I am very responsible, trustworthy, with a genuine love for children and the energy to engage them through play and creativity. I also agree patience is key and understanding kids emotions is important when caring for them. I have strong communication skills to keep parents updated and quick thinking in unexpected situations. I am willing to follow all household rules and making sure I do light house cleaning making sure everything is tidy when you return. I can also help out with laundry as well and pets or any help needed in the home. also ensuring that your children are happy, safe, and well cared for. I have two children of my own and been caring for kids since I was 12 years old. I also have experience with caring for autistic kids as well being I have a niece who is autistic and was nonverbal at one point.
I have experience caring for school-age children, about 4 years old and up, and I’m also comfortable caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes. With kids, I’m happy to help with playtime, crafts, outdoor activities, homework, meals, and keeping their normal routine going. I try to be patient, calm, and easygoing while still making sure everyone is safe and cared for. I also love dogs and have experience with walking, feeding, playing, and giving them attention based on their personality and needs. I’m comfortable with different energy levels and know how important it is to follow each family’s routine. Families can expect me to be dependable, respectful of their home, and attentive to both children and pets.

Hello, my name is Gabrieanne! I am 18 years old and a sophomore at Trinity College. I have always loved working with children, whether to engage with them in their own interests or help them with their homework. I started as a kindergarten monitor while I was in the 5th grade and I had a weekly job for 2 years in my junior and senior year of high school babysitting an 8 year old. I would cook for her, take her to the park, and play with her and her bunny. I have also had lots of experience looking after my younger cousins on my own, unpaid, but a job nonetheless! I am a patient person and always willing to work with children rather than just telling them what to do, while still making sure they are respectful to others and kind to themselves. I also owned cats growing up, 3 of them in total! I know how to play with cats and respect their boundaries. I would greatly appreciate any job to help pay for my time at Trinity!

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
