Hi! I'm Ava, I am passionate about helping children grow in fun, supportive, and engaging environments. I love being a sitter because it's rewarding to watch kids explore, learn, and build confidence through play and encouragement. I work at a preschool with toddlers and am seeking a weekend position. I have experience with children from infancy through elementary age in preschool and aftercare, assisting with routines, activities, positive behavior guidance, and one-on-one support. I'm CPR and First Aid certified (AHA, 2025) and working toward my CDA (expected March 2026). I started working with kids at 17 through my high school program, teaching elementary students about hygiene and hair care. I'm warm, reliable, and enthusiastic. My top childcare skills are patience, communication, and adaptability, and I truly care about giving my best to every child I work with.
I met Ava through my children’s daycare, where she was their preschool teacher, and her professionalism and skill stood out immediately. She brings true teacher-level competence to childcare: structured, attentive, calm, and deeply aware of children’s needs. When I needed care while traveling for work, I trusted her completely with my two children. Ava communicated clearly, followed routines seamlessly, and created a safe, positive environment where my children felt comfortable and supported. I returned to happy kids and a well-managed home. She is reliable, thoughtful, and exceptionally capable. I highly recommend Ava to any family looking for experienced, high-quality care.
