I’m a responsible, creative, and caring sitter who genuinely enjoys working with kids. I have experience babysitting children of various ages and love bringing a mix of fun and structure to each day. Whether it's playing games, helping with homework, or leading hands-on projects, I focus on creating meaningful, engaging experiences. I also offer light house cleaning and tutoring, making it easier for busy families to stay on top of everything. I'm great at setting boundaries, staying calm under pressure, and connecting with kids in a warm and respectful way. I'm very flexible and ready to help right now. I recently graduated with a degree in Computer Science and minors in Entrepreneurship and Management of Technology (GPA: 3.7) from the University of Minnesota, and I’m currently working on building my own startup. Because of that, I have a lot of control over my schedule and can commit to mornings, evenings, Read more weekends, or even last-minute requests. My open availability means I can be a reliable go-to for recurring care or emergency needs while still bringing the structure, responsibility, and creativity you'd expect from someone managing a business of their own. Much of my experience comes from being an older sibling. I regularly cared for my younger siblings growing up, often taking on a parental role, especially during challenging times. That gave me a deep sense of responsibility and empathy early on. I’ve also babysat for family friends on both a regular and one-time basis. I still have close, supportive relationships with my siblings, and they often come to me for guidance, even more than our parents. These experiences shape the way I connect with kids: with patience, understanding, and genuine care. I care deeply about creating a positive, respectful, and nurturing environment where kids can grow and feel safe. I love helping kids explore the world in creative, hands-on ways that build confidence and spark joy. In my free time, I enjoy cooking, reading books that help me learn and grow, and creating something new (very often with technology), things I’d be excited to share with your family. Whether it’s working on a craft project, diving into a book together, or supporting their daily routine, I’ll be a calm, encouraging, and dependable presence in your child’s life.
