Hi! I’ve been babysitting for about 5 years and was a nanny for a family with three boys from 2024–2026 during the school years while I was in highschool and this past summer. I’m very comfortable handling busy households and keeping kids on a good routine while still making sure they have fun.With the boys, I made meals and snacks, helped with homework, drove them to sports practices and activities, planned fun day trips, and handled the full bedtime routine. I’m used to juggling different ages and personalities, and I always try to create a positive, active, and supportive environment.I’m reliable, patient, and hands-on. Whether it’s playing outside with the kids, helping with schoolwork, or keeping things calm and organized at night, I’m happy to jump in wherever needed!

I have been babysitting for work since I was 13, and have had an abundance of experience with children of all age groups since then. I am able to cook as long as I am given proper information on kids dietary restrictions and allergies for safety. I love, love, love animals and am happy to be around any family pets! I look forward to working with the families of New Orleans!
