I love being silly and fun with kids. They have an infectious spirit and I love to make them laugh as well as provide a safe and positive environment for them!

My favorite thing about working with children is watching them grow and develop as individuals, and forming a close and trusting relationship with the children I work with.

It is fun and I get to create a meaningful connection with children.

I enjoy being active. I've always been around kids of many different ages. Due to this I love doing various activities from playing sports games outside, doing crafts, playing board games, playing imagination game, or just enjoying a fun movie night. Because I grew up with three sisters, I have always enjoyed various activities. Living with a bigger family has allowed me to know how to be able to accommodate different types of personalities so that everyone is having fun.

I'm a fun-loving babysitter. I simply enjoy spending time with children. I pride myself on being able to play and act goofy with the kids, yet still have them listen and respect me. I love taking children to interactive & fun activities such as the park, zoo, plays, etc. But I can also spend the day at home coloring, dancing, and playing eye spy. It's very easy for me to connect with kids. Keeping the child's well-being  is something I take very seriously. I'm a healthy balance of an easy going/patient attitude, and assertive when needed. I understand the importance of my role, and I'm willing to take on that responsibility.

My favorite thing about working with children is their honesty (which is both a blessing and a curse). Children are the funniest people I know, and more often then not make me laugh harder than most comedians. They have such creative minds and come up with such elaborate ideas -- and even more creative and witty comments about things they do or do not like. It is so nice to hang around children and just watch them enjoy life with the simplest of things, like a joke on a Popsicle stick or shadow puppets on the wall.

My favorite thing about working with children is being able to watch them grow and learn. They know more than one would think and it is interesting to see how their mind works and how smart they really are! I usually try to entertain children with arts and crafts and play games or do activities that promote learning, but are fun, to keep their minds working and to keep them moving. I try to minimize television since it is the summer and most days will be nice. In the summer months, I like to entertain a child but being outside, at the park or at the pool, hanging out and enjoying the sun. I love participating in activities, whether that be a music class or a helping with a sport.
