read more each child and adapt to their needs, routines, and preferences. I'm happy to work with kids who need extra support, sensory-friendly routines, or visual schedules. I'm CPR and First Aid certified. My psychology coursework gives me a strong understanding of child development, behavior, and emotional regulation, which helps me stay patient, calm, and supportive, even during meltdowns and tough transitions. I'm reliable, communicative, and happy to follow your family's routines and house rules.

Trust & safety
