My babysitting journey began in 2011, caring for two neighborhood children—a 7-year-old boy and a 5-year-old girl. I cared for them after school, on some weekends, and throughout the summers. In the fall of 2014, I transitioned to a position at a local Y, where I served as an Assistant Teacher for many years. There, I worked with school-age children in the before and after school programs, and also spent time in the daycare with children of all ages, from babies and toddlers to preschoolers. For the past six months, I have been nannying for my sister's preemie newborn, who is now beginning daycare, providing full-time care from Monday to Friday. I am certified in CPR/AED and am known for my compassion and excellent relationships with the children I care for. I have a deep understanding of their emotions and excel in helping them navigate various situations.
