Hi families! I’m a warm, patient, and reliable caregiver who genuinely loves working with children. I have experience with toddlers and young kids, and I enjoy creating fun, engaging, and safe environments. I’m attentive, organized, and happy to help with daily routines!

While this would be my first time baby sitting officially, I have a strong background in working with children through my experience as a student athlete over the past four years, where I engaged with kids in various settings such as camps and after games. My time in these roles has honed my patience and understanding, qualities that are important for caregiving. Additionally, growing up with my mother, a neonatologist in the NICU, has given me invaluable insights into infant care and a deep appreciation for working with babies. I have often gone with my mother to her work, which has made me even more passionate about caring for young children and has given me hands-on experience. These experiences make me well-qualified to be a reliable and caring babysitter.

I have a background in psychology and three years of experience working with children aged 2 to 12. This experience has allowed me to support children’s emotional, social, and developmental needs while managing behavior and creating a nurturing environment. My academic training gives me a strong foundation in child development, which I use to guide my caregiving approach. I am empathetic, patient, and adaptable, always aiming to connect with children and provide them with the support they need to thrive. I excel at managing behavior, offering emotional support, and implementing age-appropriate developmental activities. While my focus has been on children, I am also skilled in handling household services, ensuring an organized and positive environment for families. My nurturing and caring nature, combined with my understanding of psychology, makes me an effective and compassionate caregiver.

I am a second-oldest sibling to 6 (one older sister!) and a private music teacher for all ages! In addition to regular care, I am happy to provide voice, piano and string lessons. I’m happy to do sitting in the mornings before work and open to date nights/ overnight depending on the circumstances.

I have 10+ years of experience caring for children. I have cared for many children of the years. I am a retired nurse of 35 years. I love children and have two adult daughters of my own.
