Hi there! My name is Jalisa , and I’ve been working with children for over 10 years. My background is in child development, and I’m passionate about helping kids learn, grow, and have fun in a safe and loving environment. As a mom of two, I truly understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your little ones. I treat every child as if they were my own — with patience, kindness, and consistency. I have experience caring for children of all ages, including infants, toddlers, and school-aged kids. I’m also comfortable and experienced working with children who have disabilities, providing individualized care and support to meet their unique needs. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, and safety is always my top priority. I enjoy planning creative activities, outdoor play, reading time, and hands-on learning experiences that make each day special. If you’re looking for a Read more dependable, nurturing, and experienced nanny to care for your children, I’d love to connect and learn more about your family’s needs!

Our babysitter has been with our family for the past three years, starting when my daughter was just 6 months old. From day one, she has been incredibly professional, caring, and talented in her work. As a mother, I have been able to focus on my career with peace of mind, knowing my daughter was in safe and loving hands. She treated my daughter like family and played a key role in her early development—teaching basic manners, supporting her learning, and preparing her for school. She is exceptionally skilled at handling toddlers, even managing tantrums with calm and patience. Her dedication, warmth, and professionalism have meant so much to our family, and I wholeheartedly recommend her as a babysitter to anyone looking for trustworthy and capable childcare.
