I am a goal-oriented and creative person with a higher education background and a passion for continuous development. My experience in online business allows me to adapt easily to changes, find solutions to complex problems, and think strategically. Family is a top priority in my life—I am happily married, a mother of two, and a proud grandmother of two wonderful granddaughters. Every weekend, I spend time with them, organizing engaging and educational activities. We play board games, read, do arts and crafts, go for walks, and simply enjoy being together. I have a lot of patience and know how to connect with children, creating a warm and friendly environment for them. Most importantly, I always prioritize their safety, carefully monitoring their well-being and ensuring they feel secure and happy. Beyond family, I enjoy traveling, self-improvement, and reading. I recently moved from Ontario to Quebec, embracing a new chapter in my life. I am fluent in both written and spoken English. Additionally, I have always been interested in mathematics—it is both challenging and fascinating, making it a true intellectual pursuit for me. One of my favorite hobbies is creating paintings and handmade items from epoxy resin. For me, this is not just a form of art but also a way to express my inner state, relax from daily routines, and restore balance. Working with epoxy resin allows me to immerse myself in the creative process, disconnect from stress, and create something truly unique that reflects my emotions and mood. I am a responsible and attentive person with strong organizational and time-management skills, especially when it comes to caring for children. My top priority is to ensure their safety, comfort, and joyful experiences while they are in my care. For 12 years, I have been a grandmother, and each weekend, I spend time with my grandkids. We go to the playground, I feed them homemade food, play board games, read books, bake and cook together, and have fun. I always ensure they are safe, engaged, and learning through play. I organize creative activities, such as arts and crafts, storytelling, and educational games, to develop their skills and imagination. I am patient, caring, and experienced in handling children's needs, from meal preparation to bedtime routines, making sure they feel loved and happy

I have a younger sister who is 10 years younger than I am. Growing up, I often took care of her while my mother was working. This experience helped me develop a good understanding of young children’s language and needs. For three years, I was involved in missionary work at church, where I taught middle and high school students and participated in cultural performances. I also have experience preparing meals for cancer patients, which taught me responsibility and care. My main interest is dance, especially K-pop dance, which I enjoy performing and teaching. If children like dancing, I can play and teach them as well. Being Korean, I can also share Korean language and culture with children interested in learning, while I continue improving my English through interaction with them. Since coming to Canada, I have had two babysitting experiences, during which I engaged children in "teacher-student" role-play. I acted as a student while the children took the teacher role, encouraging them to naturally practice teaching, and they really enjoyed it. I am patient, responsible, and enjoy creating a fun and educational environment for children. Childcare Experience: I have experience teaching children aged 4 to 12 at an English academy in Korea. Additionally, I served as a youth teacher for middle and high school students at my church. Since moving to Canada, I have worked twice as a babysitter for friends’ children, caring for a 5-year-old girl and a 7-year-old boy. How I would care for your child: I plan to provide a safe and nurturing environment for your child. I will engage them with age-appropriate activities such as reading, playing educational games, and creative play. I am patient, attentive, and flexible to meet the child’s individual needs. Although my English is not perfect, But I enjoy playing with children and learning English through our time together. At the same time, I can teach them some Korean language and culture, making the experience fun and enriching for both of us.

I’m a young retiree who truly enjoys being part of family life. I bring lots of energy, flexibility, and a caring touch to everything I do—whether it’s engaging with the kids, organizing the day, or keeping things running smoothly around the house. For the past 2.5 years, I’ve worked part-time as a Private Personal Assistant for a household with three children. The role combined childcare, household management, and personal support for a busy physician, and I loved being a reliable, steady presence in their daily lives. I’d describe myself as calm, dependable, and genuinely caring, and those who welcome me into their home will also find me attentive, trustworthy, and easy to work with. I’m happy to help with children, household tasks, and, if you have pets, I’ll gladly care for cats, dogs, and other furry family members too! Lifetime Mother and Grandmother...and for the last 2.5 years I have been employed as a Private Personal Assistant to a licensed Attending Physician/Hospitalist providing professional, personal, and household management (private house; 3 children).

I'm Blythe, a 20-year-old student looking for a family in need of regular childcare. I come from Sudbury in Northern Ontario. I grew up as the oldest of 3 girls and 2 cats. I currently live alone in Hintonburg. I'm attending Algonquin College for the Bachelor of Early Learning and Community Development program! I've been a dancer since I was 2 and also did gymnastics, swimming, skiing, figure skating, and soccer at one point or another. I've always had a passion for the arts in all forms. I enjoy singing, playing guitar, baking, gardening, and photography. Although they aren't hobbies of mine, I'm always down to engage in sports, theatre, video games, and more if that's what your children seek! I value keeping the body active and healthy while taking care of our minds and engaging in as many experiences as we can squeeze into this lifetime. I support people of all backgrounds and walks of life, and will do whatever I can to match your values when it comes to taking care of your children! For 8 years I babysat for one family and their 2 children, starting when they were 1 and 3 until when they were 9 and 11. I also babysat for other families occasionally. This summer I started working at a daycare with kids ages 1-4, working 4 x 10 hour shifts a week. I was responsible for a maximum of 5 children at a time. I also did a 3-week job at a summer school program with kids ages 9-13. I have no issue providing additional household tasks and pet care! Bachelor's Degree (in progress)
