Hi! My name is Maddie, and I have over 3 years of experience working with young children as a kindergarten teacher at a small private school. I absolutely love helping kids grow, learn, and have fun in a safe and caring environment.In addition to teaching, I've also spent 5 years coaching club water polo and swim, which has given me even more experience supporting kids of all ages-encouraging teamwork, building confidence, and staying active. I'm creative, responsible, and calm under pressure, and I bring that same energy into babysitting.Whether we're doing crafts, playing games, reading stories, or just enjoying a quiet afternoon, I always focus on creating a positive and engaging experience for your child. I'm CPR/First Aid certified, and I'm happy to help with routines, mealtime, bedtime, and anything in between!Looking forward to connecting with your family!

Hello there!Caring for children has always been a passion of mine. I have experience caring for children in both professional and personal settings. I worked with Jumpstart, where I helped young children learn and grow through fun, engaging activities. In addition to helping raise my younger sister for over 11 years, I've also cared for children from other families, giving me experience with different routines, personalities, and age groups.I recently graduated with a Bachelor's degree in Human Services, and my classes gave me a strong understanding of child development, family dynamics, and how to provide safe, supportive care. My goal is to become a Child and Family Social Worker.I'm dependable, patient, and committed to creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment. I value open communication and would love the opportunity to support your family!
