I have been a sitter for over 20 years, and am currently pursuing a master’s degree in developmental psychology. I have experience caring for kids of all ages, and am comfortable working with larger families and children with special needs. Working with children is something about which I am passionate and which I feel a calling to pursue. As a sitter I strive to strike a balance between energetic play and calm structure. I see my job as having 3 primary duties. Most importantly, keeping the children that I am watching safe. Next, maintaining the house rules and routine, so that children have a sense of stability when their parents are gone. Finally, I want to engage with the kids I am watching and help them have fun- I want "having a sitter" to be a positive experience, something to which they look forward! Beyond sitting I've participated in Big Brothers/Big Sisters and I have taught both martial arts and Sunday school classes for the last 20+ years (typically PK-3rd). I'm CPR and first aid certified, a non-smoker, and fully vaccinated. I’ve been blessed to work with many great families, and I am happy to provide references. Please reach out if you have questions- I am happy to chat. All the best!

Incredibly kind and professional. Truly helped us new parents have a few hours for a date night. Very grateful for taking care of our little one!!

I am a warm, intentional, and dependable caregiver and who loves supporting families and creating calm, welcoming homes. I am highly organized, resourceful, and steady, and I bring peace and structure to busy households through thoughtful routines and attentive care. I have raised two emotionally healthy young women and have welcomed and supported several young girls through difficult seasons, loving them as family. I am nurturing, emotionally grounded, and naturally attentive to the needs of both children and parents. Families often describe me as calm, reliable, and encouraging. I take pride in creating environments where children feel safe, valued, and supported, and where parents feel confident and at ease.

Available for date night, event, wedding and overnight jobs (I LOVE repeat families!). Right now I have wrapped up nannying for an infant. My pediatric RN program starts Aug 24th and I'm applying for my first hospital-based nursing jobs. Starting Mon, July 20th, looking for 4 hr+ bookings, but preferably full 8-9 hour days. From August 24th onwards I'll be available full days Mon, Tues, Wed and Fri. On Thursdays, due to my class schedule, I can work 8 AM - 12 PM. Quick heads up: I am not available for after school positions. Please use the "Ask a Question" function if you need a specific date/time and I don't show availability. Hi! I am a native Floridian who has lived all over the Eastern Seaboard. I have been taking care of children for 20 years, since I was a kid myself. With two decades of experience and a university education under my proverbial belt, I am firm about my rates and minimum of 4 hours. I was a classroom teacher too. + U.S. Citizen + Native English Speaker + MINI Cooper owner + Non-smoker + Strong Swimmer + Passport Holder + Pet-friendly + Allergy-friendly + Previously epiPen certified + Understands Kashrut dietary laws + CPR/First Aid Certified + High-functioning Autism + Speech impediments + Hearing/vision impairments General Policies: 1. Minimum booking is 4 hours or $100. 2. EARLY RETURNS: Because I plan my time and budget around the hours booked, I ask to be paid for the entire booking, even if you come home early. 3. LATE RETURNS: I'm usually flexible on the end time of a booking, but please text/call me if you'll be late, especially if we have not discussed flexibility beforehand. 4. I reserve the right to collect the total amount owed and leave if children and/or parents are ill and the illness is not previously disclosed. I work for a number of children throughout the week and do not want to unnecessarily make them or my 91 year old grandmother, whom I visit frequently, needlessly sick. 5. One cancellation is okay from a family, but after two I may choose not to accept any more bookings from you. 6. I do not consent to being recorded in any manner outside of the typical camera aimed at a child's bed/crib. 7. I am totally open to working interviews. I reserve in person unpaid interviews for long-term positions only. 8. For families visiting Charlotte, I always look for cheap parking. An uber may be requested if that's the best option. 9. Major holidays = time and a half.
