Hi there 👋🏻 My name is Angela and I grew an affinity for taking care of children after my nephew was born. He is now approaching 3 years old (time flew by). Spending time with him sparked a genuine love for caring for children, helping them learn, and creating a safe, fun environment where they can thrive. That experience inspired me to join SitterTree, where I can extend the same warmth, attention, and reliability to other families.
