Summary

As I approach on 8 years of experience babysitting and nannying, I am committed to being a reliable caregiver - creating safe and nurturing environments for kids of all ages. Known for my kindness, honesty, and empathy, i find that I thrive working with children. Working with kids not only broadens my perspective on life, but it constantly challenges me to strive to become a better, more level-headed individual. I am equipped at managing household tasks, maintaining schedules, and fostering relationships with children, as well as parents.
