Faith
I pour my heart into my role as an Infant and Toddler Teacher, with over 3 years of experience caring for little ones from 6 weeks to 5 years old. I hold a Child Development degree and am excited to begin my journey in Nursing school this spring, blending my knowledge of early education with a future focus on child health. I thrive on bringing joy and happiness into their precious lives, creating engaging activities just for them, and cherishing every moment I get to watch each child grow, learn, and blossom.

Along with babysitting, I can also do meal prep / light cooking and household chores if needed.

Mariama
Hi! My name is Mariama (or Mari for short), and I’m a college student who loves working with kids. I’ve gained hands-on experience caring for my younger siblings and cousins, and I also volunteer at a local school, helping with classroom activities and supporting younger students. I’m responsible, patient, and enjoy keeping kids engaged through fun, creative, and safe play. Whether you need a dependable sitter for a night out or occasional help, I’d love to be someone you can count on!

I’m excited to expand that experience through SitterTree! I bring a fun, energetic presence while also maintaining a great balance between playtime and structure. In addition to childcare, I have experience as a caregiver for elderly and disabled individuals, which has strengthened my patience, attentiveness, and sense of responsibility. I am also BLS certified and committed to providing a safe, caring, and positive environment for every child I work with.

Reina
Hi there! My name is Reina, and I am a dedicated caregiver with a deep love for supporting children’s growth and play. My most extensive experience comes from being a mom to my own energetic 3year old son (who is nearly four!), which has given me hands on expertise in everything from toddler meal prep to navigating big emotions. In addition to my full time role as a parent, I have experience babysitting my niece and nephew ages 4 and 6. I’m comfortable managing multiple children at once and love creating a safe, fun, and engaging environment for them to thrive.
