Graduate who loves fostering creativity

I love painting, crafting, gardening, and hiking. I think children deserve to have their creativity and interests fostered in a caring environment!

If you're looking for someone who will ensure a fun time, alongside learning that doesn't feel like learning, then I'm who you're looking for! I can help with homework for older kids and get younger ones out into nature to learn through experience. Or we can spend time inside crafting and fulling their inner creativity! I'm open to different parenting and learning styles, I just truly enjoy fostering young minds!

I have a Bachelor's in Agroecology with a focus on community systems. My education included classes like Psychology and Introduction to Teaching. I was also a math and science tutor during uni for children 10-18. My most formal role was as an Ecological Camp Educator for three months at the North Carolina Botanical Gardens for ages four to ten in 2023. However, I am one of seven and have been taking care of my younger siblings since I could hold a bottle. When I was 13, I was the assistant coach for the 5U cheerleading team for my church. I then went on to babysit for multiple families throughout my later teen years, becoming a regular nanny for one family. I also lead children's workshops with a community farm. I am CPR-certified for infants to adults.

Top 10 Tips For Hiring A Pet Sitter

Follow these handy tips for hiring a pet sitter to ensure your furry family members are safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away.

1. Check Experience

Ask how long they’ve been pet sitting and what types of pets they’ve cared for. Experience with your specific type or breed is a big plus.

2. Verify Credentials

Look for pet CPR/first aid certification, pet care training, or memberships in professional pet-sitting associations.

3. Ask for References

Speak with past clients to confirm reliability, trustworthiness, and quality of care.

4. Meet in Person

Schedule a meet-and-greet to see how your pet reacts to the sitter and ensure a comfortable connection.

5. Discuss Duties Clearly

Define whether they’ll walk, feed, administer medication, groom, or provide other services. Be specific about expectations.

6. Check Availability

Ensure the sitter can meet your schedule, including holidays, weekends, or overnight needs.

7. Understand Rates & Payment

Clarify fees, overtime charges, and any additional costs (like travel, supplies, or emergency care).

8. Review Emergency Plans

Ask how they handle medical issues, accidents, or other emergencies, including access to your vet.

9. Communication Style

Confirm how often and in what form they’ll provide updates—texts, photos, or reports.

10. Start with a Trial

Consider a short test visit or day before leaving for an extended period to see how your pet responds and assess the sitter’s reliability.
