Hello! My name is Shay, and I’m excited to introduce myself as a potential babysitter for your family. With over 10 years of experience in childcare, I’ve had the pleasure of working with children of all ages, from newborns to teens, in a variety of settings. Whether in private homes, schools, summer camps, hotels, or at weddings, I’ve cared for families of all sizes, including twins and children with special needs and various abilities. I’m passionate about creating a safe, engaging, and fun environment where children can thrive. I focus on activities that encourage creativity, physical activity, and intellectual growth—whether it’s arts and crafts, outdoor play, educational games, or reading. I believe every child is unique, so I always tailor my approach to meet their specific needs and interests, ensuring they feel both supported and challenged. In addition to childcare, I can assist with homework, meal preparation, and light housekeeping. Read more I know how busy life can be, so I’m happy to pitch in wherever I can. I also prioritize healthy habits and can prepare nutritious meals and snacks that kids will enjoy. When it comes to screen time, I believe in offering more hands-on activities that foster real-world learning and interaction. Whether it’s going for a walk, working on a craft project, or engaging in imaginative play, I aim to provide opportunities for children to explore, create, and grow outside of a screen. Safety is my top priority. I am CPR and First Aid certified and always prepared to handle any situation with care and calm. I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your children, and I work hard to earn that trust through clear communication, reliability, and consistency. I’m flexible and happy to work with your family’s schedule, whether for after-school care, weekends, or date nights. I truly enjoy building strong, positive relationships with families and am always open to feedback to make sure your children’s needs are met. I’d love to learn more about your family and how I can best support you. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions or would like to arrange an interview. Looking forward to hearing from you soon! Warmly, Shay
