I love being a sitter because caring for children comes naturally to me, especially as a single mother to my 3-year-old son. I understand how important it is for parents to feel confident that their children are in safe, caring hands. I enjoy creating a nurturing environment where kids can feel comfortable, have fun, and thrive. Along with raising my son, I have experience caring for children of various ages, from infants to school-aged kids. My background as a registered nurse has given me hands-on experience in providing compassionate care, maintaining safety, and managing daily routines. I’ve also helped with meal preparation, homework, and engaging children in creative and educational activities. As a registered nurse, I am CPR and First Aid certified, with the skills to handle emergencies calmly and effectively. I have excellent communication, patience, and organizational skills. My healthcare background has prepared me to manage schedules, administer medications Read more if needed, and provide attentive care to children with special needs. Being a mother has taught me even more about patience, empathy, and creating a loving environment for little ones.
