Looking for work as a babysitter or nanny

Meet Terita
- Comfortable with pets
I have worked in preschools and with individual families receiving cpr and first aid training and extensive knowledge in child development. In each setting I was able to develop long term relationships with families with children from ages 12wks to 12years. I am strongly focused on making sure children have the best early childhood experiences because these moments really do shape their lives. I have been called a chameleon many times because I am able to use what I have learned and apply it directly to a child's specific needs. It is very important to me that children feel loved, happy, safe and confident in themselves. Through lots of messy crafts, silly songs, fun games and reading your child will grow past your expectations.

Terita was a big help with my kids especially being that I needed her help last minute. My daughter is at the age where she tells it all and she loved Ms. Terita. She will be a great fit if you have busy kids. I will definitely book her again if I ever need a sitter.

Terita was a big hit with my kids. She was punctual, professional, and immediately connected with my children. She asked all the right questions about my kids, adhered to our schedule, and communicated with me throughout the night. Both of my children enjoyed their time with her and can't wait for her to sit again!
