Fostering a nurturing and structured environment for children is my true passion. I've been caring for children since 2016 and have experience with ages one through 11. My Early Childhood Development coursework has helped me develop a patient, calm, and understanding approach. I'm CPR and First Aid certified and always prioritize safety. I love keeping children active and engaged through outdoor activities, sports, board games, creative projects, and educational activities. I'm also happy to help with meals and light housekeeping. My goal is to build genuine connections with children while becoming a dependable and trusted part of your family.
Arie was wonderful! She helped us for two days during the gap between camp ending and school starting, caring for our son and nephew. Even though she didn’t know us or the kids very well, she stepped right in and made everything feel easy. She was responsible, punctual, communicative, and clearly great with the kids. We really appreciated how dependable and comfortable she made the whole experience, and we would absolutely recommend her!
