About Tako

Experience: 20 yrs

I'm an experienced childcare provider with a passion for fostering children's growth and development. I'm patient, calm, creative, and friendly. With 20 years of experience, I'm comfortable caring for up to four children of all ages. My previous babysitting roles and my education have given me the skills to provide a safe, nurturing, and educational environment for kids. I'm also CPR and First Aid certified. I believe that open and honest communication is key, so I always follow the parents' preferred communication method to keep them informed about their child's day and address any issues promptly. I'm comfortable enforcing household rules while still maintaining a positive and fun atmosphere. I love playing outdoor sports, board games, and educational games with children. Besides childcare, I'm also happy to help with cooking, meal preparation, carpooling, light housekeeping, travel, and swimming supervision. I'm a non-smoker and comfortable with pets.

Tako has been with our family since our son was 2 months old and has quickly become like family to us. She is incredibly knowledgable and qualified but most importantly loves what she does. Tako is extremely respectful of the parents wishes but is happy to offer insight and her expertise when asked. She is always proactive and it is amazing how much she can get done while constantly singing, playing, talking to and holding our child. Tako took care of all things baby (laundry, feedings, diapers, stretches, making baby food) in addition to light cooking, tidying and laundry. Our son loves his "Tako time" and they have such a special bond. She is truly one of a kind and we were so happy (and feel lucky) to have found her!
