With over 16 years of experience in early childhood education—both as a childcare center owner and an operations manager—my passion for working with children runs deep. While I’ve had the privilege of leading teams, supporting families, and managing full-scale childcare operations, what continues to bring me the most joy is the hands-on connection I get through babysitting. There’s something incredibly special about the one-on-one time babysitting allows. It gives me the opportunity to focus entirely on a child’s individual needs, interests, and development in a calm, personal setting. Every child is unique, and I love being able to adapt to their personality and help them learn, laugh, and feel safe. Babysitting brings me back to the heart of why I got into childcare in the first place: to make a difference in a child’s day—and life. Whether it’s engaging in play-based learning, comforting them when they’re upset, or simply sharing Read more giggles over storytime, those small but powerful moments are what fuel my passion. My background has given me a deep understanding of child development, health and safety, and what it means to truly partner with families. As a babysitter, I bring not just experience, but intention. I’m not just there to supervise—I’m there to support, encourage, and care with purpose. At the end of the day, I love being a babysitter because it’s personal, impactful, and meaningful. And even after all these years, the joy of seeing a child thrive never gets old.
