I am a caring, responsible, and reliable caregiver with experience working with infants and toddlers. I truly enjoy creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where children feel loved, supported, and encouraged to learn and grow. I have experience with daily childcare routines, including feeding, diaper changes, meal preparation, nap schedules, playtime, and age-appropriate developmental activities. I love planning fun and educational activities such as reading, arts and crafts, sensory play, music, outdoor adventures, and creative games that encourage learning through play. Families describe me as patient, attentive, trustworthy, organized, and proactive. I believe open communication is essential, and I always strive to support each family's routines, values, and parenting style. My most recent position was caring for a baby for over a year, from 9 months old to 21 months old. I have also cared for newborns, 3-month-old infants, and 1-year-olds, which has given me a strong understanding of the different stages of infant development and the unique needs of each age. In addition, I have experience caring for children ages 4, 7, and 9, as well as managing the needs of multiple children at once. I look forward to meeting your family!
