Hi! I’m a caring and responsible person who loves being around kids. Most of my babysitting experience comes from watching children for friends and family as well as volunteering at the church to care for the children. I’m also a mom myself, so I’m very comfortable taking care of little ones. Im also a young mother and have a lot of energy which is perfect for your children. I have experience with feeding, diaper changes, nap time, playing with them, and keeping them safe and entertained. I’m patient, reliable, and always make sure the kids I’m watching feel comfortable and cared for. Please ask me any questions!

Hi! My name is Karen S, I’m 19 and currently enrolled at a local college taking mostly online classes, so I have a flexible schedule!I’ve been babysitting for families since I was 15 and have experience with children of many ages up to 8 years old, including caring for up to two children at a time. I also completed three years of Child Development in high school, which really helped me learn about children and their different stages of development.I’m CPR, First Aid, and BLS certified, and I’m fluent in both English and Spanish. I’m a very patient, caring, and responsible person, and I always try to make sure children feel comfortable, listened to, and safe while they’re in my care. I love doing crafts, baking, reading, and finding fun activities to keep kids engaged. I’m also comfortable caring for babies and have experience with different stages of baby care.I have my own car and, with parents’ permission, I’m happy to take kids to local parks, libraries, or other activities. I’m also comfortable preparing simple snacks based on parents’ preferences and cleaning up after the kids and anything we use during our time together. I really enjoy working with children and would love the opportunity to get to know your family!
