I’m a caring, dependable mom of three with many years of hands-on experience raising children from infancy through school age. I truly love being with little ones and creating a calm, loving environment where they feel safe, happy, and understood. When my own children were babies and toddlers, I made their baby food, followed gentle routines, and focused on healthy meals, naps, and lots of one-on-one attention — and I bring that same thoughtful, nurturing care to the families I work with.
I believe children learn best through connection and play, so I spend time on the floor engaging with little ones, reading stories, encouraging imaginative play, and getting outside for fresh air and nature walks whenever possible. I’m patient, warm, and very reliable, and I understand how important trust is when you leave your child with someone. I also know that with children, not every moment runs perfectly — and that’s okay. I stay calm, flexible, and supportive when days feel busy or unpredictable.
I’m also very comfortable caring for school-age children and helping them stay engaged after busy school days with reading, creative activities, and homework support or gentle direction as needed. I provide in-home care and do not transport children by car, but I’m happy to walk children to and from nearby schools, parks, or activities when appropriate.
I value working in partnership with parents, respecting family routines and parenting styles, and communicating openly about each child’s needs and progress. I’m attentive about safety and creating a secure environment, and families can count on me to be punctual and dependable. I’m also comfortable around pets — I’ve cared for fish, guinea pigs, and reptiles, and I adore dogs (cats are lovely too!). I’m happy to provide both consistent weekday care and dependable evening or date-night help so parents can feel confident and at ease.
