Hi families! I’m Edina, but I go by Edie! I’m in the process of becoming a special education teacher, and working with children is truly my passion. I’m very active, fun, and love taking kids to the playground, doing pretend play, reading, and creating other engaging activities. I also love creating spaces where kids feel seen, heard, safe, and encouraged to be themselves.
I’m currently studying Elementary Education with a minor in Special Education at Salisbury University. I’m trained in advanced childcare and certified in CPR, AED, and First Aid.
I’ve worked with multiple wonderful families and would love to connect with a few more this season. If you’re looking for a warm, reliable, and fun sitter, feel free to reach out or send me a booking request!
