Empathetic, caring, and kind caregiver

I have always been the caretaker of the family. I have experience being the matriarch in my immediate family, I have taken care of my little cousins countless times, and I have immense experience cooking and cleaning. Most of my professional experience has been aquatics.(4 years) which included lifeguarding, water safety instructor, and swim coach positions. I am certainly not shy to first aid care, planning and strategy, compassion, cleaning biological messes, attention to detail, and safety. I am very nurturing and love to teach and support. I am studying environmental science and I have the passion for creativity like arts and crafts. I believe learning is important and can be fun! I can’t wait to meet you and be an addition to your family!

Love working with kids : )

Hi, my name is Natasha. I'm 17 years old. I completed lifeguard training at a summer camp in New Hampshire. I have also taken CPR classes for babies and up, as well as first aid. I always carry a first aid kit wherever I go. Additionally, I am taking early childhood education in high school and have undergone specialized training in childcare. I am skilled in organizing and leading various sports activities, such as swimming, and I also enjoy teaching children how to draw. I believe these experiences have equipped me with the necessary skills to provide exceptional babysitting services.

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

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.

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.

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