The Jitter Sitter

About

I take the guess-work out of hiring a realiable, compassionate, childcare giver. I'm very hands-on when it comes to caring for children and I enjoy being with them as they discover and explore new things. I believe that, rather than being solely instructed,
children's learning experiences are better enriched via pedagogy and by watching and observing. For me, this has also proven to be true when it comes to encouraging positive behavior. About me: I am the eldest of four. I enjoy playing tennis and reading during my free time.

I have been babysitting since I was 13 years old and have worked as both a live-in and live -out nanny for multiple families with children's ages ranging from newborn to teen-- so I come with plenty of experience and references. :) Additionally, I worked at an Apple-accredited private school as an assistant teacher and did volunteer work at a local middle-school in their home-economics department, while also volunteering in the autistic unit at their sister elementary school.

An abstract of my duties, in my combined roles as a child-caregiver, have included (but were not limited to): basic childcare (feeding, bathing, dressing, diaper changing, etc...). , homework help, classroom supervision, organizing play-dates, children's party planning, life-guarding, light cooking, light housework, and as needed overnight supervision/weekend supervision.

My availability is flexible and I will come to you.
