Hi! My name is Evelin and I’m an organized, caring, and experienced caregiver who truly loves being around children. As a mom of two, I understand the importance of patience, safety, and creating a warm, supportive environment. I am CPR certified and confident in handling a variety of situations with calmness and care. During the day, I work one-on-one with Dr. Kristen Marten at UW Health, a pediatrician who cares for newborns, toddlers, and teenagers. In this role, I support her patients directly, which has given me extensive hands-on experience with children of all ages and needs. This background has strengthened my ability to communicate, multitask, and respond quickly and responsibly. I have a passion for helping kids learn, grow, and feel comfortable, and I truly enjoy every moment I get to spend with them. With my professional experience, personal parenting background, and dedication to high-quality care, I would love the opportunity to show you that your child is safe, supported, and well cared for with me
