Experience: I have been caregiving and caretaking since I was 12 years old. It began when my dad would drop us off at his friend’s daycare center and I remember helping prepare food, assisting with art projects, changing of diapers and connecting with the little ones. I have previous work history with SitterTree based out of Georgia and I worked there before the COVID quarantine, it was truly such a special time. I felt a special connection to each family I worked for and we were all sad when we had to part ways. One of my favorite stories about my time with SitterTree was how a family nicknamed me “Poppy” because I would bring a suitcase of art supplies and toys to play with the kids and it reminded them of Mary Poppins. Fun Facts: I am the eldest of 5 kids and my youngest sibling is 16. I am a multimedia artist and I love connecting with children through art/creative projects. I also am a former D1 Rugby player and former youth coach so I love to stay active and do my best to keep kids off of screens while we are together. I am an “animal whisperer” and tend to forge special bonds with animals of all shapes and sizes. I have a 7 year old kitty named Aspen.

I have extensive experience caring for children, families, and individuals in both professional and personal settings. I worked as a Supervisor at a daycare, where I was responsible for the safety, well-being, and development of children of different ages. I also have experience supporting families through my background in psychology, which has given me strong skills in communication, empathy, patience, and understanding individual needs. In addition, I have years of experience caring for older adults and family members, including helping with daily routines, providing companionship, and ensuring a safe and supportive environment. I am also comfortable caring for pets and understand the importance of consistency, responsibility, and attention to detail.
