Hello everyone! My name is Kelli. I am an infant-toddler specialist/childcare professional with extensive childcare training. -I am a full-time licensed home daycare provider/owner, specializing in infant-toddler care. :) This is my job 40+ hours per week. -I am currently looking for weekend (Friday, Saturday, Sunday) babysitting jobs at the moment. -I am infant, child & adult CPR, AED, and Basic First Aid Certified. -I am lead infant teacher and lead toddler teacher qualified & have done both, working in two different early childhood learning centers (besides my own). -I also have my Bachelor's Degree from the University of Denver (graduated in June 2024). I'd describe my personality as patient, calm, and kind. I like working with kids because I love seeing them learn (& they teach me so many things too!). One thing you should know about me is I am a gentle and sensitive person, which is why I work well with children.
