Hi. My name is Itu. I’m a very dependable babysitter, who knows how to provide exceptional care for your children. I have 8 years experience with children of all ages starting from infants to teenagers. I’m well-versed in creating a fun, nurturing environment that kids love and parents trust. I’m CPR and First Aid Certified. And also as all families are unique, I don’t really have a specific way of how I do things, you tell me what you need and I do just that, adding a little bit where I think it’s needed but otherwise I tailor my approach to fit your child’s needs and your household routines.. I’m dedicated to making babysitting time special for your children and stress-free for you. Thank you! Chat to you soon..
