Hello, I am an experienced caregiver with a deep passion for working with children. I began babysitting at the age of 9, and over the years, I have earned the affectionate nickname of the "baby whisperer" from those who know me well. I owned and operated a successful at-home daycare, Little Elephants Playhouse, for four years, where I was responsible for creating daily curriculums, preparing meals, managing nap times, and providing overall care for up to five children simultaneously. Although I closed my daycare due to the pandemic, I have continued to offer part-time nanny services. I am a Certified Medical Assistant, and I hold current CPR, First Aid, and emergency training. My experience extends beyond child care, as I have also worked with the elderly. As a caregiver, my objective is to provide a safe, nurturing environment that supports the social, physical, and intellectual development of children. Having cared Read more for a wide range of children over the years, I consider caregiving a true gift and am excited to bring my expertise and dedication to supporting the growth and well-being of your child.
