My name is Yvonne , I am American Caribbean, I am writing to introduce myself as a reliable and experienced babysitter who is excited about the opportunity to work with your family. I have been caring for children for over 15 years as a nanny, babysitter, newborn care specialist and have experience with children ranging from infants to teenagers.
I am trained in CPR and First Aid and have completed childcare courses that have equipped me with the skills to handle various situations. I enjoy engaging children in creative activities like arts and crafts, outdoor play, and educational games.
Currently, I am available, Monday to Friday. Weekends by a discussion first and am flexible for occasional babysitting needs beyond those hours. During babysitting sessions, I am happy to assist with meal preparation, bedtime routines, and light housekeeping.
If you would like, I can provide references from other families I've worked with. I look forward to the opportunity to discuss how I can support your family and ensure a safe and fun environment for your children.
Thank you for considering me as your babysitter. Please feel free to message me to further discuss your needs or to schedule a meeting.
Best regards,
Yvonne

CPR/First Aid Certified Babysitter & Pet Sitter | Psychology Background | Trusted, Caring, and Reliable
Hi there! I’m Taylor — a compassionate and energetic sitter with a deep love for kids and animals. I recently graduated from Drew University with a degree in Media and Communications and a minor in Psychology, and I’m certified in Adult, Child, and Baby First Aid/CPR/AED by the American Red Cross. I’ve always had a natural connection with children and pets, and I bring a calm, positive presence into every home I work with.
When I’m not babysitting or pet sitting, you can find me spending time with my sweet chocolate lab Otis, coaching tennis, or getting active outdoors. I believe in creating a safe, playful, and supportive environment where kids can thrive — and pets feel just as loved as they do with their owners. I'm here to help your family with genuine care and peace of mind!
