About Natalie

I've been babysitting since I was 14 years old and have experience caring for children from newborns through middle school ages. I currently work full-time as a special education paraprofessional with students ranging from kindergarten through 8th grade, which has helped me develop patience, strong communication skills, and the ability to support children with a variety of needs and personalities. In addition to my professional experience, I also work weekly in the 2-year-old room at my church, so I'm very comfortable with toddlers and younger children. I love creating a fun, safe, and supportive environment where kids can learn, play, and feel comfortable being themselves. I'm happy to help with cooking, cleaning, errands, transportation, activities, and keeping kids engaged throughout the summer. I've participated in tennis, softball, volleyball, band, and choir, so I enjoy encouraging kids in sports, creativity, and extracurricular activities as well.
