I am a new nurse with a strong passion for working with children. I have many years of experience caring for kids of all ages, from newborns to teens. My background includes volunteering at church and schools, serving as a counselor, and working in a licensed family daycare. I also have experience supporting children with special needs. Along with childcare, I am comfortable with pets and can provide pet care when needed. I love caregiving because it allows me to make a difference in children’s lives. Whether through play, learning activities, or simply being present, I find joy in helping kids grow and feel safe. My nursing background and CPR/first aid training give me the skills to remain calm and responsible in emergencies. Something personal about me is that I am very energetic, love to laugh, and connect easily with children. I enjoy preparing healthy meals, being active, and creating fun, age-appropriate activities. I also have a reliable car for transportation and can help with light housekeeping. I am also flexible and available for occasional weekends and date nights if needed. I would love the opportunity to bring my energy, compassion, and skills to your family. Excellent references are available upon request!
