Meet Basil

I’m currently working toward my degree in psychology, which has deepened my understanding of child development and how to connect with kids of all ages. I’ve been babysitting for six years, providing care for multiple families, and I’ve worked with children ranging from 2 months to 15 years old. Throughout my experience, I’ve had the opportunity to care for kids at different stages of development. Whether it’s bottle-feeding infants, playing with toddlers, helping school-aged kids with homework, or providing guidance to teenagers, I adapt my approach to meet the unique needs of each child. I’m also CPR and First Aid certified, so I’m trained to handle emergencies if they arise. I’m comfortable with everything from general supervision to helping with transportation, and I also have a reliable vehicle for any pickup or drop-off needs. I take pride in offering safe, nurturing care while building trust with both children and parents. Read more I’m excited to learn more about your family and how I can assist you!
