Hi! I’m a compassionate, patient, and energetic caregiver with extensive experience supporting children from newborns all the way through their teenage years. Over the years, I’ve worked in a wide range of settings—including private homes, daycare centers, and larger group environments—which has helped me develop strong skills in multitasking, communication, and creating a safe, nurturing atmosphere for every child in my care.

I have hands-on experience with multiples, including twins and siblings close in age, and I’m comfortable balancing routines, personalities, and developmental needs simultaneously. I’ve also had the privilege of working with children on the autism spectrum and take a thoughtful, individualized approach to supporting their unique strengths and needs.

Whether I’m soothing a newborn, helping a toddler explore their world, or guiding older kids through homework and daily life skills, I always aim to provide a warm, structured, and positive environment. My goal is to help children feel understood, supported, and excited to learn—and to give parents peace of mind knowing their little ones are in caring, capable hands.

Hi Everyone! I am currently an undergraduate student at Appalachian State University. I plan on becoming a pediatric occupational therapist, so child development is super important to me. I have 5 years of child care experience, including babysitting, being a day care teacher, coaching children's gymnastics, and being an occupational therapy intern. I have adult and pediatric CPR and First Aid training. I am also SIDS certified. In addition, I am a volunteer at the hospital and have experience in emergency situations. I love and have worked with all kids, but I work especially well with infants and toddlers. I have worked with newborns ( right after they were born) all the way up to 13 years. I can drive, do housework, and take care of pets. Babysitting brings me such a sense of joy and fun! I look forward to possibly working with you!

Hi Everyone! I am currently an undergraduate student at Appalachian State University. I plan on becoming a pediatric occupational therapist, so child development is super important to me. I have 5 years of child care experience, including babysitting, being a day care teacher, coaching children's gymnastics, and being an occupational therapy intern. I have adult and pediatric CPR and First Aid training. I am also SIDS certified. In addition, I am a volunteer at the hospital and have experience in emergency situations. I love and have worked with all kids, but I work especially well with infants and toddlers. I have worked with newborns ( right after they were born) all the way up to 13 years. I can drive, do housework, and take care of pets.

My skills and interests:

  • Music
  • Dance
  • Reading / storytelling

1. Look for relevant experience

Choose babysitters who have worked with children with similar diagnoses, behaviors, or medical needs.

2. Check training and certifications

Ask about CPR, first aid, and any specialized training (e.g., administering medication, ABA therapy, seizure response).

3. Ask detailed questions

Discuss how they would handle meltdowns, medical emergencies, or communication challenges.

4. Request references

Speak to families of children with special needs they’ve cared for before.

5. Arrange a meet-and-greet

Observe how they interact with your child and whether they connect in a patient, caring way.

6. Be clear about routines

Provide written instructions for meals, bedtime, medications, and calming strategies.

7. Communicate about triggers and supports

Share sensory sensitivities, behavioral strategies, and comfort items.

8. Confirm reliability

Ensure they can commit to consistent care and handle unexpected situations calmly.

9. Start with short sessions

Begin with trial sittings so your child and babysitter can build trust gradually.

10. Trust your instincts

Choose someone who shows genuine empathy, patience, and respect for your child’s individuality.
