I love being a sitter because I genuinely enjoy spending time with children and being a positive, supportive presence in their lives. It’s incredibly rewarding to watch kids learn, grow, and develop their personalities. I enjoy creating fun and engaging activities, encouraging creativity and curiosity, and helping children feel safe and confident. Building trusting relationships with families is also something I value deeply, and I take pride in being someone parents can rely on. I have over 8 years of childcare experience working with children from newborns through age 12. I’ve worked with several private families as both a full-time and part-time nanny, as well as providing occasional babysitting. My experience includes infant care, planning age-appropriate activities, school pick-ups and drop-offs, homework help, meal preparation, and bedtime routines. I’m comfortable caring for multiple children at once and adapting to each family’s routines and parenting styles. Families I’ve worked with often Read more describe me as dependable, attentive, and highly communicative. In addition to my childcare experience, I hold a Bachelor of Applied Science in Organizational Leadership, which strengthened my skills in communication, organization, and problem-solving—qualities that translate directly into childcare and working closely with families. I am also currently pursuing a Master of Science in Health Services Administration. I bring patience, strong communication, and a calm, positive approach to every family I work with, and my goal is always to create a safe, supportive, and fun environment where children feel cared for and parents have peace of mind.
