Meet Patrice

  • Comfortable with pets
  • Has a car

Hi everyone, my name is Patrice and I have been a babysitter for 8 years. It all started at home, where I would babysit my siblings for free. I found this to be an exciting responsibility that I was naturally good at. I enjoy babysitting because I can incorporate fun activities as well as educational games. I found that I was passionate about caring for children and decided to make babysitting a part-time job. I enjoy babysitting because I can assist children with learning, growing, and developing into their greatest potential. My interpersonal skills have allowed me to get along well with the children and the families that I have worked with. I am respectful, friendly, caring, and an effective communicator. Not only would you have a fun and caring babysitter, but you will also have a college graduate who is well versed in the educational system. This experience will Read more allow me to assist your child/children with homework questions as well as preparing for any tests or exams that they might have.
