As I am currently working on my early childhood education degree, I am grateful for the opportunities I have to practice what I learn from my college classes to the families I work with. Creating a safe and fun environment for the children is my number one priority. Along with this, I prioritize listening to the child’s needs and good communication with the children’s parents. I also have experience in teaching children’s music classes for 6 years.

Hi there! I’m a warm, reliable caregiver with over 5 years of professional pediatric experience supporting children and families, along with many years of babysitting throughout college and beyond. My background in childhood development along with the many young children in my family have given me a strong understanding of children 6 months and beyond, along with how to support children’s emotional, social, and developmental needs at every stage. I believe in fostering play and curiosity while maintaining a safe and nurturing environment. Some of the activities I love are playing games, pretend play, music, and playing outside! I take great pride in being a caregiver that families are able to trust and rely on. I’d love the opportunity to connect with your family and I look forward to chatting!
