I am a warm, responsible, and experienced caregiver with many years of hands-on work supporting children of different ages, from infants to teens. I currently live in Ottawa with my parents and my older brother, and I value being part of a close, supportive family - something I naturally bring into the homes I work in.

I'm a newcomer to Canada and I'm currently looking for job opportunities after recently obtaining a Work Permit.

I'm really responsible and I would put all the effort in this job. I don't have profesional experience as a sitter yet. I have only cared for nieces and nephews so far :)

Master's Degree

I have solid experience in childcare. Since August 2024, I’ve been working full-time as an educator at La Petite Ourse elementary school in Gatineau, where I care for children aged 4 to 12. I ensure their safety, lead educational and fun activities, support daily routines (snacks, hygiene, transitions), and manage behavior with kindness and patience. Before that, I also worked as a teacher for three years in my home country, which helped me develop strong skills in communication, organization, and group management. I’ve also completed a certified first aid course, so I’m trained to respond in emergencies. On a personal note, I have two younger brothers, so I’ve been around kids my whole life. I’m single and very available, which allows me to work flexible hours, including evenings and weekends. Outside of work, I enjoy reading, music, educational games… and basketball — even if I’m not very good at it (but I still try! 😅). I’m a warm, responsible, and caring person. French is my first language, and I speak English at an intermediate level. I truly care about children’s well-being and always aim to create a safe, positive, and supportive environment. That’s why I believe I’d be a great fit for any childcare position. My name is Erika, I’m 21 years old.
