Hello! I am Erica, a sophomore in college studying English and Business Management, and Iβve spent years working with children through summer camps, youth nonprofits, and babysitting. Iβve cared for kiddos from 7 months to 14 years old, so Iβm just as comfortable with bottles and bedtime routines as I am with homework help and keeping older kids entertained. Iβm big on creating a fun, safe, and positive environment. Whether that means crafts, games, outdoor time, or just making sure your child feels heard and cared for. Iβm also CPR/First Aid certified, trained in Mental Health First Aid, and a mandated reporter in both Illinois and Florida, so your childβs safety and wellbeing are always my top priority. Parents would describe me as reliable, patient, and easy to communicate with and kids usually just say I'm relatable. Thank you for taking the time to read this, Iβd love to be a helping hand for your family!
