Hello! My name is Shanna - I like to tell the kids it rhymes with banana. I'm a creative freelancer with a focus in writing and production, but I love to lean into my nurturing side to watch pets and kids as well. I have been watching children since I was about 12 years old, after my first Red Cross babysitting class. I love animals and children and devote much of my time and energy to them. I have a huge interest in health & wellness and I keep an active lifestyle. I am especially helpful with reading and writing related homework and I love to do crafts with the kids. Whether we are playing a board game, coloring, being active outside, or doing "kiddo yoga", my babysitting nights are always full of laughter and smiles. The greatest reward is the smile on a child's face and a grateful hug goodnight. I love to see them learn, grow, and become filled with wonder. I have experience with all ages, from infants to playful toddlers to angsty pre-teens. I intend to have children of my own one day, but for now I'd like to help your family and share the love I have to offer with yours! *Clean driving record *Brand new clear recent background check *I don't drink alcohol at all and am in good health - I'm never going to show up to the job hungover or exhausted from partying. *Need help with light organizing, folding kids laundry, supervision during a birthday party, washing bottles? I've got you. *My work background and skill set also aid in my ability to communicate well, establish clear boundaries while respecting that of others and encourage children's body safety and consent (I'm not the type to force a kid to hug me and allow them to seek comfort or offer as appropriate.) I feel competent in helping with homework and especially love to help teach reading, writing, and some sciences. I have a very creative side, helping kids with things like creating our own story book or custom made flash cards. *Glowing references available. My babysitting and pet care clients have been loyal and trust me in their homes with their loved ones. They'd be happy to speak to you about my character. Note: As of 2026, I also have a certification in nonviolent crisis intervention, specifically to support those with mental or emotional disabilities and have worked with clients with autism, adhd, ocd, and grief or depression.
