Shirley

Hi! I’m someone who has always had a heart for caring for kids. Coming from a big family of 10, I naturally stepped into a caregiving role from a young age. As the oldest along with my twin sister. I helped raise my younger siblings, including siblings with special needs. This gave me a lot of hands-on experience, patience, and understanding in working with children of all ages and abilities. Why I Love Being a Sitter I love being a sitter because it feels like an extension of what I’ve done my whole life: helping children feel safe, supported, and excited to learn and play. I truly enjoy building relationships with families and being someone, they can trust. My Experience Besides caring for my own siblings, I have babysat for multiple families in my community over the years. I also assisted with a family childcare business, where I helped manage daily routines, supervised groups of children, and supported a warm, structured environment for kids to thrive in.
