My name is Serra, and I am a senior at Radford University studying Interior Design. I have about three years of experience caring for infants and toddlers. I have experience caring for children with special needs and understand the importance of being patient, attentive, and flexible with each child’s individual needs and personality. I love engaging children in imaginative play, arts and crafts, reading, outdoor activities, and other age-appropriate activities that encourage creativity and learning. I am responsible, dependable, and comfortable helping with routines such as meals, naps, playtime, and bedtime. I want children to feel comfortable and cared for while their parents are away, and I always do my best to make babysitting a positive and enjoyable experience for everyone. I would love the opportunity to get to know your family and provide your children with attentive, caring, and reliable care!
