Hello! I’m Ayanna, a dedicated and caring babysitter with over 6 years of experience in providing exceptional childcare. Currently, I am pursuing my MBD (Master of Business Development) graduate degree, which has helped me develop strong organizational and communication skills that I apply to my babysitting work. I am passionate about creating a safe, fun, and enriching environment for children. Whether it’s assisting with homework, organizing creative activities, or preparing healthy snacks, I’m committed to tailoring my care to suit each child’s individual needs and interests. I’ve had the pleasure of working with kids of all ages and truly enjoy the connections I build with each family I work with. Additionally, I am pet-friendly and comfortable around animals, as I own a dog myself. I understand how important it is to make sure your pets are also cared for, so I can offer pet-sitting services as well if needed. With my experience, strong work ethic, and nurturing approach, I strive to ensure that you feel confident and at ease when leaving your children in my care. I look forward to the opportunity to work with your family!
