Imogen Whittier
$21 per hour for 1 child

I have over six years of experience providing dependable childcare, including with newborns, children ages 2–8, and kids with special needs. I hold a Master’s in Clinical Psychology, am working toward my doctorate, and have completed coursework in Early Child Development. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, which ensures safety in my care. Families describe me as patient, calm, creative, and friendly. I love engaging children in outdoor play, sports, games, and puzzles that encourage both fun and learning. I’m comfortable caring for up to three children, and I always follow household rules and communicate clearly with parents. In addition to childcare, I’m happy to help with cooking, meal prep, and light housekeeping. My goal is to support children’s growth while bringing peace of mind to families.

Hi I'm Kimberly! I've been a mother for 12 years. I have multiple children, and have always been the go-to babysitter for friends and family. I enjoy having littles around, as do my children. I believe parents know best, and thus I try my best to provide a personalized approach to each child based on the family's needs.
