I've always been passionate about helping children grow and develop, and I'm thrilled to be a babysitter with over a year of experience. My formal education and training, coupled with my warm and nurturing personality, make me an excellent choice for childcare. I'm comfortable enforcing household rules while still being friendly and approachable. I love playing all kinds of games with children, from outdoor sports to board games. I'm also happy to help with cooking and meal preparation. I'm First Aid and CPR trained and am always looking for opportunities to further my knowledge and skills. I'm fluent in English and Spanish. Whether it's through regular updates or at pick-up time, I'll keep you informed about your child's day. Your family will feel supported, and your children will be safe and happy in my care.
