I am a Portland State University graduate with a bachelors of arts in Social Science, minor in psychology and Spanish. I have worked as a Girl Scouts summer activities leader for 23 girls grades first-fourth. As an activities leader, I facilitated science, art and life skills/healthy living. I love creating safe spaces for children to express themselves and be creative. I am a very family oriented person. I am the oldest of three and have spent a lot of my time helping my family raise the small ones in our family. I am currently only available Friday afternoons and weekends. I look forward to getting to know you and meeting your family!

I bring patience, creativity, and a sense of fun to every moment, whether it’s storytime, crafts, outdoor adventures, or homework help.

I take safety seriously while still keeping things light and playful. My goal is to make every babysitting experience enriching, stress-free for parents, and full of laughter and learning for kids. Whether it’s exploring nature, trying a new craft, cooking together, or just sharing stories, I bring heart, energy, and attention to every family I work with. I’d love to be a trusted part of your child’s day and help them grow strong roots, big imaginations, and bright futures!
