Experience: 10 yrs
Mother to a 9-month-old plus two bonus sons! For over a decade, I've found immense joy caring for young ones & helping families. My babysitting experiences solidified my passion for making a positive impact on children's lives, and I am committed to providing reliable care. I am patient, creative, & friendly. I communicate with parents through chats at pickup, and regular updates via text. I am comfortable enforcing household rules. I enjoy playing outdoor games, board games, and educational activities with children aged 0-3 and up to age 11. I'm comfortable caring for two children at a time. I have some college education and am certified in First Aid and CPR. I am happy to help with cooking, light housekeeping, crafts, and swimming supervision. I have a car and am comfortable with pets. I'm excited to bring my experience and enthusiasm to your family, creating a fun and safe environment where your child can thrive. (Will have my 9-month-old with me, if that is OK with the family)
Niki is wonderful with children! I have watched her care for kids (newborn - 10 year olds) through various events (group setting, 1-1 setting, etc.) and she is very calm. She knows how to distract a child from having a meltdown and make them laugh when they are feeling bored or missing their parents. She is great at communicating and sending pictures as well.
