As a caregiver with five years of experience, I'm dedicated to creating a nurturing and educational environment for children. My passion for childcare stems from my rewarding experiences as a babysitter, where I discovered the joy of positively impacting young lives. My patient and calm demeanor, coupled with my creative and imaginative nature, allows me to connect with children effortlessly. I prioritize open communication with parents, ensuring that they are well-informed about their child's day and any concerns that arise. My comfort in enforcing household rules ensures a consistent and structured environment for the children in my care. I excel at engaging children in a variety of games, both educational and recreational. From outdoor sports and physical games to board games and puzzles, tailor my activities to foster learning and enjoyment. My enthusiasm for swimming extends to teaching children how to swim, given my skills as a swim instructor and summer camp counselor.

Avery has been an absolutely amazing babysitter for our two boys, ages 6 and 12. She’s kind, patient, and has a special ability to connect with each of them in their own unique way. Whether she’s dressing up in costumes, playing sports, or just hanging out, she brings so much joy and energy into our home. The boys adore her and constantly ask when she’s coming over next! Avery is always punctual, respectful, and professional when interacting with us, while also being warm, loving, and playful with the kids. She strikes the perfect balance, which is something truly rare. She’s extremely trustworthy and dependable — qualities that give us total peace of mind when she’s with our children. We’ve lived next door to Avery for about five years and have seen firsthand the strong values and close-knit support of her family. Without a doubt, Avery is the best babysitter we’ve ever had, and we feel so lucky to have her in our lives.
