• Certified Nursing Assistant
• Registered Nurse
• Comfortable with pets

Over the past six years, I’ve had the privilege of babysitting for a variety of families, which has enriched my understanding of childcare and child development. I started when I was a teenager, caring for neighborhood children, and gradually expanded my experience to include infants, toddlers, and school-aged kids. During this time, I’ve developed strong communication skills with both children and parents, ensuring that everyone feels comfortable and informed. I’ve learned to create engaging activities tailored to different age groups, from arts and crafts to outdoor games, fostering creativity and physical activity. I’ve also gained experience in managing bedtime routines, including reading stories and helping with homework. Safety has always been my top priority, and I’m well-versed in first aid and CPR, which adds an extra layer of reassurance for the families I work with. Additionally, I’ve navigated various challenges, such as helping children cope with separation anxiety or resolving Read more disputes between siblings, which has taught me patience and empathy. Overall, my six years of babysitting experience have not only made me more responsible and attentive but have also allowed me to build lasting relationships with the families I’ve worked with. I genuinely enjoy watching the children grow and develop, and I take pride in being a positive influence in their lives.

Trust & safety
