About Natalie

Hi, my name is Natalie. I'm a reliable, patient, & attentive caregiver with hands-on experience caring for children of different ages. I'm also a parent, which has given me a strong understanding of children's routines, safety, & emotional needs. I'm available for occasional & weekend childcare, including date nights & evening or night support. I focus on creating a safe, calm, & engaging environment where children feel comfortable & parents feel confident. I have several years of hands-on childcare experience, including caring for toddlers and school-age children, as well as parenting experience. I'm a former U. S. Navy service member with eight years of active duty experience & first responder training as a firefighter. This background has strengthened my sense of responsibility, safety awareness, & ability to remain calm in emergencies. I'm also open to caring for children in my home when appropriate & am happy to discuss details with families.
