As an experienced babysitter with five years of caregiving under my belt, I have honed my abilities as a competent and caring caregiver to the highest degree. Possessing both CPR certification and experience with special needs, I am highly skilled in providing a safe and nurturing environment to all children. In addition to my practical skillset, I am also a student of occupational therapy, which has given me a detailed understanding of child development and how to promote healthy habits in children. As a pediatric dental assistant, I understand the importance of making a child's experience delightful, and I actively utilize these skills to create a child-centred childcare environment that encourages exploration and maturation. In addition to providing superior childcare, I am able to assist with household tasks such as caring for errands and light cleaning. I am seeking a family with whom I can develop a strong bond and Read more nurture a long-standing relationship with.
