I recently graduated from college with a degree in Criminal Justice and Psychology, and I currently work at a middle school supporting students with special needs. Working with children has always been something I’m passionate about because I love helping them grow, learn, and feel confident in themselves. Being a sitter allows me to create a fun, safe, and supportive environment where kids can be themselves while also building positive routines and skills. Through my work at a school, I’ve gained valuable experience working with children with a wide range of needs, personalities, and learning styles. This has helped me become patient, adaptable, and attentive to each child’s individual needs. I’m comfortable helping with homework, encouraging positive behavior, and creating engaging activities that keep kids active and learning. Safety is very important to me, and I am CPR and First Aid certified. My background in psychology also helps me understand Read more child development and communicate effectively with kids in a supportive and encouraging way. In my free time, I love staying active, whether that’s going to the gym or hiking the Incline. I enjoy bringing that same energy to childcare by encouraging outdoor play, creativity, and fun activities. Families can count on me to be responsible, caring, and genuinely invested in the well-being of their children.

I had Madeline scheduled for an interview but she did not show up. She sent me a message an hour after the appointment time saying she was busy. Poor time management, 2 stars.

Madeline is amazing! I told her she could just relax since my kids are older and keep to themselves. So she did my dishes. She is very sweet and personable. Especially great for shy kids.

Maddie did a good job with our two kiddos. We loved that she took the initiative to bring along some toys and activities, and she was really flexible when our return home got delayed for over an hour.

Maddie made our first baby sitting experience a dream. She is extremely caring and brings her own supplies for entertainment. Our kiddos loved her and ask for her constantly. We found her within days notice and responds quickly. We will definitely ask for her help when needed without question.

Maddie has watched our kids one time now and as my son would say, he had 100 fun! Maddie came with activities for the kids, was inquisitive to understand our routines so that she could follow while watching our kids and did great with updates/communications while we were out. We’re looking forward to continuing to use Maddie as our date night sitter!
