As a highly experienced and genuinely passionate sitter, I'm thrilled to offer my services to your family! My love for children really grew from years of hands-on experience, starting with practically raising my two younger siblings from the time they were babies. With my single mom often traveling for work, I mastered everything from changing diapers and whipping up meals to doing school runs and tackling homework. My siblings are now 8 and 14, and our close bond has taught me so much about nurturing and guiding children through different stages. For the past four years, I've expanded on this by happily babysitting for lots of other families. This has only deepened my ability to connect with, nurture, and ensure kids are having a great time while staying safe. My skills go way beyond just the basics; I'm a really strong swimmer and can even teach your little ones, and thanks to my past as a tutor for kindergarteners and first graders, I'm great at helping with reading and learning. I absolutely love planning fun activities, whether it's arts and crafts or outdoor adventures. Plus, I drive, which makes school pickups, activity drop-offs, and exciting outings a breeze! When I'm not looking after kids, I love to cook, stay active with sports, and enjoy swimming and walking outside. These interests allow me to bring fresh energy and creative ideas to my childcare roles, ensuring that every day is engaging and fun. I'm confident that my blend of practical experience, genuine warmth, and a proactive approach will make me an excellent addition to your family's support system.

I have extensive and varied experience in childcare, having had the privilege of working with numerous families and children of different ages. I've babysat for 5 families in Montreal, 3 families in Missouri., and 2 families in New York, successfully managing up to 4 children simultaneously, ranging from infants to pre-teens. Beyond traditional babysitting, I also have experience in educational settings; I worked as a tutor for first-grade and kindergarten students and was part of an after-school program at a school, providing care and engaging activities for younger children. On a personal note, I have two younger siblings whom I largely helped to raise, which provided me with invaluable hands-on knowledge of daily childcare, including feeding, changing, comforting, and entertaining infants and toddlers.
