Hi! My name is Ashley and I’m a dedicated and reliable babysitter with about 5 years of experience caring for infants, toddlers, and young children. I truly enjoy creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where kids can learn, play, and feel comfortable. I enjoy helping families with one-time or occasional babysitting, pet care, or simply helping around the house and running errands. I’m patient, attentive, and always focused on keeping kids safe, engaged, and comfortable while following household routines. I’m also very comfortable around animals and happy to help with feedings, walks, drop-ins, or overnight sitting. I take trust seriously and aim to give parents peace of mind while they’re away, I look forward to meeting your family!
