Hi, my name is Carol! I have been babysitting for about 15 years (12 years professionally) and I am also a mom to a 10-year-old! Along with raising my son, I’ve helped raise my younger brothers and my nephews. I have worked in my church's nursery since I was 12 years old, took and passed the Child Development course in high school, and worked at Minnieland Academy from 2009-2010. I am comfortable with all ages, from newborns to teenagers. I also have extensive experience with special needs children, specifically with Autism and non-verbal communication. My own son is on the spectrum, and it has taught me so much about patience and finding unique ways to connect with kids who see the world differently. I love caring for kids because they are just so joyful and authentic; they live in the here and now. I find they often teach me just Read more as much as I teach them! While I am the authority figure, I don’t believe in "bulldozing" kids, I prefer to listen, ask questions, and be a positive influence. I have experience with: - Morning care -Weekend care -Overnight care -House sitting/supervision -Date night(s) I also have great references upon request!

I found Carol in a pinch and she completely pulled through for me and my family! She arrived on time, and my kids (ages 6 and 10) IMMEDIATELY gravitated towards her; my son---a social butterfly though slow to warm--immediately brought out his Pokemon book and started reading with her. She is awesome, and we'll hire her again in a heartbeat.
