About James

Experience: 3 yrs

Hi there! I'm James, a dedicated child care professional with 4+ years of experience working with children of all ages. My journey into child care began at in my teens after my neighbors recognized in me a natural ability to connect with, and safely mind, children, I was put in charge of babysitting for the street. I've fostered this skill further through my part time job as a chess tutor for children aged 2 to 6. I'm skilled in designing age-appropriate activities that promote both learning and fun, from interactive story time and educational games to outdoor adventures and artistic projects. I believe in encouraging children's independence while providing the support and guidance they need to thrive. I look forward to the opportunity to bring my enthusiasm and commitment to your family!

I had the pleasure of hiring James as a babysitter several years ago, and he was truly exceptional. From the very start, James demonstrated a natural affinity for caring for children. His warm demeanor, attentiveness, and engaging personality made him a favorite with my kids. James was incredibly reliable, always arriving on time and handling every situation with calm and professionalism. His creativity in planning activities kept my children entertained and happy, and I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such capable hands. It’s clear that James has a genuine passion for working with children, and his ability to connect with them on their level is remarkable. I highly recommend James to anyone in need of a trustworthy, skilled, and kind babysitter.
