I absolutely love being a sitter because I’ve always had a natural connection with kids. Being an aunt since I was 13, I’ve had the privilege of caring for my nieces and nephews, and it’s been an incredibly rewarding experience. I find so much joy in being able to create a safe, nurturing, and fun environment where children can feel at ease and parents can feel confident knowing their little ones are in good hands. Whether it's playing games, helping with homework, or simply providing companionship, I love being there to support children and make their time away from their parents enjoyable. It’s not just about watching over them, but building trust and making lasting memories. I’ve had the chance to care for kids from a very young age, starting as an aunt when I was just 13. Since then, I’ve gained a lot of experience by looking after my Read more younger siblings as well as my nieces and nephews. Over the years, I’ve babysat children of all ages—from newborns to pre-teens—and I’ve taken on a variety of tasks like preparing meals, helping with homework, and making sure bedtime routines go smoothly. I’ve also had experience caring for pets and juggling both child and pet care at the same time. My years of hands-on experience with my own family and other children in the neighborhood have given me a deep understanding of what it takes to be a reliable, loving sitter. In addition to my years of experience, I have developed skills in communication, problem-solving, and multitasking, which help me connect with children and make sure everything runs smoothly. I am CPR and first aid certified, which gives me the confidence to handle emergencies if they arise. I’m also skilled in managing routines, preparing simple meals, and keeping kids engaged with creative activities, whether that’s arts and crafts, outdoor play, or just reading stories. With my experience as both an aunt and a sitter, I’ve learned to be patient, flexible, and attentive to each child’s needs, creating a positive and supportive environment wherever I go.
