My favorite thing about working with children is seeing their progress and their improvement. I love being able to make a difference in every child's life. I enjoy making lesson plans for the children and combining fun educational games and fun activities that the children will enjoy. I like reading books to the kids and creating arts and crafts.

I enjoy knowing that I am an influential part of their lives. Teaching them, and guiding them is a satisfying feeling.

I have babysat for a host of different families both in the DC area and in my hometown of Yorktown, VA. From infants to middle schoolers, continuous diaper changes to baths and homework, after-school activities, play-dates, birthday parties; I have experience with all of it, and am therefore very comfortable with children of all ages and temperaments. I can both balance a busy family schedule, and find creative adventures to fill a free day!
When I watch kids I normally like to keep them engaged in either arts and crafts, puzzles, trains/blocks, going on a walk, or a trip to the park. Hands-on playing and learning is so important for development and I try and incorporate that within the time I'm watching them!!

Thank you and I look forward to watching your kids!!

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 excitability and willingness to learn new things. I entertain children through reading books, playing board games, playing/doing activities outdoors, drawing/coloring and arts and crafts.

I love the honesty and purity of children. I enjoy cooking and baking, playing games, being outside, and participating in sports. I also enjoy arts and crafts!

They make you see how simple things can make you happy. They're innocent to the world, and children makes everyone happy
