Experience: 4 yrs
I have always had a passion for working with children. My experience began by caring for children throughout the summers while growing up and later babysitting during school breaks. I have a fun, patient, and bubbly personality and strive to create a safe, positive environment where children feel supported, valued, and encouraged to learn. I enjoy cooking, baking, painting, reading, and spending time outdoors, and I love incorporating those interests into fun, age-appropriate activities. Next year, I will begin college to pursue my goal of becoming a pediatric psychiatrist, making childcare a field I truly care about. I am CPR and First Aid certified for infants, children, and adults, and I am committed to providing dependable, compassionate care while giving parents peace of mind knowing their children are safe, happy, and genuinely cared for.
Lily is there when I need help! Being a new single mom and having to juggle work and my daughter. She has been a lifesaver! My daughter is autistic and she adapts to her needs as well as being a great support for me.
