Hello I'm Erika! I’m a mom of a 5 year old son!The last Children I babysat for called me the best caregiver they've ever had reason being, we always managed to stay active and keep busy by doing arts and crafts playing outside whatever it might be. Previously I worked in a daycare I've always had a passion for watching children! My number one thing is safety keeping your child safe is so important to me I will keep them safe as if their my own! I also like communication to know whats going on and nobody is wondering anything such as checking in once a day or sending a picture to show what were up to during the day! I have various cultural competence skills. If there is anything else you would like to ask please let me know! Thanks!

She was absolutely wonderful with my three kids (all under 3!), which is no small task. She was warm, patient, and immediately made both me and the kids feel comfortable. She handled everything calmly and confidently, and it was such a relief knowing they were in good hands. She’s also very easy to talk to and communicative. We would happily have her back again!

Hi my name is Charity but I go by Ms Harmony. I have over 20 years of experience working with young children. I was an infant and toddler preschool teacher for 15 years and a professional Super Nanny for 10years. I majored in Early Childhood Education and Child Development and became a Certified Newborn Care Specialist, Postpartum Doula, Peer Breastfeeding Support Counselor and a Professionally Certified Parenting Coach. Caring for young children and supporting parents is my passion and it brings so much joy into my life. I have a very special gift for comforting and connecting with newborns, infants and toddlers. I am very patient and can handle a crying, frustrated or difficult baby with the ability to respond to their needs in an affectionate and nurturing way. Keeping children safe is so important to me that I became a certified instructor through the American Red Cross to use and teach Adult, Child and Infant CPR/AED and First Aid to new parents and caregivers. Please feel free to contact me if you think we would be a good match. I look forward to hearing from you soon. Warm Regards, Ms Harmony

Charity was very professional and kind.

Hi, I’m a college student looking to help out a family who need a sitter. I would describe myself as athletic, as I like to stay active. I’m also creative and love doing art activities. To add on, I’m empathetic and also patient, especially when it comes to kids. I have a variety of experience from babysitting while in high-school, to working at the YMCA as a summer camp counselor these past three summers. I’ve worked with kids as young as 1 up to the age of 15.

Ashley is wonderful! She is very friendly, engaging, and caring. My 20-month-old daughter felt very at ease with her and had a great time together. Thank you Ashely!
