My name is Shay, and I’ve spent over 10 years caring for children of all ages—from newborns to teenagers—both in the U.S. and overseas. I’ve taught English through my church, helped care for children within my own family, and supported new mothers as they adjusted after welcoming their babies. I’m a caring, patient, and reliable babysitter who loves creating a safe, calm environment for children. I’m attentive, nurturing, and respectful of family routines, and I’m happy to help with playtime, meals, and light tidying. I take children’s safety and parents’ trust very seriously and am open to occasional or regular babysitting.
