Hi! I’m a recent University of Waterloo graduate with a degree in Planning, and I’ve always enjoyed spending time with kids and helping them learn and have fun.
I’ve babysat children of all ages, from infants and toddlers to pre-teens, and have experience caring for both individual children and groups. I’m comfortable with everything from regular babysitting and full-day care to date nights and parties. I’m happy to help with meals, bedtime routines, activities, getting outside, or just keeping the kids entertained while you’re away.
I can also help with homework and schoolwork, especially reading, writing, and general school subjects. My university education has given me a strong academic background, and I’m patient when explaining things or working through something a child finds difficult.
I’m responsible, reliable, and easygoing, and I try to make babysitting feel fun and comfortable for the kids rather than just keeping them occupied. I’m also happy to follow your family’s routines and whatever works best for your children!
