Experience: 5 yrs
I have always been passionate about fostering children's growth and development. My positive experiences in previous babysitting roles further solidified my desire to positively impact young lives. I am a patient, calm, creative, and imaginative individual. I make myself friendly and approachable to children to make them feel comfortable and safe in my care. As an experienced caregiver with five years of experience, I am comfortable caring for one child at a time. I follow the parents' lead in enforcing household rules. Regarding communication with parents, I provide verbal updates at pickup, regular updates via text or phone call, and I always follow the parents' preferred communication method. Whether we're playing outdoor sports, technology-based games and apps, educational games that promote leaning, or classic board games and puzzles, I always aim to ensure that playtime is both fun and engaging for the children in my care. 2025/twin 7mo old boys, 18 mo boy, 5 mo.

Carole cared for our 7-year-month old twin sons part-time. She was so attentive to the needs of the boys while also checking in with us, as parents, consistently to ensure comfortability and needs were met as the boys grew. Carole was more than punctual- she arrived early and consistently throughout our time with her. We were grateful for how she showed up for our children while we had work obligations. She sent photos and communicated regularly with updates about the twins' days. She is caring, peaceful, a great multi-tasker, and energetic. Carole would go above and beyond and complete tasks that were not asked of her to honor the cleanliness and routine of our home. We would have continued to work with Carole consistently, but our needs for care shifted. She still checks in with us regularly and loves to hear updates on how the boys are doing. We are grateful to have worked with her. Any family would be lucky to have her care for their child or children!
