Hi! My name is AJ! I have one child, a 10yo boy, and I’ve always enjoyed spending time with kids and creating a fun, safe environment where they can learn and grow. I have 5+ years of experience working with children of various ages, from toddlers to preteens. I have worked as a CNA in a nursing facility for a few years as well. People often describe me as patient, energetic and dependable. I love activities like arts and crafts, reading time, and outdoor play. I take pride in being attentive and reliable, making sure parents feel confident while they’re away. Outside of babysitting, I enjoy cooking & baking, painting & crocheting, reading and long walks in nature. I often incorporate these into activities with kids as well!
