While I haven't worked as a traditional babysitter, I have over three years of experience working with children as a dance instructor for Tippi Toes. I taught classes for children ranging from 18 months to 9 years old, leading classes within local preschools as well as community programs. My role involved creating a fun, safe, and engaging environment while managing groups of children with different personalities and needs. This experience helped me develop patience, strong communication skills, and the ability to keep children entertained while ensuring their safety. I'm comfortable supervising young children, leading age-appropriate activities, and helping them feel comfortable, confident, and supported. I'm excited to provide families with dependable, attentive, and caring childcare.

I have always loved being around children. I would volunteer myself to help take care of my younger sibling and all of my younger cousins. I have been enforced to take education as a first priority and thrive from helping others learn. There is nothing more fulfilling then knowing I am assisting in the positive growth of our children. From observing my mom, who is a full-time nanny, I have learned to focus on providing children with creative outlets that don’t involve excessive screen time. Art is a hobby that I partake in when I need to relax from school and I remember being at my most productive whenever I was allowed to be abstract.

I am a dedicated PhD student studying health policy at the University of Iowa with a love for infants and children. I have enjoyed caring for children and working with their families for over 10 years and have come to greatly appreciate those relationships in my life.
