I absolutely love being a sitter because it gives me the chance to make a positive impact in children’s lives. Growing up with several siblings, I’ve always been surrounded by young ones, and that has given me a natural understanding of how to care for kids in a way that’s both fun and supportive. I have a younger brother who is autistic, which has further deepened my ability to be patient, empathetic, and creative in my approach to caregiving.

Though I may not have professional sitter training, my hands-on experience with my brother and other children has taught me how to engage with kids of various needs and personalities. I’m comfortable with creating a structured yet flexible environment, making sure everyone feels heard, supported, and safe. I’m skilled in managing routines, promoting social interactions, and finding ways to make daily tasks enjoyable.

If you’re looking for someone with a genuine love for kids and a background that includes patience and adaptability, I’d love the opportunity to sit for your family!

I've earned the New York State Seal of Biliteracy, which demonstrates my proficiency in reading, writing, and speaking English and Spanish, and I'm currently working on my Civil Literacy Seal! In school, I’ve helped friends and classmates study and spent time supporting younger students with their homework. Those experiences taught me how to be patient and be able to explain things in a way that actually makes sense. I meet people where they’re at. Everything I’ve learned so far helps me show up as someone reliable, understanding, and ready to help other students feel more confident.

I am a sophomore at Mizzou, studying Natural Resource Science and Management. Last semester, I worked at a daycare through my church specifically for toddlers. However, I am open to any age of kid! I also love dogs, and have my own chocolate lab! Unfortunately, I am very allergic to cats, so households with cats are out for me. In high school I was a lifeguard, so I know CPR, First Aid, and can operate an AED. I love to bring crafts for the kiddos to work on, and I can also help with any subject of homework.

I’m a responsible and caring 16-year-old with 7 years of babysitting experience and 5 years of pet sitting experience. I began babysitting at a young age by helping care for younger siblings, family members, and family friends’ children, which taught me how to be patient, attentive, and creative in keeping kids engaged and happy. I’m especially comfortable with toddlers and young children, and I always prioritize safety, fun, and positive interaction.

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.
