About Anita

Experience: 8 yrs

I have babysat many- most of whom were of the ages three to 8-years-old. I usually babysit two children at a time but there have been a couple of times I have babysat more at a time. I also took care of infants from 7 months to a year. I like to keep the children active in games or any activities such as art so they can keep the artwork afterwards. If there is a park down the street or in the neighborhood, I can take them there if the weather is nice to have some outdoor play. I am also a mother of a wonderful soon to be 3-year-old which I hope is alright if he tags along and babysits with me. I am looking to have him with me to expand his social play and also care for other littles along the way! CPR/First Aid Cetrified

Anita has been watching my kids since they were babies. She’s so patient and fun. My kids love her! She can handle everything including diapers, meals, bedtime, homework, play, etc. She’s extremely responsible and I feel very comfortable knowing my kids are in her care.
